    I was in Dubai for a business trip and had some free time to explore. I wanted to see the street markets but was concerned about how aggressive the vendors tend to be. This tour was perfect for me. Just a quick introduction to the old section of Dubai and the Souk market places. The guide was very knowledgeable and assisted several guests in the tour with negotiating a good price on purchases.
