Great tour to do even on a hot day

It's a very comprehensive tour, covering both the new and old Dubai. Our guide Liz was a gem. She had a vast knowledge and a very kind demeanour. Despite the extreme heat during our visit, we found the tour still very enjoyable. The highlights were the short boat trip and we enjoyed the visit to the mosque donning traditional clothing. At the end of the tour they were kind enough to drop us at a shopping centre close to our hotel, so we could get lunch there. Highly recommend
