Itinerary
When you arrive at Dubai, meet your guide and hop inside your private, air-conditioned minivan. Then, set off on your 4.5-hour city highlights tour.
Along the way, hear entertaining tales about Dubai and its history from your guide, as well as intriguing facts about its architectural wonders. Keep your camera poised to capture the forests of glitzy skyscrapers on route to Jumeirah Beach, the city’s buzzing seaside district. Stop for photos at the instantly recognizable, sail-shaped Burj Al-Arab hotel and hear how, at 1,053 feet (321 meters) high, this Dubai icon is one of the tallest hotels on the planet.
Continue past the swanky hotels and villas of the residential neighborhood of Jumeirah. Take a stroll around the lanes and hidden courtyards, and admire the gleaming white domes and slender minarets of Jumeirah Mosque.
Next, enjoy a scenic abra ride across Dubai Creek to the bustling Spice Souk.
Peruse the colorful wares as you breathe in the heady aromas, and then visit the glittering Gold Souk. Perhaps up some great-value gold and jewelry here before your shore excursion ends back at the cruise terminal or Hotel in Dubai.

Enjoyed some sites that we had not seen. The tour guide was not as informative an expected and not overly friendly nor accomodating. .
The tour with Nimesh & Chamil was absolutely incredible; they showed us so many amazing places all over Dubai and were the nicest tour guides; made our trip amazing!
My guide did an excellent job explaining the history of dubaii. The monuments and siteseeing was very interesting. I had a very good time, service was great and comfortable traveling.
My friend and I had the pleasure of taking a city tour of Dubai with Faisal, and I can’t recommend him enough! He was punctual, and his car was spotless. On top of that, he smelled amazing, which was a nice touch! His knowledge of Dubai’s history and culture was impressive, and he made every stop, including the souqs, informative and enjoyable. He answered all of our questions with ease and had a fantastic personality that made the tour so much fun. We’ve kept in touch since, and I definitely plan to book him again on my next trip to Dubai. If you’re looking for an incredible guide, Faisal is the one to book!"
This was an excellent tour for us as we only had limited time in Dubai to see the sights. With this tour we were able to choose what we wanted to see as well as being guided on recommendations provided by the guide. Our guide was Nimish. He was extremely knowledgeable about Dubai and he was very conscious of our needs. We spent a very pleasant 5 hours with Nimish and his driver taking in the sights of this amazing city. I would highly recommend this tour and Nimesh to anyone who is looking to learning more about Dubai in a short time.
Our guide was on time, communication was informative and he answered all our questions. The city tour was great and we got a beautiful overview of Dubai while travelling in an air conditioned car. Travelling by boat to the old part of Dubai to the gold vendors was an experience in itself. We got to see all the major attractions which was great as we only had 3 days in Dubai. Throughly recommend this tour and hope you get our wonderful guide.
Stunning views and a great history of Dubai old and new. Souks were an eye opener for someone with no experience of that style of selling.
We had a really good time with our driver Faisal. He had a lot of information for us and took us quick from one spot to the next. We learned a lot about the old and the new Dubai. We can really recommend this tour!
Saquib provided us with a fabulous half day tour of old and new Dubai. He tailored it to meet our requests and was very considerate of our reduced mobility. Very informative history of Dubai and very knowledgeable about the buildings and areas of Dubai. I highly recommend Saquib as an experienced guide.
Absolutely perfect single day tour of Dubai - from an 11am pickup to 7pm drop off at the Dubai Mall, our guide Faisal and the itinerary he put together was ideal. We visited mosques, iconic buildings, bustling markets and boat rides - it was really the best way to get the lay of the city in just 8 hrs. Thank you Faisal!
Faisal our tour guide was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating. He took us to the best areas & advised of of the best ways to enjoy our tour. We thoroughly enjoyed touring the regions highlights. We did 2 tours with Faisal of 2 different regions & would tour with him again. He customized the tour to meet our needs and wishes.
We had an amazing 4 hour Dubai City tour. Our driver/guide Thahir was amazing. Lots of interesting info about his city to share and did an excellent job of getting us to all the major sites in the small amount of time we had. Highly recommend.
My tour guide Nitin was exceptional. I just told him what I wanted to see and he delivered, getting me the perfect photo ops with no tourists around to mess up my photos. He also informed me of the history of the country during the tour to give me the perfect introduction to Dubai. l highly recommend.
Our guide was knowledgeable and taught us a lot. Would definitely recommend. Great tour. Hits all the hot spots and made our layover easy.
I'm a Belgian freelance tour-guide and we went with a group of 20 people on a combination trip Dubai-Abu Dhabi-Oman with Orient Tours. For Dubai we had a top guide, Mehul (Guide with form Mumbai, India, but working 20 years in Dubai). Mehul makes the difference. He is honest, good feeling for time-management, and gooed knowledge...so topguide for me and my Belgian group
🤩 !! The best tour ever was given to me by Nimesh! So informative and very professional! Everything was time correctly and even offered to extend time to make sure we could see as much as possible. Everything was just perfect! Thank you so much!!
<p>Pre-tour phone support very helpful. Pick-up as promised. Program was easy-paced. Good interaction between Guide Yesser, Driver Gamil, and Clients. Nice way to get a glimpse of Dubai with only a half-day's time.</p>
<p>We were glad that the operator allowed some deviation from the original schedule to have more time in the Gold Souk. Enjoyed the shopping! Thanks!</p>
<p>This is the perfect tour for someone who is not at all familiar with Dubai, and would like to see quite a lot in a short amount of time. We had several things we wanted to do on our list, including the Dubai Museum and seeing the spice and gold souk, and got to check those off with this tour. Very good driver and very knowledgeable tour guide who shared so much about the history of Dubai, culture, economy - we learned a lot! We were also able to easily communicate with the tour company and explain where we were staying and how to pick us up, etc. Very good experience with this company.</p>
<p>This tour was great! You are essentially allowed to see any sights you choose, in the time allowed. My girlfriend was even allowed to shop! It's truly your private tour. Just have an idea of want you want to do prior to the tour and they will make it happen. Also, the guide was very knowledgable.</p>
Excellent - great guide! Driver does drive fast. It was very expensive for what it offers.
Driver was knowledgeable, excellent communicator and friendly. Made maximum use of our very limited time in Dubai
Definitely worth it. We saw a lot and our guide was knowledgeable. This was a good value for the money.
I think this is the only way to get a feel for Dubai since the city is quite large and spread out. Our guide hit all the old and new sites and was personable and intelligent.
Our private guide Mathaba has made a great tour of Dubai old and new. He has very great knowledge and explained everything to us in detail. Thank you so much!
A unique experience, Yasser the very friendly guide. Very good option to get to know a lot in a short time. I recommend
