The tour was a great way to get around and appreciate the size of Dubai. We also used this as a means to hop on and off at locations we probably wouldn't have visited.

Purchased 48 hour option which included Dhow cruise excellent. Unfortunetly could take up evening drive which was disappointing. Actual pick up points could be better signed.
