Traveler reviews
Dubia city tour.
Quite poor for Viator. Taxi driver English very poor never explained boat taxi procedure very clear.
Good city tour to get to know new things
Good experience. Friendly guide(Namish) spoke German and was helpful. Was a pleasant tour you could see a lot and got plenty of information. The driver was also good.
Too much waiting around …..
Hotel pick up was then to drive to other hotels to pick up, then to a central meeting point to wait for the bus - this whole process took two hours …. way too long. Tour guide was very pleasant and told us some interesting things about Dubai. Other participants were late back to the bus after viewpoints so more sitting around. The abra trip across the creek was a highlight and I made a purchase in the gold souk. I would not recommend as too much time was waiting around and just sitting on the bus.
Nice tour
Great tour to visit in a short time the main attractions of the city. The guide was very good and explained many things about the birth of the city and the local culture as well as explaining the various places visited. Very convenient also the fact that they come to pick you up and take you back to the hotel directly.
Beautiful experience
Varied city tour with private guide and driver. Both did an excellent job. Clear explanations, nice stops and quick transfers between all the high lights. Space and time to explore at your own pace. And beautiful family photos by the guide on top.
