Mohamed is a great tourist guide! He made us live and experience a very “Arabian magic afternoon”, he explained very well the culture and traditions, also replied to any single question regarding the history, places, ways of being and behavior in the Country! I learned a lot even when it was not my first time in the UAE, and enjoyed every walking moment in that magical environment! Also the recommendations to get local food were amazing! I would do it again!

It’s fully personalized to your preferences, whether you’re shopping for local textiles, interested in history, or learning about our Culture and food.

Dubai’s historic and humble beginnings tell a story like no other. We’ll start the day by marching the streets of old Dubai stopping by several enchanting sights and witnessing the city’s dynamic history woven by its people. My goal is to take you through a journey of tales and show you just how the small Arab village became a top destination throughout the sands of time. We'll learn about the emirate’s incredible leadership, people, and local traditions. We’ll wander the souqs, meet the owners, and learn the secrets behind some of the world’s most expensive traded items. We'll hop on a traditional wooden abra boat (think Arabian gondola minus the singing) and cross over the magnificent Dubai Creek. Once we’ve explored the historic neighborhoods in Al Fahidi and their unique architecture, I guarantee our stomachs will be grumbling loud enough to guide us themselves to one of Dubai’s best eats where we can break bread, drink tea, and be merry.

Inclusions: Meal as per itinerary and bottled water in restaurant

Exclusions: Gratuities, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Soda/Pop

I'm a single dad traveling with my 2 young kids for Spring Break. Nada was very helpful in helping us plan for this trip. Her tour of old Dubai was excellent. We were able to see the typical tourist spots as well as some places that we would not have experienced on our own. Nada was great at keeping my youngest engaged throughout the entire tour. We highly recommend her. Thank you Nada for making this a tour my kids won't forget for a long time.
