The tour was nothing short of amazing! The traditional boat ride was a very nice touch. The views were amazing and the weather was just perfect. We loved learning about the infulence of Irani and Indian spices on the Emirati food. We had a very knowledgeable guide and our experience was very informative and enjoyable. I recommend this tour to everyone for an authentic cultural experience of Dubai, away from all the glitz and glamour.

Wonderful tour with our fun and caring guide Pri. The whole tour was wonderful and tailored to our interests. We tried some local street food and had an amazing Arabic meal. Pri is so easy to talk to, it felt like a tour with a friend. We’ll be back.

Our tour was amazing! Pri was the best guide, we had lots of fun and the food was great. We walked through several souks and some shops to get a feel for the specialties. She also shared history of the area. She took care of every detail. Highly recommend this tour.

This tour was so cool! It was lovely being able to see old Dubai in such an intimate way. In a walking tour like this though, the tour guide is incredibly important in order to have a good experience. Our guide, Pri, was amazing! She knew so much about the history of Dubai and had a unique perspective to show us as someone who immigrated here. She was super sweet and knew a lot of the local shopkeepers in the souk, who allowed us to get a taste or sample of their goods for free thanks to her! All the food we sampled during this tour was delicious as well :)

Extremely Amazing Food Tour, we absolutely loved it.. One of my favorite things for me and my wife to do when visiting a new country is trying their local food.. and Simply this tour was a true Gem. All the dishes offered during the tour were soo delicious and tasty. The Tour Guide Priyanka did a Great Job mixing the Facts about Food, how they prepare 'em and The facts about the history of Dubai. Really appreciating her knowledge and her passion. Will definitely recommend this tour to my friends.
