As far as skylines go, Dubai’s is hard to beat. What started life as a fishing village less than 200 years ago is now famous across the world as 1 of the most photogenic urban cities. On this eye-widening tour of modern Dubai, we’re going on the Wander Express to see the emirate’s iconic landmarks and daring architectural wonders. From twisted towers to a futuristic museum to man-made islands. You’ll cruise the Dubai Marina on a 60 min boat trip* with unparalleled views of the breathtaking skyline. We’ll do a spin around the Dubai Mall, which is more of an entertainment haven than just your average shopping mall. You’ll see the surreal Burj Khalifa, tallest building in the world, towering above. How does one create such a futuristic city from sand and beach? Well, wander with me and you’ll find out!
Tour requires a min. of 3 guests when the boat tour is included. If the min. is not met, tour will still operate with 2 guests, with The View at The Palm visit replacing the boat.

5.00Nada has done an outstanding job organizing the tour and creating unforgettable experience while we were in Dubai. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a tour guide. You will not be disappointed!

5.00This is an easy 5 star. A consummate professional, Nada is the type of guide you would want: personable, knowledgeable, and a paragon of eloquence. The tour we had with her—about 15 people, a challenging number in my opinion—was equally enjoyable and enlightening. One would be remiss not to book at least one tour with her company when visiting Dubai or engaging in local tourism.
Must do Dubai with Nada!

5.00Nada was the tour guide this past December 2023 for a group of 10 ladies who traveled to Dubai with a womans only travel group called Sights and Soul. We LOVED Nada! We had a great time exploring Dubai, checking out all the have to sites (Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall , Coffee Museum and Museum of the Future to name a few), taking a catamaran cruize and visiting a local mosque. Nada was friendly, knowledgeable, energetic and fun to be with. We looked forward to each day and each new adventure she took us on. If I ever get the chance to go back to Dubai she'll be the first person I'll contact to organize my trip.
Two days my wife and enjoyed!

5.00Nada was simply exceptional, so much so we booked her two days in a row. One for the Dubai Landmarks and the other for the Old Dubai tour. Friendly, informative and just all around great! If you are searching this site and looking for something to convince you to select Nada, stop! You've found your Dubai guide.
Architectural highlights of Dubai!

5.00Had a fun, informal and informative trip with Nada and fellow wanderers! The boat trip was amazing especially when you looked back at the skyline. Then onto more stunning sights and landmarks around Dubai. Found out so much about Dubai from Nada, that I felt happy to wander around on my own the next day. I would recommend this trip as it also helps you get your bearings as to where everything is in Dubai.
Highly recommended

5.00I can't recommend Nada enough. I contacted her about doing a quick day tour of Dubai during a long layover between flights and she planned the perfect itinerary for us. We got to see some of the old city markets and went to a spice merchant, we had a delicious traditional Emerati lunch then headed off to Dubai mall and then to the Palm to see the sunset. We were able to see so much in a limited period of time. Nada is very knowledgeable and fun to hang out with as well.
