Dubai, United Arab Emirates
The Old TownThis visit invites you to an immersion in the beating heart of the city, where history is recounted to the rhythm of traditional boats on the creek. Let yourself be carried by the bustle of the narrow alleys, once cooled by wind towers, and by the vibrant atmosphere of stalls laden with spices and treasures. Between the reflections on the water and the radiance of the ancestral markets, this district reveals a timeless soul, far removed from the futuristic silhouette of the metropolis.

Dubai enjoys warm weather all year round—except during the summer! June to September are the hottest months, with average temperatures of 35°C and regular peaks over 40°C, sometimes reaching 50°C. So only visit during this period if you’re okay with extreme heat, and don’t forget your hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen! The coolest temperatures occur in January, with an average of 20°C—still very pleasant, especially if you're looking to escape the winter elsewhere. The best months to visit are March, April, and November, when the weather is warm enough to enjoy the sea but not too hot to explore the city. Even in winter, put some sunscreen on—UV levels stay high all year-round in Dubai.
No need to worry about where to begin! Our tours are designed as a loop, so you can jump in wherever you are. The navigation system and audio-guide will automatically adjust to your location. However, if you happen to be nearby, we do have a preferred starting point: Abra station of Deira Old Souk
Parking Deira : 22nd Rd, Al Sabkha Parking in Deira can be tricky. It’s usually easier to park elsewhere in the city and take the metro into the old town. If needed, you can opt for paid underground parking, but keep in mind that rates can get quite high.
There’s so much to see in Dubai! If you plan to do a lot of activities during your stay, consider purchasing one of the City Passes, which offer access to multiple attractions at discounted rates. You can buy them online before your trip. The tour includes a stop at the Gold Souk. Entrance is free, but this market is subject to opening hours—don’t forget to check opening hours before visiting! Visitors are asked to follow the same customs as locals during Ramadan, whether they are Muslim or not. That means no eating, drinking (not even water), smoking, or listening to music in public during the day. Some shops, restaurants, and attractions may be closed during that time too. However, many restaurants—especially in hotels—set up designated areas or partitions for non-Muslim guests who wish to eat or drink. Shoulders and legs must be covered out of respect. After sunset, the atmosphere suddenly changes as people gather to eat, drink, and enjoy shisha in a lively, festive setting that contrasts with the calm and quiet of the daytime. It’s a unique experience—but know that not all activities may be available, so check the Ramadan dates before planning your trip.
