Tour Overview: Rediscover the True Dubai

Before the glamour of Downtown Dubai and the innovation of the Palm Islands, there existed a different Dubai — rooted in trade, culture, and simplicity. This Old Dubai City Tour, also referred to as a Dubai Cultural Tour, brings you face-to-face with that timeless past.

Begin your day in the Al Fahidi Historical District (commonly known as Bastakiya), where coral-stone houses with wind towers tell tales of 19th-century Gulf architecture. Learn about Emirati customs, early trade routes, and traditional lifestyles. Then, enjoy a scenic Abra ride across Dubai Creek, where wooden dhows still float beside modern ferries.

Visit the Dubai Museum, shop in the colorful Spice Souk, and marvel at the shimmering gold displays of the Gold Souk. This is the Dubai that locals grew up in — not built on luxury, but on legacy.
