Amazing day in Dubai - We had a wonderful day with Imran exploring beautiful Dubai. He kept us cool and hydrated while also teaching us so much about the history of Dubai and showing us some amazing sites. We plan to visit again and our first choice for more tours will be with him.

Good short tour - Very informative. Good mix of driving about and walking around places. Waseem was our tour guide, he was very helpful and gave us many fun stories and information about all the places and the culture. Recommend it if you want to see all that Dubai has to offer in a short time. 😁

Waseem from Knight tours was a good guide of Dubai - The tour was very fun. I was driven around by Waseem and he told me alot of interesting things about the city and the development of it. We stopped a bunch to take photos and experience different parts of Dubai. I was not particularly fond of the market but I'm sure other people would love it 😅
