Tour Review - We had walking tour of heritage site with tour guide Ali, I was curious to know about Arabs culture, traditions and definitely starving to get traditional food. Really tour guide Ali made our day, he shared a lot of information about Dubai, we visited many old houses and came to know how tough back in the days to survive in this country. we used old wooden boat and passed through spice market, gold market and all the way reached Jumeriah historical mosque. Amazing tour guide Ali having good sense of humor very friendly and thanks explore more UAE to provide us everything on time, especially Ali you are very professional guide. We are grateful to you.
