It's a SCAM, do not book

This is a SCAM. DO NOT book this tour with this company. Per ticket status and accordance, they supposed to pick up us at the hotel location at 9:30am. No one showed.we waited till 10:30 am, still no guide tour. Try to contact the company via chat on their website. The agent's response stated there was a lady named Miriam had been contacted us for the trip. It was a LIE. No one has been contacted us. They also said our booking wasn't included transportation. Again , it's a LIE, the confirmation sent to us stating pick up point is at the Savoy center hotel. Request a refund since there was no tour. They refused saying per policy, refund issued only within 24 hrs cancellation. There was no cancellations here, they just screwed up our trip.

Operator response

we do not have any records of your booking unfortunately! this must be an error somehow from the main website Thank you for bringing this to our attention and we apologize for any inconvenience that we have caused. plz send me an email with your details at mohamed@walksofdubai.com

A great visit to Old Town...

A great visit to Old Town Dubai with an excellent guide who really brought the area’s history and culture to life. The walk through the traditional streets and landmarks was engaging and informative, and the explanations made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to understand the heritage side of Dubai in a short time

Viator like to scam folk, be very careful. local agents more reliable.

Guide didn't turn up, didn't email or contact me to let me know. Hotel staff informed me it happens on a frequent basis. Tried to contact Viator on Whatsapp because a contact number was difficult to find (they like to make life easy for one when things go wrong). No response from Viator what-so-ever. Poor show. Be very careful booking with Viator. I wonder if they have resorted to scamming folk ! I've booked trips with local agents, had no issues, professional, reliable, would reccomend.

Interesting tour

The Frame was incredible. The gold souk had amazing looking jewellery. We learnt a lot about the culture which was interesting and it was great to see how far they have come in building a modern society.
