Useful Information
Dubai City Half-Day Sightseeing Tour
Stop for a photo opportunity, then continue with your guide along the shoreline to Jumeirah, one of Dubai's upmarket residential areas.
See the winding lanes that lead to hidden courtyards and the mud-brick homes topped by traditional wind towers, designed to catch cooling offshore breezes.
Next, visit Al Bastakiya’s old Al Fahidi Fort, home to the Dubai Museum, and take in views of the cannons, turrets and fortified walls. Then cross Dubai's central waterway, Dubai Creek, in a traditional water taxi called an abra – a must-do activity in Dubai!
On the Deira side of Dubai Creek, soak up the colors and perfumes of the spice souk. Then enjoy free time to shop for souvenirs or glimmering accessories in Dubai’s legendary gold souk before you return to your hotel.

I am glad I booked this trip as it put Dubai into perspective and made it easier to get around later by myself. The guide was very helpful and knowledgable about the city.
