This trip was a great way to explore different aspects of Dubai, and I particularly enjoyed visiting the souks, though I wish we had spent more time there as the visit felt too brief. Everything else was fantastic, and I greatly appreciated the company’s thoughtfulness in making additional photo stops on the way back to my hotel after a planned site visit was canceled due to a road closure. Their effort to go above and beyond truly stood out!

Having traveled extensively and experienced many guided tours, I can confidently say that Riz was by far the best tour guide I’ve ever had! He was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and took amazing photos of us. The tour itself was comprehensive and probably the best one available in Dubai. If there’s any way to ensure Riz is your guide, it will undoubtedly make your experience a thousand times better!
