Private Dubai City Tour, Built Around You

Some cities you visit. Dubai you experience.

We’ve been driving visitors around Dubai since 2012, and we’ve learned one thing: the guests who enjoy it most never race a bus timetable. Our private Dubai city tour is a Dubai city tour with driver, in a private car, at your pace. Your chauffeur waits at every stop, knows where to park, and knows which entrance saves you a walk in the heat. Skip what doesn’t interest you. Stay longer where it does.

Half-Day Dubai City Tour (4 Hours)

This private Dubai city tour is perfect for stopovers and first-time visitors.

We start on Sheikh Zayed Road for the skyline, then stop at Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall. Book At The Top early, because sunset slots sell out first. Next is a quick photo stop at Jumeirah Mosque. For the best Burj Al Arab photo, we skip the hotel gate and take you to Jumeirah Public Beach. We finish at Atlantis on Palm Jumeirah, then take a slow drive through Dubai Marina before your hotel drop-off.

Full-Day Dubai City Tour (8 Hours)

Old and new Dubai in one day: the most complete private Dubai city tour we offer.

Start early in Al Fahidi Historical District, cross Dubai Creek on a traditional AED 1 abra, then explore the Gold and Spice Souks in Deira. Midday brings the Dubai Frame and the Museum of the Future, so book your timed tickets ahead. After lunch, choose from Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, and Dubai Aquarium, followed by Souk Madinat Jumeirah. End on Palm Jumeirah and Dubai Marina as the skyline lights up.

Chauffeur tip:

June to September, plan outdoor stops before 11 a.m. or after 4 p.m. Keep midday for the malls and museums.

Prefer to Explore Freely? Book a Dubai Tour by Car, Hourly

Not everyone wants an itinerary. Some guests want a car and a driver who knows the city, then decide as they go. Our hourly booking covers exactly that kind of private car sightseeing in Dubai. Book a minimum of 4 hours and use the time however you like: shopping, meetings, sightseeing, or all three.

Dawood is great driver, patient and has made our first experience in Dubai memorable. He is knowledgeable about the areas and shares ideas on sites to visit as first time visitors. I would highly recommend him to people travelling to Dubai.

Extend Your Trip: Abu Dhabi & Sharjah

Full day

Abu Dhabi City Tour

A proper Abu Dhabi day starts early. The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque opens to visitors at 9 a.m. (on Fridays it closes from midday until mid-afternoon), and arriving before the tour buses makes a real difference. Visitor tickets are booked online in advance, and we can arrange yours.

From there you continue to Emirates Palace, the Louvre Abu Dhabi on Saadiyat, and Qasr Al Watan, the presidential palace that opened to the public in 2019. Families often add Ferrari World on Yas Island. Lunch is usually on the corniche.

Full day or half day

Sharjah City Tour

This is the cultural side of the UAE that most visitors miss. It covers Al Noor Mosque on Khalid Lagoon, the Sharjah Heritage Area, Al Qasba's waterfront cafés, and the Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization. Inside visits to Al Noor are by guided tour on set mornings only, so we plan your day around them.

For desert and history together, the Mleiha Archaeological Centre is about an hour away. Sharjah works as a calmer full day or a half-day add-on after Dubai.
