Overview of your Dubai tour

I have travelled in this historic Dubai creek when I first landed in Dubai 28 years ago. Khor Dubai (Dubai Creek in English) is a natural seawater inlet of the Arabian Gulf located in the heart of Dubai which divides Dubai into 2parts Bur Dubai and Deira This Sunset Cruise in a traditional wooden boat is for 1hour along the historic Dubai creek where Dubai began as a small fishing village. This trip offers great view of Sunset in Dubai. This traditional wooden boat also known locally as Abra will takes you back down the memory lane along the historic Dubai creek both before and during Sunset. In this boat trip takes you through the waterway of Dubai and seeing places and buildings which are not visible on a regular road trip. After the boat trip we will walk along the oldest areas of Dubai seeing both Bur Dubai and Deira Dubai. We will stop by in world famous Spice souq & Gold souq for browsing or shopping. We will pick up and drop off from your hotel in Dubai. This will be an evening to remember
