Activity itinerary

Dubai Creek
  • 30m
Begin your cultural adventure along Dubai Creek — the heart of the city’s old trading port. Watch traditional wooden dhows loading and unloading goods, and learn how this waterway was once the lifeline of Dubai’s pearl and spice trade.
Al Seef
  • 30m
Stroll through the narrow lanes of Al Bastakia, one of Dubai’s oldest districts. Admire beautifully restored courtyard houses with wind towers, an early form of air conditioning, and discover the charm of traditional Emirati architecture. Your guide will share stories about the merchants who once lived here.
Dubai Museum & Al Fahidi Fort
  • 30m
Explore the Al Fahidi Fort — Dubai’s oldest building — home to the fascinating Dubai Museum. Step inside to see historical exhibits, ancient artefacts, and life-size dioramas that illustrate the emirate’s humble beginnings as a fishing and pearl-diving village.
Old Souk
  • 30m
Continue to the Old Souk, a lively bazaar filled with vibrant textiles, colourful fabrics, and traditional garments. It’s the perfect spot to experience local trading culture and pick up authentic souvenirs.
Bur Dubai Abra Station
  • 30m
Hop aboard a traditional wooden abra (water taxi) and cross the creek to the district of Deira. Enjoy scenic views of the city skyline as modern Dubai fades into the backdrop of its historical heart.
Dubai Gold Souk
  • 30m
Arrive at the world-famous Gold Souk, where hundreds of glittering shopfronts showcase intricate jewelry designs in every imaginable style. From 22-karat bangles to ornate bridal sets, this market reflects Dubai’s reputation as the “City of Gold.” Even if you’re not shopping, the craftsmanship and atmosphere are simply mesmerising.
Dubai Spice Souk
  • 30m
Just a short stroll away lies the aromatic Spice Souk. The air is filled with the scents of cinnamon, saffron, cardamom, and frankincense. Stalls overflow with colourful spices, dried fruits, and herbs used in Emirati cuisine. Your guide will explain the origins and uses of these ingredients, offering insight into traditional Middle Eastern flavours.
Al Shindagha Museum
  • 30m
nd your tour in the historic Shindagha area—home to beautifully restored buildings, including the former residence of Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum, the grandfather of Dubai’s current ruler. This area offers a window into royal life and governance in early Dubai. The scenic waterfront views and cultural exhibits make it the perfect finale to your heritage journey.
