    This tour met all of our expectations and more, my son and I were kept busy and entertained throughout, i had booked a prior tour through you to Italy and enjoyed that, so booking another tour through you was an easy decision, we were not disappointed the 6 days were full of new, educational, fun and interesting things, seeing and being educated on the culture and people of Dubai is definitely worth it.
