Great tour! A perfect tour guide Michael!
Due to the fact that I made the reservation at the last minute, I took the tour with Michael and not with Orlina. Thank you Orlina to find Michael!
Everything was perfect: the walking tour, the stories about Dubai, about history, about social life and old and new town. A very good guide with care about what we want to see and understand. We recommend him!

Great insight into old Dubai
Ikram was charming and very knowledgeable. We walked around areas of old Dubai we wouldn’t have discovered without Ikram’s guidance. The three hours went by very quickly. We started our tour at 9:30am which was ideal. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Dubai.

Great tour of Abu Dhabi & Dubai
We had a wonderful tour with Sandy! He was very accommodating to our requests. We went to see the Mosque in Abu Dhabi and some sights in Dubai including the miracle garden. He was very knowledgeable and engaging, we really enjoyed our tour and would book again!
