Ebrahim was amazing! We...

Ebrahim was amazing! We missed a connecting flight and had never been to Dubai. So we scheduled this half day tour to see the sites while waiting for our new flight. Our hotel was out of the area they normally pick up from, but he came and picked us up from there and dropped us back off there with no issues. He far exceeded our expectations and knew the answers to all of our questions! Exceptional tour and would highly recommend!

Half Day Tour Dubai with Sajid

Amazing Half-Day Dubai Tour with Sajad! We had an absolutely wonderful half-day driving tour in Dubai with Sajad as our guide. From the very beginning, he was extremely friendly, engaging, and full of knowledge about the city’s history, culture, and hidden gems. His passion for Dubai really showed and made the experience even more special. What we appreciated most was how much Sajad genuinely cared about us enjoying every moment of the tour. He checked in often, made thoughtful suggestions, and tailored the experience to what we were most interested in. We were traveling with two kids, and he was fantastic with them—patient, fun, and incredibly attentive. They felt comfortable with him right away. From the must-see landmarks to local insights we would’ve never discovered on our own, Sajad made our day unforgettable.

excellent beginning to September

Barring the non reachability of the operator, the trip was a pleasant one with one of the finest guides with us. Operator needs to be more proactive after the trip is booked and confirmed and their phone lines need to be reachable.

An excellent whistle stop introduction to Dubai

The tour took the best part of three hours or so and our driver was very knowledgeable of Dubai, and was flexible in terms of pick up and drop off. The air conditioned car was very welcome during our private tour, and we had sufficient time to take photographs at key points. The option to take a boat taxi to the markets was also welcomed. Only part I didn’t enjoy was the markets where the stall holders were quite forceful, as to be expected.

All the main Dubai sights with a great guide.

A wonderful tour, perfect for those with limited time who want to see the main sights of old and new Dubai. Our guide Shajahan was friendly and knowledgeable, and arrived at our hotel for pick up right on time. Could not ask for a more enjoyable introduction to Dubai.
