About this experience
In one day, you will discover Dubai - one of the most luxurious, stunning, and modern metropolises in the world.

Feel the essence of the East at the spice market, witness the fountain show, and with my assistance, delve into the history and daily life of the Emirates.
What to Expect
'Old' and 'New' Dubai in one day
I will help you cover both parts of the city, the historical and ultra-modern, from colorful eastern markets to sky-high towers. With my assistance, you will gain an understanding of everyday Arabic life, learn about the pre-oil era of the Emirates and the sheikhs' clans, and uncover the secret of the country's phenomenal development. The program of our tour includes:
- Unique spice and gold markets, as well as Naif Street, which will immerse you in the atmosphere of the East and the past of the Emirates.
- The Palm Jumeirah Island: a man-made wonder, about the creation of which I will tell you. You will stroll along the luxurious promenade with cafes, fountains, and perfect views of Atlantis and Zabeel Saray hotels.
- The Dubai Marina district - a symbol of the city and one of its most expensive areas. You will admire the forest of skyscrapers reflected in the harbor waters and take a leisurely stroll along the waterfront.
- Burj Al Arab Hotel: your introduction to Dubai would be incomplete without a photo stop at the iconic sail-shaped hotel on the shores of the Persian Gulf.
- The Arabian Venice (Madinat Jumeirah) - an oasis in the heart of the metropolis. During the walk, you will enjoy the greenery surrounding the canals and can visit the local market for souvenirs.
- We will drive along Sheikh Zayed Road to the famous Dubai Mall. Here you will see the world's tallest building, Burj Khalifa, visit the aquarium, and then enjoy the grand show of singing fountains.
