My wife and I took a layover tour with Sandy Nat on 18 January 2025. Sandy was very good in communicating with us prior to arriving. He monitored our arrival and met us at a convenient airport location. Having arranged it ahead of time, they were prepared to accommodate our luggage in their vehicle as we toured the city. They then dropped us at our departing terminal with ample time to check-in and pass thru security. Sandy was an excellent tour guide. He was patient with our questions and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the city. We saw all the sights advertised and had several short walking tours. He purchased some local light street food for us to try and it was excellent. While Sandy was our tour guide, he had another partner who drove the vehicle, allowing us to walk areas and get picked up later. This maximized our time by not worrying about parking and back-tracking to the vehicle. We would highly recommend Sandy as your Dubai tour guide.
We had a great time with Sandy and Jose crisscrossing Dubai! We covered the new, the old and the soon to be. We felt that our immersion was a great stepping off point for the next 2 days of adventures.
We learned a lot of new things, e.g. that there are 99 different types of dates in Dubai, that Dubai used to be a resting place for pilgrims to Mecca, that the Persians brought spices to the Arabian Peninsula and that despite different cultures we can laugh about so many things together. Sandy stepped in for Scruthy as she had just had a baby but it was a perfect handover. Sandy is a fun, spirited and expert guy full of authentic stories about life in Dubai and lots of helpful tips about how to navigate the city. We enjoyed every minute with him! Thank you so much Sandy🥰
I couldn’t be more pleased with this tour. We covered so many highlights of Dubai and I learned so much about the history and culture. The route was well planned out, with little wasted time in traffic. The driving was safe and comfortable. I received tips on places to return to if I wanted to explore more in depth. A very enjoyable experience
