3 h
About this activity
Join us for a walking tour and a three-course dinner meal in Old Dubai. 
You will get to sample food specialties from the region. This tour brings for you most authentic traditional Emirati meals over a multi-course dinner walk.
We will weave through the Spice Souk where you can smell the beautiful aromas of different spices and have some tea and dates.
We arrive to enjoy Middle-Eastern appetizers via a wooden abra (boat) with stunning views of the Dubai Creek. After some Taboulleh, Hummus & Falafel, sambousek and Moutabel under our belt we head to our main course inside a traditional courtyard restaurant. We will also visit the Al Fahidi Fort and the Dubai Museum to understand the Pearl-Diving history of the UAE. 
With surprise foods, traditions, pallet cleansers and taste-bud challengers, this food tour is so popular for a reason. Come to find out why and oh...make sure you arrive hungry!
