Family Desert 🐪 Safari

It was a good experience, our guide Ayub was excellent. He was kind and polite. He also warned us of potential “scams” at each location.

Had a really great time...

Had a really great time on the Old Dubai walking tour. It was a nice way to see a different side of the city and learn a bit about its history. Seef was an awesome guide—super friendly, easy to talk to, and shared a lot of interesting insights without making it feel like a lecture. Definitely worth doing if you’re visiting Dubai!
