Don’t waste your money
Nothing as described! Waste of money . First the car was old and dirty. The 4 of us barely fit . The seats were so uncomfortable my back and hips were hurting the whole day . My poor husband had to crawl in and out of the back seat , who is over 6ft tall . My legs were crammed up to my chest behind the driver . Second . This was the biggest waste of money ! From the horrible car experience to going on absolutely no where . The descriptions lead you to believe yiu will go to mosque . Even though it says admission not included we still should have had the opportunity to go inside . We were suppose to go to the soun to experience the fresh food and fish . Never went inside. All stops were from outside the places ! 5 minutes to take a picture . We stopped for lunch . But by the time we sat down we were rushing to get back to the car . Absolutely a waste of a day and money . The whole day was in this awful car . And we didn’t get any culture experience besides hurry up and take a picture. We went to one museum. Which was free to any visitor. Again we needed over a good hour to tour museum but had to be at car in 40 minutes. The driver offered to stop at a cafe to get coffe or tea . Which the 3 of us wanted . But it was this dirty place off the side of a highway . Then no one wanted anything bc of the place it was going to come from . The driver was ok . But the unprofessional car situation made this day miserable . We were all in the car were in pain from the hard bulging old seats with our legs cramped . Drove by waste your money
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are genuinely sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations. And Sorry for the late response too. We would like to clarify that this particular itinerary is designed primarily as a scenic Five Emirates Tour, covering approximately 450 km in one day. Due to the long driving distance and multiple locations covered, stops are planned mainly for viewpoints, short visits, and photo opportunities, rather than extended indoor visits. It appears that your expectations were for a more in-depth cultural and walking-style experience, which unfortunately did not align with the nature of this tour. Regarding the vehicle, we regret that you found it uncomfortable. Guest comfort is very important to us, and we take such feedback seriously for future improvements. As requested after the tour, we processed a 50% refund of the tour cost as a goodwill gesture, despite the tour being operated as scheduled. We hoped this would reflect our willingness to resolve the matter fairly. We are sorry that the experience fell short of what you had hoped for, and we appreciate your comments, which help us improve and communicate tour expectations more clearly for future guests. We wish you all the best in your future travels.

Our tour was amazing, our guide was so informative and a truly lovely guy he showed us some amazing places from Forts,Mosques Mountain scenery to beaches so much to see in one day but the highlight for me was pulling over at side of the road and feeding camels we had spotted on the drive truly memorable and made my day and my trip to Dubai. I would throughly recommend this trip.

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Five Emirates Full Day Tour from Dubai with Hotel Transfers: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubai.
How much does Five Emirates Full Day Tour from Dubai with Hotel Transfers cost?
+
Prices start at $100 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 Five Emirates Full Day Tour from Dubai with Hotel Transfers take?
+
Plan for about 9 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 Five Emirates Full Day Tour from Dubai with Hotel Transfers worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 125 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 Five Emirates Full Day Tour from Dubai with Hotel Transfers?
+
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 Five Emirates Full Day Tour from Dubai with Hotel Transfers suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Five Emirates Full Day Tour from Dubai with Hotel Transfers?
+
Around 44 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Five Emirates Full Day Tour from Dubai with Hotel Transfers 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.
