Dubai Experience with Navita
We spent seven days and six nights in Dubai over Christmas. Throughout our stay, Navita managed all transportation and activities and served as our main point of contact. Their service was exceptional, consistently updating us about the following day’s schedule and ensuring that everything ran smoothly. All of the drivers were not only professional but also extremely friendly, making our experiences truly memorable. I’d like to make special mention of Arif, Muneer, Ali, and Hamid who drove us to several key destinations—they were fantastic! Vishwas oversaw the overall coordination and was both responsive and accountable. I wish him the very best!!

A Memorable Dubai Experience with Navita Tours 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
We had an amazing time in Dubai, all thanks to Viswas, Navita Tours for organising such a smooth and amazing trip and always made sure we were comfortable. A big thank you to our awesome captains — Raja, Rajesh, Shazab, Durgesh, and Munir — who were always there to help with a smile. Their hospitality really stood out. A special shout-out to Rajesh, who was just outstanding throughout. He went the extra mile every time and took such good care of everyone. Truly a memorable trip — well planned and even better executed. Highly recommended! Once again Thanks to Navita Tours.

Great experience with Munir on a two-day tour in Dubai and Abu Dabhi
Munir gave us an outstanding two-day tour of Dubai, during which we visited the Dubai Marina, the Palm at the Jumeirah, the Burj Al Arab, the Atlantis Hotel and Waterpark, the Burk Khalifa, the Dubai Mall, the Dubai Aquarium, and the Museum of the Future. On the second day, he drove us from Dubai to Abu Dhabi, where we visited the Grand Sheik Zayed Mosque and the QasarAl Watan Palace, one of the most excellent palaces we’ve ever visited. We had lunch at the LalQila Pakistani restaurant. Finally, we visited the Marina F1 race track and the Ferrari Amusement Park. Munir took us to the Spice Market in Old Downtown Dubai. We entered the SMJU General Trading store, where they wanted us to swindle. Beware of these thieves who offer the best spices and prices in this market; in the end, they only want to fraud you.

Communication and description needs to improve
The very poor communication from this company which created stress on my holiday and let the experience down. Firstly, the city tour was cancelled due to the heavy rain. I wasn't notified of this, instead I was left waiting & wasting precious time. I was told to await further communication regarding the options for this but no further communication ever arrived. There was also no communication received regarding the pick up time for the Abu Dhabi day, I had to contact them to find out, also didn't include the stop at the Heritage place which I was looking forward to, doesn't happen on a Friday apparently - in that case then make the description clearer as I would have booked a different day! No further communication after I asked about rescheduling the city tour I'd missed, eventually I managed it on my final day but again, this was only after several attempts made to contact them re pick up time. The city tour then didn't cover a view of the palm as indicated, there was another couple on my tour and the driver went out of the way to please them. I thought we were going round the creek for an Abra ride and souk visit but didn't happen because they didn't want to do it, well, in that case then, no point driving me right round the other side of the creek to drop them off to drive me back again when I could have been dropped off first!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. we are really sorry for your inconvenience on tour. But as you know there was too much rain on those days and most of the places have heavy water logging still we continue the tour because we just want to our all guest at least visit some places as much as possible. Thank you so much

Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubai.
How much does Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dubai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dubai is not rushed.
Is Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dubai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dubai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dubai and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dubai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dubai?
+
On Outty we rank every Dubai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dubai Premium Red Dunes Safari, Camels & 5* BBQ at Al Khayma Camp, Dubai: Red Dunes Safari, Quad, Camel, Dune Bash, BBQ & Shows, Dubai Evening Desert Safari Dune Bashing, BBQ Dinner & Live Shows. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dubai?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dubai?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour?
+
Included: In-vehicle air conditioning; and Water/Juice. Not included: Gratuities; and Food. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 1335 listed pickup locations in and around Dubai. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour?
+

Is Dubai & Abu Dhabi: Iconic Landmarks & City Highlights Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
