Hi there! Nice to meet you

We are Jose Gomez and Sandy (Santosh) ! We were not born in Dubai but Dubai is our home. We have been living in Dubai for more than 12 years as the certified and licensed tourists guides.

Our lives were filled with lots of real-life miraculous Incidents which led us to become the Dubai expatriates & co hosts for our travellers sharing our experiences and expertise's.

Gomez completed his honours in hospitality & tourism management and started working as a hospitality professional (chef, bartender, sales & marketing) in different countries & cities for the first few years before he moved to Dubai & became a tourist guide by people's

recommendation on Trip Advisor.

Wheras Sandy completed his diploma in tourism and started his debut in Dubai and transformed as a tourist guide by traveller's choice for his passion to show the authentic local places and cuisines to his guests.

We have had seen Dubai transforming to what it is today and have lived through that era with a handful of life experiences and realities. So on our tours, we help our clients to understand about the history, culture, architecture and the life-changing realities of Dubai on a closer angle.

It's always fun when you have a local person helping you to explore the city. Not only the touristic spots but the hidden gems of Dubai as well.

" If you are looking for real-life experience in our city don't hesitate to choose your experience with Gomez & Sandy, nevertheless both of us share the same passion and dedication in tours to our clients.

PS. We are genuine to all our clients in delivering a quality time during the tour rather than pushing our clients to an expensive art gallery, carpet shops, or spice shop.

You decide your tour - we will make it happen for you in our cities. (Dubai & Abu Dhabi)

We have done tours for nearly 8000 travellers over the past few years and we just not only promise a quality tour but a good friend for a lifetime!

Regards,

"Jose Gomez & Sandy Nat"

Sandy was an outstanding tour guide! He knew all the great places to go and was willing to tailor the tour to our interests. He knows the history of the area and a lot of interesting facts, which made it fun. He also took awesome pictures for us at each location. We stopped for lunch and included him in our feast at the fish market. Don’t hesitate to book with Sandy it was an AMAZING dayAMAZING!

Yas and Santhosh picked us up at the airport in a very timely fashion. They were very friendly, fun and knowledgeable . We enjoyed the markets, historical sites, a boat ride across the creek and dipping our toes in the Persian gulf at a night beach! Fabulous layover in Dubai

We took a long time researching the different guide options and couldn’t be happier with our choice. Sandy had so much knowledge on Dubai having been born and grown up there. He had so many great stories from an economic, political but also entertainment point of view and had answers to all our questions. Very highly recommended.Great food, even better facts and stories

Sandy catched us from our hotel and then we drove to Abu Dhabi. We made a lot of stopps. A greater stopp was at the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. That was really very impressing. He explained us the facts and had all answers to our questions. After this we went to the former Kempinski Hotel, then we wanted to see some spots away from the grand tourism (meat and fish- market…) And he fullfilled our wish to have lunch in a typical Arabian Restaurant. It was an awsome experience and very delicious. And on our way back to Dubai we had a look at the racing place from Formula 1. We spent 8 hours with Sandy and we Are very thankful for this time. We can highly recommend him and this tour. And the driver was very kind, also. Thanks for all, Sandy.What a wonderful day!

Sandy is an absolutely amazing guide. He is kind, friendly and very knowledgable. The tour was a wonderful mix of Dubai history and tasting the most delicious foods. Sandy is very passionate about the food and the tours and you get to enjoy areas you wouldn't necessarily go to without having local knowledge. We eat a mainly vegetarian diet but sometimes have fish. Our diet was perfectly catered for! The grilled sea bass with Arabic spices was a particular highlight!! I can't recommend Sandy enough... a tour not to be missed!Highlight of our trip to Dubai

We decided to fly through Dubai after discovering this stopover night tour. The experience was incredible. Our guide was AJ. I believe he was filling in for another team member. We were incredibly grateful AJ was able to fulfill the tour commitment despite his busy schedule. AJ informed us about the history of Dubai. We experienced the architectural highlights, a ferry ride and unique cuisine. The temperature was comfortable and crowds nonexistent. All around a positive and memorable experience.Commitment matters
