Maxine city view

Published on Nov, 2024

It was amazing time with Farhan!! We saw many places, he introduced the history and all Important points of the city Thanks for all.

Fabulous experience

Published on Nov, 2024

We had an amazing experience with Farhan as our guide in Dubai! He showed us all the beautiful and iconic places, ensuring we didn’t miss any of the city’s highlights. Farhan was incredibly accommodating, always making sure we were comfortable and tailoring the tour to our preferences. His knowledge of Dubai’s history, culture, and hidden gems truly enhanced our experience. What stood out the most was his friendly and approachable demeanor, which made us feel at ease throughout the tour. It felt less like a guided trip and more like exploring the city with a friend. If you’re visiting Dubai, we highly recommend Farhan for an unforgettable experience!

5++++ Stars

Published on Nov, 2024

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Farhan was on-time, professional, and knowledgeable. We visited so many different sites, and he was willing to customize to my own requests. He waited patiently while I shopped as well. Would highly recommend him!!

A must do excellent experience

Published on Nov, 2024

Farhan was so knowledgeable and professional it really help d with our understanding of Dubai culture and progression The trip was interesting informative and packed with exciting content I would definitely do it again because we ran out of time I would book longer probably a day to really see old Dubai the reason we ran out of time was because we were flying home that day I wish we booked this tour at the start of our holiday rather than the end Well done to Farhan for keeping us moving and his excellent English and communication

Dubai new & Old Town tour

Published on Nov, 2024

A brilliant and informative trip with our guide Farhan. An absolute must if visiting Dubai! Easy communication to set up pick up location and time then a very well thought out tour of the city. We were never in the car for longer than 10-15 minutes, we visited so many different areas of the city and Farhan was so insightful and interesting to listen to about the history. He also welcomed all of our questions and provided us with refreshments too. A brilliant morning!!
