About this experience
Dubai amazes with cutting-edge technologies, artificial islands, and grand architecture. You will see all of this on my city tour. But there is another side of the Arab metropolis that is often underestimated - local street food. I will be your guide into the world of unique flavors. Whether you prefer fried mussels, kebabs, or chicken - I will help satisfy all your culinary desires.
What to Expect
The diverse Dubai
I will help you discover both parts of the city, the historical and the ultra-modern, from colorful Eastern markets to skyscraper towers. You will get an idea of everyday Arab life, learn about the pre-oil era of the Emirates and sheikh clans, and uncover the secret of the country's phenomenal development.
Tour Highlights
- Authentic 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 walk along the luxurious promenade with cafes, fountains, and perfect views of Atlantis and Zabeel Saray hotels.
- Dubai Marina district - the city's symbol and one of its most expensive areas. You will admire a forest of skyscrapers reflecting in the waters of the harbor and take a stroll along the waterfront.
- The Burj Al Arab Hotel: getting to know Dubai is impossible without a photo stop at the iconic sail-shaped hotel on the shores of the Persian Gulf.
- Arabian Venice (Madinat Jumeirah) - an oasis in the heart of the metropolis. During the walk, you will enjoy the greenery framing the canals and you can visit the local souvenir market.
- In specific locations, I will suggest where to buy delicious and safe street food. What and how much to try is up to you. Here are some options:
- shawarma from fried chicken (price from $3)
- mandi: a traditional dish mainly consisting of meat and rice with a special spice mix, cooked in an underground pit (5-10$)
- fried fish or seafood (from $11)
