Dubai City Tour with Tour Guide

Snap photos of the sail-shaped Burj Al-Arab, one of the world’s tallest hotels, and catch glimpses of the soaring 2,716-foot (828 meter) Burj Khalifa, the world’s highest building. Continue into Jumeirah, one of Dubai’s upmarket residential areas, and admire Jumeirah Mosque before driving to the Al Bastakiya quarter, home to a cluster of restored courtyard houses with traditional wind-towers. Stretch your legs around the narrow lanes as your guide explains how the towers capture and circulate cool breezes, and hear how the area was first settled by pearl and textile merchants in the 1900s. Stay on in Bastakiya to visit Dubai Museum, housed in the 18th-century Al Fahidi Fort. Head inside with your guide to chart Dubai’s history through the interesting exhibits and learn about life here before the oil boom. Next, board a traditional abra water taxi to sail across Dubai Creek, the central waterway, to the Deira district. Absorb the city views from the water and breathe in the heady aromas around the colorful spice and herb stalls of the traditional Spice Souk. From here, head to the Gold Souk and browse for bargains at the myriad of shops glittering with gold, platinum and gemstones. Then, when the time comes, your tour ends with a drop-off at Dubai International Airport.
