5.00Abdul is a great guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Shared his cultural knowledge making the tour more meaningful. Detailed presentation in spice souk, abra ride and local home / coffee tasting were the highlights. Did the premium tour for the food tastings, but other than the coffee ☕️ tasting, would just stick to the basic tour and skip the food tastings. Thank you Abdul!

5.00We has a wonderful morning exploring Old Dubai as a family. Our guide, Seef, was so friendly and informative, giving us a history of Dubai and the rapid change it has encountered over the last 25 years. An Abra ride across the creek allowed us to take in the views of the distinctive architecture of the area. We explored handmade craft markets, spice markets and the famous gold market all while sampling delicious tasty Emirati treats and delicious spiced coffee. Thanks Seef for a really lovely morning, we came back feeling more connected to the all that makes Dubai an incredibly unique and wonderful place.

5.00I had an amazing experience on the Aladdin Tour). Our guide, Islam Shady, was absolutely fantastic. He explained everything in a very friendly and engaging way, showed us so many interesting places, and made us feel comfortable and welcome the entire time. He doesn’t feel like a typical tour guide, but more like a friend who truly wants you to enjoy and understand the experience. Thanks to him, the tour felt special and unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour, especially with Islam as your guide.
