5.00We had a 4 hour layover in Dubai and did this tour with our guide Farhan. I was traveling with my 2 kids, and everything was very smooth. The car was clean and comfortable, and guide was knowledgeable and patient, making the tour enjoyable for all of us.
Great tour.

5.00I had a long layover in Dubai and decided to do this tour on my own. It turned out to be a great choice! Everything from the pickup to the drop-off was easy, the guide was nice, and the timing fit perfectly with my flight. Really recommend it if you’re traveling solo.
Great layover tour, saw so much of Dubai in just 6 hours!

5.00With a long 12 hour layover in Dubai, I chose the 6 hour tour and it turned out to be a great decision. Guide (Ali) was friendly and informative and the whole experience felt smooth and well paced. We visited all key spots, then I still had time to relax before my next flight. Highly recommend for anyone with extra hours in Dubai!
