The tour was fantastic. I got to see a wide variety of sites and got a sense for the amazingly fast journey of Dubai as a city. Time spent at various places was flexible and it felt more like hanging out with a buddy than a tour. Having a driver as well as tour guide made transportation and parking very easy. Top notch tour that I would recommend to anyone.

Dubai is a beautiful city that Jamshed showed us throughout an entire day. We visited incredible places, from the old part of the city to the most modern areas of Dubai. Our guide, Jamshed, speaks excellent English and was always very attentive to all our needs and preferences. I 100% recommend this tour — but make sure it’s with Jamshed.

Jamshed is the best! So knowledgeable and considerate. He showed me the entire city and took time out of his day to set me up for the next adventure. Such a great day. Highly recommend taking the tour with Jamshed

Jamshed and his driver were excellent guides to give me an introduction to Dubai. Jamshed gave good advice on getting the most out of my visit and minimizing the traffic tie ups that regularly can absorb the tour's time. He was willing to adjust the schedule for me to see the Burj Khalifa. I highly recommend this tour for those who know little about Dubai and have a day to explore.

You will not find a more welcoming, friendly, obliging, and kind guide. Jamshed took such good care of us and as our time was limited, made sure we saw everything possible to see in one day. He and answered all of our many questions and would definitely take another tour with him as guide. Thanks again for an incredible day in Dubai!
