Great walking tour, so much more than just the food.

Bruce_P, Mar 2024
We were fortunate enough to be the only couple on the tour. Our guide for the day was Malick and he was brilliant.

I must do whilst in Dubai

We had a brilliant tour with Sandy. It was really informative and the food was plentiful and super tasty. My favourite was the chicken shawarma and the caramel milk, ice cream and the camel burger.!

A Great Eay to See Dubai!

Chris_H, Sep 2023
You get to experience the food of Dubai in markets and traditional cafes on both sides of the creek. The guide Sandy was engaging, proactive and very knowledgable. We would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn more about Dubai and its foods.
