Best Highlights of Old and New Dubai with Muhammed Astif!

I was trying to make the most of my time with my short stay in Dubai. After I skydive, I was able to book also this tour which would give me the highlights of Dubai! We went to the famous sights, took pictures and even went to places less visited. We even went the gold souk where I was able to get some good jewelry and also saw some out of this world items! Went to the mall wheeze I saw biggest indoor screen in the world as well as indoor aquarium!!! It was amazing! Lastly as the night falls I saw the wings of Mexico with the light saw or burg Khalifa in the background! It was the perfect night! Only complain, I wish I did have more time I would’ve made a full day tour!! Thanks Sougat Tours! Muhammed Asif..you’re the man! Book him!

Best time in Dubai with Muhammed Asif!!!

It started the day with a greeting and the next two days seemed like it was hanging out with an old friend. Muhammed Asif made me feel like at home and at ease in my visit. I was blessed to ha whim as a tourguide and he was well-knowledgeable in every aspect about the UAE. In such a short time, he taught me about the culture, the history, the in and outs of the city, the hidden gems that I would not be able to find by myself, the delicious food and most of all making me feel like I belong. Our rides around the sites was like catching up with a friend. While he provided good information about the sites, we also talked about our lives. The visit in old and new Dubai was an eye opener. In one side, it shows the advancement and development that Dubai has developed to while the other side showed it culture, history and architecture. We also went to the gold souk where I was able to purchase great items as well as some teas and spices and all sorts of things Dubai. I’m so grateful for our time together and I highly recommend him to be your next tour guide!! Thank you again Muhammed!!

Dubai City Tour

We recently took the Dubai City Tour, and it was an absolutely exceptional experience from start to finish! The guide was truly the highlight; incredibly knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and shared fascinating stories that brought the city's history and modern marvels to life. Their passion made every stop feel special. Beyond the tour, the city itself exudes an almost unmatched welcoming nature. From the immaculate streets to the warm smiles of the people, there’s a palpable sense of genuine hospitality everywhere you go. You truly feel like an honored guest. Overall, the tour perfectly balanced the dazzling new skyscrapers with glimpses of Old Dubai charm, making for a comprehensive and truly memorable journey. Highly, highly recommended for anyone wanting to see the best of Dubai!

<p>This tour was interesting. The tour guide made it, he was terrific. Tour itself was interesting as we had only just arrived so a good way to see a little of Dubai first. Bring plenty of water, a hat and good sunglasses, it's incredibly hot</p>
