Souks in Dubai - Dubai Shopping Tour

A souk is essentially a market area of an Arab city where you can get anything from fresh food to artifacts such as a shisha and tourist type objects. 

Dubai Gold Souk - Dubai Shopping Tour

Many regular holidaymakers to Dubai cannot leave without making atleast one stop to the famous Deira gold souk. If you are looking to buy gold jewellery for a wedding, for yourself or looking to sell off your old unwanted gold, Deira gold souk is the place to come.  Gold souks in the UAE are the biggest re-importer of gold so the selection on offer at the various outlets are huge, especially the one in Deira.  Quality is brilliant as careful monitoring regularly takes place in order to avoid fake pieces being sold and the price of gold pieces are very competitive because you wont find heavy charges on workmanship compared to western countries.  If you want to experience an outdoor souk experience with the hustle and bustle of over 300 stores, make the Deira gold souk on your top list of things to do.

Things not to miss on your Dubai City Tour

Dubai has been a fashionable destination for the past five years, attracting those who like fine hotels, cloudless skies, good beaches and endless shopping experiences.

Sometimes small things about a city makes it Big. While on you city tour Dubai, visit some of these small yet totally amazing places.

Creek

Don’t miss the creek area. Many tourists stay on the outskirts and only venture out to visit shopping malls or go on organised desert trips. Take an abra across from Bur Dubai (on the south side of the creek) to the Deira (north) side. Wander down the wharf and be amazed at just what is unloaded from the dhows. If you’re into gold, visit the gold souk.

 

Waterpaks of U.A.E - Wadi Adventure - City Tour Dubai

Wadi AdventureThe newly opened Wadi Adventure is the Middle East’s first man-made facility where you can white water raft, kayak and surf. Pretty much anyone can navigate well over a kilometre of rapids by kayak or raft, but we recommend only strong swimmers give the surf pool a go. Three metre high waves are generated every 90 seconds, ideal for surfers frustrated by the lack of conditions on the UAE coastline, but perhaps a little challenging for surfing novices like us!
Not just a water park, there is also a climbing wall, rope course and a zip line that has incredible views of the Jebel Hafeet mountains.Book a city tour Dubai and you can also explore the Wadi adventure.
