Dubai Guided Tour with Street Food

Make the most of this tour of Dubai to discover every corner of the city with a local guide. In groups of around 15 people, you’ll learn all about the emirate and, what’s more, you’ll be able to sample some of its culinary delights at the various markets you’ll visit. To round off the experience and feel like a local, you can take a trip on one of its traditional boats.

Stroll at your leisure through the most famous historic neighbourhoods, such as Al Seef, an old district beside the Dubai Creek that pays homage to a traditional Dubai activity: pearl diving. You’ll also explore the narrow streets of the Al Fahidi neighbourhood, also known as Al Bastakiya. Originally, this was a residential district for local merchants, artisans and fishermen.

The souks are traditional Arab markets that are a must-see in this city. Some of those you’ll visit include the Old Souk, the Dubai Spice Souk and the Gold Souk. Each has its own unique character; you’ll be enveloped by the scents of spices and a riot of colours as you wander through the intriguing alleyways. Jewellery, precious stones and local textiles such as shawls are just some of the items sold in these souks.

Dubai, amongst many other things, is renowned for its exotic Arabic cuisine. On this tour, you’ll be able to sample products such as Arabic coffee or tea, dates, chocolate, and orange, coconut or sugarcane juice. You’ll also be able to experience the wide variety of flavours of shawarma and falafel available in the city’s markets. To do so, you’ll need to select the Premium option when booking.

You’ll have the chance to visit the Dubai Museum, which houses artefacts and antiquities recovered from trade between Dubai and Africa or Asia.

A stroll along Dubai Creek, the waterway separating the neighbourhoods of Bur Dubai and Deira, will reveal the differences between the old and new parts of Dubai. Relax on board an abra: a traditional wooden boat that has been carrying travellers for centuries.
