Private Dubai City Tour From Abu Dhabi

The driver was late for nearly an hour to pick us up from the hotel, so we lost some time instead of exploring city.
And then he took us to Dubai Marina for a start, after picking us up he asked me where we are going next, so I tried to Google it some places myself😳
He never even talked to us or told anything at all about Dubai, places, history ect.
Didn’t knew where to park or how to get in to the places.
On top of that he never stopped texting while driving 140 km/h, felt really uncomfortable and unsafe with my to yang children on the back seat.
Really disappointed ☹️

Not recommended at all.
Tour operator was finally reachable 45mins after designated pickup time for the tour.
1hr after designated tour start the tour operator stated there was a date mismatch, eventough we have contacted them the day before on Viator.
Luckily for us the hotel could organize last minute an alternative tour to Dubai.

Both the palace and the mosque were incredible and worth the time to see! As with all tours the guide can make the experience special and Mohamed was fabulous with ample patience for senior citizens, showing care and concern

Very disappointing experience. The company is based in Dubai and all their guides are based there. Their focus seems to be day trips to Abu Dhabi from Dubai and not the other way around. In the end, the experience you get will vary greatly depending on who you get as a guide. In our case, the guide seemed to know more about Abu Dhabi than Dubai, even though he lived in the latter. He did not seem to know the suggested itinerary nor duration - he asked us several times what we wanted to see in Dubai. I blame the tour operator for lack of training or simply not sharing an itinerary with the guide..

In addition, despite several attempts to reach the tour operator to confirm details prior to our confirmed tour, we heard absolutely nothing from them. The only confirmation we received was when the guide texted late the night before to confirm pickup.

As for the specifics of the tour, pickup and drop-off at our hotel were timely and the trip to Dubai comfortable, That is the extent of our positive experience. As for Dubai, we missed out on several locations that were promised and that we wanted to visit, including: Dubai creek, Dubai museum, Jumeirah mosque (while guide took us there, we were too late to visit), Burj Khalifa (unless you consider seeing it whilst driving on the highway!) and the Dubai Fountain. We wasted way too much time wandering around the Dubai Marina. As for the places we did visit, we got no real information from our guide. Without any context, it was like driving through a random city with high-rise buildings! The one thing our guide did make sure we had time to visit was a high pressure sales store that was billed to us as an art museum.

In summary, not impressed and not worth the price.

This tour was amazing. Our guide Afzan showed us all the best places in Dubai. It has been a super day and a highlight of our vacation Thank you Afzan for taking good care of us. Best greetings

This tour was amazing. We had Ghulam Ali as our guide and he showed us all of the must see landmarks in Dubai. We were able to see the Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab-7star hotel, Palm Island, and much more. The visit to Dubai was worth it just for the pictures alone. Our tour guide Ali was very friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the history of Dubai. This tour is a must see for anyone in Abu Dabi with a free day.

I liked it a lot the most of course the Burj khalifa also the car ride was very nice our guide Alyas explained us everything very good and clear I liked it a oot

Every thing perfect and with enough time. Our guide Alyas was very helpful and patient. Thanks a lot!
Enjoyable day

So pleased with this private dat trip to Dubai. We recomand to book this trip with guide Gulham Ali- great Informative and professional.

Ghulam Ali was a very helpful guide tour as he explained everything to us while he was driving us around Abu Dhabi city. He waited for us in so many places and was patient when we were late.

An excellent tour. We stopped and took photos of everything we saw and visited. Got the chance to learn a lot more new things about the city and its culture. Our tour guide and driver, Ghulam Ali, was incredibly kind and patient and made sure we never ran out of water to drink during the heat. Our way of transportation, the car, was also very clean and spacious and always had the A/C on. It was a wonderful experience!
