Marie_M, Feb 2026

I had a wonderful tour....

I had a wonderful tour. Ahmed was very informative and knowledgeable about Dubai. I visited the Blue Mosque, the Gold Souq, took a creek boat ride, and explored the Dubai Frame. He was very helpful when there was a mix‑up with my trip and, without any problem, arranged a driver to take me back to the Dubai Frame and then return me to the ship.

A good tour in Dubai including the Frame

A very good half day tour coupled with a tour of the Frame. A small group so very manageable. Started at the Blue Mosque and took in pictures at the museum of the future, the frame before taking in the spices and gold souls, a boat ride and a traditional coffee. The Frame tour was an experience not to be missed. Sunny the guide was excellent, as he was knowledgeable, charming and addressed any small glitches that may have popped up.
