Manor, our guide was exceptional in showing us the best places of the historical Al Fahidi neighborhood. Great history lesson as well as stories of the people. The souk area was interesting and a revelation of sights and spicy smells.

Mansoor was a wonderful guide!! He answered every question we had and was very knowledgeable on all kinds of subjects. He and his tour were very fun, and he knew all the right shops to visit (and helped us bargain!) I would recommend this experience for visitors.

We had the pleasure of experiencing an exclusive and highly personalized tour of Dubai’s historic parts last evening. Our guide made it an incredibly informative journey, sharing insights that greatly enriched our understanding of the area. Visiting the gold and spice souks was a highlight, and throughout, we felt perfectly looked after by our friendly and approachable guide. This was a unique and individualized experience that we highly recommend.

The tour started at the designated meeting area right on time. We explored the Indian neighbourhood picking up some bites to eat. We then visited various markets to visit shops and buy some hibbiscus which came in handy. We also took a boat ride down the river which was cool experience. Throughout the tour Damur provides great and useful facts about UAE culture and history. Highly recommended tour for some laid back, informative and friendly tour.
