What to expect

Book this half-day Dubai old town tour and start from the historic district of Al Shindaga, the first foundation that created Dubai what it is today. There, you will visit weaving and pottery workshops, as well as the coffee museum, where you can sample a cup of traditional Arabic coffee.

Then, you will board the traditional wooden boat, Abra, and cruise along the Dubai Creek. Your destination will be Deira's two main markets, the spice souk, and the gold souk. Enjoy your free time shopping for some goodies and souvenirs that you can bring for your friends and family back home.

Finally, you will visit Sheikh Mohammed for the Understanding of Culture (SMCCU) in Al Fahidi's historical district.
