Tour by friends - With only a day to experience the city we decided on this tour as it offered what we were looking for in terms of sights and time. We were delighted by our tour guide Liji, who treated us like friends she was showing her city. As a bonus the pick up /drop off service makes this tour a great value. The tour highlights the main sights of the city with plenty of time for pictures and a great reference for those staying a couple of days. We were very happy with Lijo, tour guide and Karim , driver and showing us their city as friends.

Touring Dubai with friends - When your tour guide -Liji-and driver Karim, maken you feels like friends showing your their city, you are getting a great tour! We only had a day in the city ( and opted for this tour at the last minute and we glad we did. Liji friendly and conversation style of decribing the sites on the tour made it for a very enjoyable experirence. The tour covers the city major spots, with plenty opportunity for pictures. The tour ia not kuat great but a great value when you consider that hotel pick up/drop off is also included.

Great time. Great host - The blue mosque, and the boat ride to the socks were our favorite parts. I love how they had islamic attire for all of the non Muslims to enter the Blue Mosque. The beach was also a beautiful site

Excellent tour, great value for money - This tour was excellent. A brief however detailed tour of the highlights of Dubai. Our tour guide had excellent knowledge of the customs and traditions of the Dubai peoples and her English was very easy to understand. I really enjoyed this tour and felt it was very much worth the money that it cost. Would recommend it to anyone who does not have more than 2-3 days in Dubai
