Your Experience
Start an enlightening journey aboard a custom-built bus that will guide you through some of Dubai's most culturally significant historic sites. Over the course of 2 hours and 30 minutes, enjoy comfortable seating while listening to fascinating stories about Dubai’s long history from one of its Emirati storytellers.
Your first stop is Al Fahidi, a neighborhood with roots stretching back to the late 19th century. Nestled along Dubai Creek, this historic district has largely preserved its original infrastructure over the years. Here you’ll find ochre-colored buildings and replicas of mud huts that vividly evoke Old Dubai from the late-1800s.
Next, explore the Dubai Museum to view ancient weapons, tombs, pottery items, and other artifacts reflecting the city’s prosperous pearl diving past. Discover how this site has served as a fort, prison, and armory over time. Al Fahidi remains an beautiful area that retains its old-world charm despite the transformative oil boom.
Visit Jumeirah Mosque next to admire its stunning white stone facade, intricate design elements, and two elegant minarets. The mosque’s interiors are beautifully adorned in colors like azure and pale yellow. As Dubai's only mosque open to non-Muslims, it holds a special allure for tourists. Following this visit, enjoy a cruise along the iconic Dubai Creek on an abra—a traditional ferry-like boat—for an authentic local experience.
