Perfect visit - Perfect morning, after picking us up from our accommodation, the walk around old Dubai and the souks was very pleasant. We loved the private abra tour. Very enriching and pleasant visit with our 2 year old son. We had to postpone the day of the visit at the last minute because our son was sick and he was very responsive, I really recommend it! Thanks again.

Great experience - This was the first day at Dubai stay during Ramadan and joined this tour thru Viator. It was the only Old Dubai tour starting at mid-day and had pick up service from the hotel. That’s the reason to choose. Pick up service was smooth and luckily the customer was only us. The guide, Ikrum was so nice to keep a good pace with us. He was knowledgeable and could answer all questions we had. We visited the area urbanized in the 70’s, the heritage district, an old house, boat experience with other passengers and souk district in three hours. We bought spices at the store and could enjoy the whole experience. We would like to say thank you again to Ikrum, who brought us great hospitality and nice impressions of Dubai!

Included a ride in an abra from the old town to the souk . My teen son also enjoyed it . Great to see another side of Dubai.

Choose this Old Dubai tour amongst others - This walking tour was the highlight of our day. Our guide, Ikram toured us to a lot of places and explained the history, culture and relevance of each place. We even get to go inside one of the old houses and get to drink coffee and tea. This trip was also very convenient as this comes with free pickup from our hotel. Ikram also gave us tips on how to haggle and buy from the various souks he brought us to. He shared so much information about Dubai that I could perfect a quiz if I'll be given one. Thank you again, Ikram for being the best guide and for even being kind enough to take our photos.
