Evening tour was cooler. Our guide Saif was excellent. He speaks well with a good sense of humour. He provided price indication of what we should pay at the various markets. Tour was informative about the history of old town Dubai. This was a refreshing g change from the various mega buildings I. The new Dubai. Highly recommended.
It was a refreshing experience walking through the Old markets and boat ride across the creek. We were picked up and dropped off so it was really convenient. The guide Hamza was really entertaining and informative. Don't hesitate to book as this includes drinks andcsandwiches were provided as part of the food tastings.
Francis was amazing. Would recommend for a good balanced Dubai trip to do this one.
Hamza is an amazing guide. He not only gave us a lowdown on history, he also told us many interesting stories about Dubai, true, but won't be able to find elsewhere. Amazing guide.
Anas was thorough in his explanation. We hit generally all the necessary spots, and it was a good start to understanding Dubai, it's culture and traditions.
It was awesome. The best tour guide.
This was an interesting tour led by Saif, who prided a clever mix of fact and stories about Dubai’s history and development. There weren’t a lot of tastings, but that was not a problem. Pickup from and return to the hotel was a must on a hot day. Recommended
Excellent experience through the tastings were barely any - we just had a shawarma and some Arabic coffee.
