An AMAZING experience!
We had a few hours spare late at night in Dubai. We decided to do Sandy and Jose’s Late night layover tour and what an experience it was! Sandy was filled with so much knowledge about current and past history of the UAE, it left us in awe. I learnt so much, and am so amazed by this country and the futuristic thinking it upholds. I would highly recommend to anyone ☺️

A Great Day in Abu Dhabi
We did the Abu Dhabi day trip with Sandy Nat and driver Ranju. We were picked up promptly at the arranged time and set off from Dubai to explore Abu Dhabi. We had requested specific stops for our tour which were accommodated by Sandy. So you can make this tour bespoke.
Sandy is extremely knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions. We started off at the Grand Mosque (and so helpful that Sandy had made all the arrangements so we were able to fast track entry) which was stunning and so beautiful. Sandy shared so much information on the building of the mosque and each area’s significance which made this visit truly memorable.
Our next stop was the Emirates Hotel (former palace) and along the drives we were also able to see specific sights that Sandy pointed out (which we were not aware of) - such as the seven buildings that are designed to look like the five fingers of a hand.
Next stop was Heritage Village for a self guided tour of the humble beginnings of the first ruler of the UAE. Enroute to lunch we passed a few more sights and also saw the new palace from across the ocean (overlooking a bay).
We stopped for lunch at Al Mrzab for truly Emirati cuisine (which is also recommended by the Michelin Guide).
The afternoon consisted of a stop at the date market and the Louvre museum. We toured the museum which happened to also house several works of art by renowned artists Money, Manet, and Renoir (without the lines like the French Louvre).
The final stops included driving through Ferrari World and the parks on Yas Island. We did not wish to stop here but they can be added to one’s itinerary.
The day was packed with activities we chose and we continued to learn about the Emirati culture from Sandy during the drive back to Dubai.
Sandy - Thank you for a most wonderful experience and for sharing some of the sights your home has to offer.

Fabulous Local Dubai Experience
We booked this night tour of Dubai after reading the reviews and were not disappointed. Sandy was a gracious host and tour guide. He was very communicative to our arrive and took any anxiety we might have had by giving us clear and specifics on meeting location and what to expect upon arrival. After following the sign with our name he took us on a very informative, entertaining and educational 4 hour tour of Dubai including ALL of the highlights but also a tour of Old Dubai so we could experience the changing cultures.
His descriptions were clear and understandable in English. We would highly recommend him.
