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.
Response from the operator: 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.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Dubai Souks, Museum, Street Food Walking Tour with Dubai Frame: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubai.
How much does Dubai Souks, Museum, Street Food Walking Tour with Dubai Frame cost?
+
Prices start at $18 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 Souks, Museum, Street Food Walking Tour with Dubai Frame take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Souks, Museum, Street Food Walking Tour with Dubai Frame worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 12 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 Souks, Museum, Street Food Walking Tour with Dubai Frame?
+
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 Souks, Museum, Street Food Walking Tour with Dubai Frame suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Dubai Souks, Museum, Street Food Walking Tour with Dubai Frame?
+
Around 4 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Dubai Souks, Museum, Street Food Walking Tour with Dubai Frame 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 Dune Buggy Safari Tour in Red Dunes Options. 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.
