City tour was great. After tour car took us to location of cruise but driver just dumped us and pointed to direction of boat. Walked down and there were several boats and none had signs and no one around. Finally found the one needed. Food was terrible, entrees cold and others very ordinary. Cruise sights were grea, in fact the only good thing.
Dear Fay_A, Greetings from ORIENT TOURS! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Happy to read that you liked our city tour. We appreciate you sharing the feedback about the drop-off at the cruise which was definitely not handled the way it should be - we will work on this internally to ensure this will not happen again in future and all our drivers are reminded on the professional way of satisfying our valuable customers. The feedback on the food at the cruise has been shared with the cruise partner for their enhancements. Best regards, Sarah P. Dubke Senior Manager Guest Services ORIENT TOURS LLC
<p>Our tour guide, Norman, was very entertaining and a great spirit. The sites visited were very good and glad to experience. However, could improve on pickup instructions for those taking the dinner cruise. We did not know if transportation back to our hotel was going to happen. We were arranging for our own transport until a different tour van was looking for us, but no one told us it would not be Orient. Tighten up things like this and rating would be more favorable. Still, kudos to Norman!</p>
Dear Charles S, Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. Our company values put customer satisfaction as top priority and we are committed to our customers. We have forwarded your feedback to the concerned department for corrective action. Best Regards, Sarah P. Dubke Manager Guest Services ORIENT TOURS LLC
<p>I highly recommend this tour. It was our Family vacation of 5 2 adults, kids age 16,13 and 5 years old, we all loved it. The pick up from the hotel was on time, it took us to the bus. The tour guide was amazing he spoke german and english and was funny as well. The day tour took about 5 hours and after that the bus dropped us off at the Dubai Creek Old Dubai, where we had the Dinner Cruise. We had to wait for about an hour to board, which was ok. The Dinner Cruise was excellent as well and the cruise took about 2 hours, the crew was very respectful, friendly and a helping hand when it comes to children they carried my 5 years old up to the deck, the stairs were steep or they bring your drinks to the deck if you decide to see the view from the deck. The dinner was very good. Overall we all loved it and would do it again</p>
