Quick view of Dubai - I had Mansoor as my guide, I joined the 3 hours tour in the evening on a weekend, so I was lucky the traffic wasn’t too bad and able to visit three areas, 1) the old town with stop at the gold and spices market, he brought me to a spices store and the staff there spent sometime to explained different types of tea and spices, and I wasn’t forced to buy anything from them; 2) the modern town with quick stop at the frame, future museum and burj khalifa, and 3) a quick stop at the palace
Mansoor was knowledgable and answered me lots of questions on the way
I didn’t get a snack as stated in the activity but I guess it is not a big deal.

Great time - We had a great time with 4 hr overlay tour. Our guide Muhammad was great, he is very knowledgeable, kind and passionate with his job. We got through customs early, once we contacted Muhammad, he came right away, so we finished all our tour and had enough time to catch the next flight. Muhammad even bought us a delightful local food. It was a great experience.

Solo female traveler - I was picked up at the airport and Muhammad whisked me off
In his air conditioned SUV.
He was very friendly and showed me the sights of Dubai and interpreted the history along the way. We’d stop and he’d take photos of me in front of the various landmarks and picked up cold water and tea along the way. I always felt safe with his driving and professionalism as a guide. Well worth it for me as a first time visitor to Dubai in 40 C heat. I’d highly recommend him to others.

Unforgettable Layover Tour with Tamour! - This was an incredible tour even at 2:00 in the morning! Tamour did a phenomenal job showing us around and sharing the rich history behind the neighborhoods and local landmarks. Seeing Dubai at night was truly magical. The city lights made for absolutely stunning views and unforgettable photo opportunities. Tamour knew exactly where to go for the best nighttime shots and even helped us capture them, ensuring we got the perfect angles.
We visited everything listed on the itinerary and never felt rushed. Tamour was also incredibly accommodating, helping us with our luggage and patiently guiding us through the airport process. His professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made the experience smooth and enjoyable. If you’re doing a layover tour in Dubai, you must request Tamour - you won’t regret it!

Fantastic Dubai Stopover Tour! - Dear Tamour,
Just wanted to send a quick note to say how much we enjoyed the 3-hour city tour of Dubai during our recent stopover from Singapore to Scotland.
We were truly impressed with how much we were able to see and learn in such a short amount of time. Your knowledge and passion for Dubai really shone through, making our brief visit incredibly memorable and insightful.
Thank you again for a wonderful experience!

Life's short (and so is your layover). Don't miss this opportunity to experience Dubai with an expert guide. - Visiting a region of the world less familiar for such a fleeting moment offers unique challenges: How do you prioritize your time? Navigate a new city? Balance the "must-see" sights while wanting to gain a glimpse of everyday life?
Zaheer our guide was the perfect solution! Knowledgable, curious, engaging, and efficient. He responded to our curiosities while offering his own insights into the rich culture and people of Dubai.
If you are taking advantage of the long layovers offered by Emirate Airlines, I want to encourage you to secure a guide. You'll get the most out of your brief time. And if your experience is like ours, make a friend along the way.
With gratitude Zaheer! And Viator for showing us this incredible city. We'll be back soon for a longer visit.
