⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend this tour company for this half day Dubai tour with Burj Khalifa. Worth getting VIP for 148th floor skip the lines. The views spectacular, weather amazing cooler in November, and I can't say enough about my friendly tour guide Farhan. He provided so much information on local history, culture, religion, customs and architecture. I highly recommend you request him for your tour.

Great half- day introduction to Dubai’s key sites. Farhan, our guide, was very knowledgeable, informative, professional and polite, and he allowed us to take our own pace with the tour - this was much appreciated since we had four children with us. We would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to see the main City sights in a relatively short time.

We had a wonderful experience touring the beautiful blue mosque, the old city, and the gold and spice souks with our guide Farhan. Farhan was very knowledgeable about the history of the UAE and the culture of the country. You could feel how much pride and love he had for his county and culture, and I enjoyed hearing and learning all about it.

We did a half day tour of Dubai with Farhan. He was an excellent guide. He was very knowledgeable and concise. He had insight into the city and culture that was very informative. He was very patient with our children. We highly recommend him as a guide!
It is worth this 1 day tour, especially if the stay in the country is short, as you visit the main points. O

We had a fantastic half-day sightseeing tour in Dubai with our wonderful young guide Farhan. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience so enjoyable from start to finish. We covered all the main sights without ever feeling rushed, and he filled us in with plenty of fun facts and insights about the city that really brought each place to life. On top of that, we had great conversations along the way, which made the tour feel personal and relaxed. Highly recommend him for anyone looking to explore Dubai with a guide who is both professional and a pleasure to spend time with!
