Unforgettable Experiences in Dubai Tour

Great services provided by Tabish Dubai Tour. Despite a delay in the airport clearance due to unforeseen circumstances on one passenger, the tour guide managed the itinerary patiently and professionally. He managed to cover all the visiting places as per the original plan. The lunch and dinner meals provided to us were marvellous. Keep it up, Ishtiaq Ahmed and Tabish.

VIP experience tour

The service and the tour guide was great. The coaster was huge and spacious for our family and the tour guide Mr. Abdullah did a great job in educating us about Dubai, it’s culture & people. Mr. Abdullah gave us helpful tips on where to buy items that are affordable for tourists like us and even went beyond our expectations on his service. He was warm, friendly and accommodating. Our 4 days private tour felt like a VIP. Overall, it’s a 10/10! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dubai City Tour

We had a quick city tour while waiting for our next flight to Kuala Lumpur. Our first time here in Dubai. It was a great experience, managed to visit all tourist attractions, had great photos taken by our tour guide and had good food for our breakfast and lunch. It was scrumptious!. We even had chance to perform our Friday prayers at the mosque. Our tour guide Isthiaque is very friendly, knowledgeable and sharing the history of the places we visited, the economy and legislation of UAE. What a memorable Dubai city tour. Will definitely come back.

UMRAH & DUBAI HALF DAY TOUR

I recently enjoyed a fantastic half-day tour in Dubai together with my Umrah group from Azzuha Travel and Tours Malaysia, and it exceeded all my expectations! The tour agency did an outstanding job of curating an unforgettable experience. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and provided insightful explanations at every stop, making each location come to life. The tour included iconic landmarks such as the Dubai Frame, Palm Jumeirah, Souk Madinat Jumeirah, the Museum of the Future, Dubai Mall, and, of course, the magnificent Burj Khalifa. Each site was fascinating in its own right, and the guide's expertise truly enriched the visit. Additionally, the tour featured a delightful lunch that added a special touch to the day. It was well-organized and seamlessly executed, making the entire experience both enjoyable and memorable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Dubai's highlights in a short amount of time. It’s a perfect blend of sightseeing and relaxation!
