At first we suffered a little bit because we had redeem digital tickets the paper tickets, the one that I honestly don't understand because a scanner would be enough to avoid having to enter the Dubai Mall looking for the point for ticket redemption. Considering that the Dubai Mall is huge, you really risk wasting time looking for this this Ticket Office also because not all the guards and the people in charge of giving you information, can explain exactly where it is. That said, the experience was very positive the boats that go around on the lake are electric and therefore noise free and do not pollute the dancing fountains show was very nice and quality service provided. Too bad only that the show itself lasts only three minutes the time of a song honestly to not be in the middle of thousands of people I suggest this tour. Private

Our family had a fantastic experience with 360 Tours during our Dubai city tour. Our guide, Ali, was professional, humble, and respectful, making the day smooth and enjoyable. He took us to amazing attractions like the Museum of the Future, Jumeirah Beach, Dubai Frame, souks, and Al Seef, while providing plenty of photo stops and keeping us hydrated with drinking water throughout the tour. Ali’s attention to detail and care for our comfort made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommend 360 Tours and Ali for a well-organized and memorable Dubai tour!
