Old Dubai Culture & Souks Tour
A deep dive into traditional Dubai — Al Fahidi’s wind-towers, abra creek crossings, the gold and spice souks and authentic Emirati food.
Overview
Five nights for travellers who want the soul of the Emirates, not just its skyline. Wander the wind-tower lanes of the Al Fahidi Historical District, cross Dubai Creek by abra, haggle in the gold and spice souks of Deira, share a meal at the Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding, and add Sharjah’s heritage museums and Islamic art.
