Full-Day Dubai Modern City - The Full-Day Dubai Modern City Tour with Hussein was excellent. He took the time to show us various key locations, allowed us time to shop, and was always willing to take pictures of us. Hussein was friendly, patient, and very accommodating, which made the tour enjoyable and stress-free. We truly appreciated his professionalism and would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Dubai.

Half day tour Dubai &full day Abu Dhabi - Our guide Mr Hussain was a knowledgeable and interesting guide. It was a half day tour for $80 and very enjoyable with numerous photo stops. We also took a full day tour for $90 to Abu Dhabi with Mr Hussain as guide where he was skillful and educating. The highlight of that tour was a visit to the Grand Mosque and since we were not wearing the appropriate clothing, Mr Hussain took us to a store in the adjoining Mall where I bought a top that I could have gotten for half the price a few stores away, I saw later. I feel that Mr Hussein had an interest to take us to that specific expensive luxury Boutique. Later we split up into 2 groups for lunch and Mr Hussein did not send the vehicle at the pre-arranged time but made us wait for 15 minutes in the heat outside. Mr Hussain had gone with the other group a restaurant only 10 minutes away and had kept the vehicle with them. Overall the tour was fine but the high cost of the garment from the luxury Boutique and the waiting in the heat was quite irritating to me.

Dubai, great tourist destination - Dubai, an excellent tourist option. Many landmarks. Highlights to the burj khalifa, ain dubai, the world's largest giant wheel, 250m. I also did the desert safari, exceptional. Arab and Indian cuisine prevails in Dubai. But it has Macdonalds units and a ground fire barbecue unit. I used uber for travel, affordable price. Temperature between 32 and 38 degrees.

Amazing Photo opportunities - It's a short tour with a lot of stops and great areas for pictures. Hussain was very patient and a good photographer 😊 He explained things in detail and he was my "lucky charm" as we got a free ticket to go up the tallest building. Score!!

Highly recommend! 10/10- Best Tour Guide Ever! - This tour had everything: shiny buildings, futuristic everything, and the kind of luxury that made me question all my life choices. If you’re thinking about seeing the modern side of Dubai and not going on this tour, you’re doing it wrong. Skyscrapers? Check. Futuristic vibes? Absolutely. Tour guide who deserves his own Netflix special? That’s Hussain. This man didn’t just guide us—he orchestrated an experience. I laughed, I learned, I took a ridiculous number of photos I’ll never delete. Highly recommend this tour if you like amazing views, fun facts, and not getting lost in the world’s fanciest city.

Half day city tour - Overall we have a good time during the half day trip. The only thing is that the future museum has a long waiting line, which took us almost an hour to get in. The tour guide is nice, knowledgeable, and very accommodate.
