Dubai Al Fahidi Half-Day Guided Tour

We had a great time during the tour. Our guide Maaz Khan was very thorough in discussing the details about the places we were visiting. he was very accommodating and took good care of us. We are very happy and satisfied that we booked this tour and that e had him as our guide. Highly recommended. Thank you so much!

Thanks Khan for showing us such a different side of Dubai. I’ve been to Dubai a couple times before but never got to see this traditional side of the city. The agenda and pace were good; plenty to see without being overly intensive. Khan also shared a lot about the history and culture of the UAE. I’d 100% recommend this tour to all visitors.

It was a great experience exploring Old Town Dubai. The tour duration was chill and not too long, which was perfect for the daytime heat. Khan was my guide, he was very informative about the city and extremely professional. I learned a lot about Dubai and its culture on this trip. Highly recommended!

Our guide Khan was very knowledgeable and very eager to share what he knows with the group. Nice leisurely stroll through Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood, followed by Abra Ride to Spice Souk and Gold Souk. Do set aside 3hrs for the walking tour and maybe another 1 hour to walk around the souks on your own.

Unforgettable Old Dubai Tour with Khan—A Must-Do! I cannot recommend this tour enough - a key highlight of my Dubai trip! 🌟The Guide: Khan was phenomenal. He is a master storyteller who made the history of Dubai engaging and easy to understand. He was also very patient and happy to answer all questions. 🚶The Experience: The tour was incredibly well-organized. I loved that it included resting spots and visits to houses where we were welcomed with free, hot Arabian tea. The starting point at the Al Khayma Heritage Restaurant is absolutely beautiful. 👩‍👧Solo Traveller Friendly: As a solo female traveller, I felt very safe and comfortable. It was also a great way to meet other travellers. 🍵The Food: The snacks provided were delicious and added an authentic touch. ⚠️Tip: Everything was perfect, but just a heads-up to future tourists: be careful when buying "fix chocolates" in the spice souks. Mine seemed inauthentic, so do your research first! (The saffron I bought, however, seems genuine.)

Thank you so much for a wonderful tour! Maaz Khan was our guide. He made the tour very interesting! :) Loved the whole explanation and information from him! :) Learnt so much about old Dubai and loved every bit of it :) guide: breaks: attractions on the way: Thank you!!

The tour shows us authentic Dubai experiences. Our guide Khattab was so nice, and so patient with us. He anticipated our needs to switch itinerary around for snacks as we were too full to eat at the start of the tour. He also takes care to warn us about the quality of goods at some stops so we have the right expectation when shopping.

Our Old Town tour was an incredible journey through time. It began at Al Khayma Restaurant with a fascinating deep dive into the history of the UAE and specifically Dubai. Walking through the historical areas and seeing the traditional houses—beautifully preserved by the government—offered a real sense of heritage. The experience was very hands-on, with delicious coffee and snack tastings, followed by a classic Abra ride across the creek. The Souks were a highlight; we ended up picking up some high-quality saffron and, of course, the famous Dubai chocolate! Our guide, Mr. Khan, was the star of the show. He was incredibly knowledgeable, polite, and respectful, answering all our questions with a smile. It was a thoroughly enjoyable day from start to finish. Tip: You’ll be exploring a lot on foot, so definitely wear comfy shoes!

Our guide Ahmed was knowledgeable and took good care of our group for this walking tour . We gained understanding of the history of Dubai and culture of the arabic . We sampled dates , gahwa , karak tea, samosa and other traditional snacks in this tour . The last stop was the Spice souk and Gold Souk where we could purchase some souvenirs back home at reasonable pricing .

A special shoutout to our Old Dubai tour guide, Maa Khan 👏 Handsome, knowledgeable, fluent in English, and incredibly engaging. He brought Old Dubai to life so beautifully—even my 10-year-old was completely engrossed throughout. Solid work and a truly memorable experience. Highly recommended 🇦🇪✨ group size: 10/10 guide: 10/10 attractions on the way: 10/10
