Overview

Dubai has a very rich history, unique culture and unique social life. Being a local guide, I will narrate you the storey of Dubai's evolution, from riding camels to driving Ferrari, and how modern landmarks relate to history.

Experience the local culture in the historical district of Al Fahidi, the oldest residential locality, and know how life was before the oil discovery. Take a ''Sip of Arab hospitality - Gawah'', local coffee at an antique coffee museum. Cross the Dubai Creek in a traditional boat to get into the narrow alleyways of Deira's covered souk-Spice Souk and Gold Souk. You will feel the aroma of different spices and incense. Check out shops piled and glazed with gold and awaken your taste buds with local dates and spices.

Finally admire the exquisite architecture of Islamic art at Jumeirah grand mosque and learn about the basic insights of Islam.

Note:
Please contact me if you have any questions and this tour is fully customisable towards your needs.
