Marhaba! That's hello in Arabic! I look forward to meeting you in Dubai, showing you around our beautiful city and unveiling our culture! I was born in Kuwait to a Palestinian family! I lived there for a few years before we moved to Cyprus and later Jordan. My family run their travel business and I have been involved in the industry since a young age. It's what I always wanted to do; When I am not travelling myself, I want to spend time with travelers! I moved to Dubai back in 2009 and got my tour guiding license shortly after. A few months later, I was officially guiding people in the city! I find that through my work, I am an ambassador to the Arabic culture that is often misinterpreted. I love sharing my part of the story, a middle eastern woman who knows the ins and outs of our culture, who is proud of a lot aspects, yet who sees herself as a global citizen! Licensed Dubai Tour Guide Licensed Abu Dhabi Tour Guide Dubai Way Training I am not a driver. I can hire a licensed driver and car and will be happy to show you around.

Overview of your Dubai tour
Abu Dhabi, the capital city of UAE is just an hour and half away. Over the past decade, the city has successfully grown into an international metropolis, investing in museums, galleries and culture. It's attracted over the years reknowned names in architecture specifically making it a legit competitor to Dubai's skyline!

Touring Abu Dhabi with Dana was an incredible unique, personalized experience that would have been impossible to have without her expertise! We were picked up at our hotel and road in comfort to Abu Dhabi. We toured the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque which was incredible, and Dana found us a small separate tour allowing us to be the only group of people to be able to walk inside the prayer area. We then went to the Grand Palace where Dana introduced us to another private guide who led us through the Palace. Then a delicious local lunch. Dana created the perfect custom tour for our family of 6 thank you!!

Spent a day with Dana as our guide in Abu Dhabi. She was flexible in adjusting her standard tour of the city to meet our interests. Even added a few other stops along the way since she was aware of our interests from our tour of Dubai with her. Flexible, knowledgeable, interactive, efficient, and organized. Would not hesitate to recommend.

We loved Dana. Our day in Abu Dhabi was amazing. Dana managed to get us to optimize our time to see "everything". And our driver was great navigating the horrendous storm. Thank you.
