Pauli its a amazing tour guide 🥳 very helpful nicely and friendly its been good time with him explain everything and hood historical knews 🥳🥳🥳
I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the Dubai: Old & Modern Tour, and it was truly an unforgettable journey through the city’s rich history and awe-inspiring modern marvels. What made the tour even more special was our incredible guide, Iqbal. From start to finish, Iqbal was the perfect host—warm, professional, and exceptionally knowledgeable. His deep understanding of Dubai’s culture, heritage, and rapid development added so much depth to the experience. Whether we were exploring the historic Al Fahidi district or admiring the futuristic skyline from the Dubai Marina, Iqbal’s stories and insights brought every location to life. His hospitality made everyone feel welcome and well taken care of, and his passion for the city was absolutely contagious. A huge thank you to Iqbal for making this tour not only educational but also genuinely enjoyable. If you’re looking to discover both the heart and the high-rises of Dubai, this tour—and especially Iqbal—comes highly recommended!
