I liked it! It is compact enough, half a day is enough for a walk, a meal, and light shopping. A lot of souvenir shops, outdoor cafes (budget compared to other locations), canopies and tents save from the sun. In general, it is worth visiting, but you should not count on some kind of history, museums, or overly interesting leisure time. Objectively, the place is at a time. It's just a souvenir town with traditional goods in an authentically beaten location.

Here you can stroll through the narrow streets with Arabic-style houses, visit national museums, take a boat ride along the bay and see the old town from the water.
The cost of a boat trip is 60 dirhams per half hour per person or 120 dirhams per hour.
Here you can walk through the local markets where national shoes, clothes, spices are sold. As always, sellers will try their best to attract your attention.
And then have a coffee in a cafe overlooking the bay and watch the planes take off from Dubai Airport. Dubai Travel Guide on telegram @letaemsami

Dubai's Old Town combines tradition and modernity, offering narrow streets, historic landmarks and lively souvenir markets. Abra boat trips and authentic Arabic dishes create a unique atmosphere. I would especially like to praise the Pulat guide for his professionalism and fascinating stories. To organize an unforgettable excursion, you can contact him by phone:

Bur Dubai is an old town, a real antique gem in an ultra-modern city. It is here that you can find that oriental flavor and immerse yourself in a journey into the past. Time flows slowly here, like water in ancient canals, and the air is saturated with the aromas of spices, strong invigorating coffee and tea. The old market seems like a living museum, where you can get lost among the bright fabrics, antique shops and ancient crafts. When you come here, you don't just walk through the streets – you immerse yourself in a world where the past meets the present, creating a unique atmosphere. This is a place that will stay in your heart forever🫶

A very atmospheric place for walks and photo shoots. It offers a beautiful view of the Khor-Dubai Canal. A huge selection of souvenirs at reasonable prices, sellers like to bargain))) I recommend it to every tourist, but not with an excursion, but on their own))

A must-visit place in Dubai and take a walk for an hour or two. The atmosphere of the place is very positive, and the mood towards the old Oriental is also interesting. Rest from the skyscrapers and near the canal. If finances allow, then I recommend cafes, souvenirs, and walks on the water.

For a leisurely independent walk and shopping / souvenir - definitely YES, but for once. But as part of a tourist / excursion group - absolutely NOT, you may not like the "race".
A small piece of old Dubai, narrow streets, lots of shops, public toilets are available. The sales touts are very annoying! The place is definitely pop-tourist for tour groups.

I recommend visiting, taking a walk, but you need to be prepared that the local population is very bored with buying unnecessary things.
For those who like to buy souvenirs, there may even be an interesting place - there are both old things and modern unnecessary ones)))

It's very cozy here. It is definitely worth coming at least once to take a walk. One of the disadvantages is the touts, who constantly drag them to their stalls. But even there you can find something interesting. The main thing is not to forget to bargain with them

You touch ancient objects, because these objects were in the hands of people who are not alive. I love such museums. There is silence around, you walk and look calmly...

A new model for the most part, but colorful. There are many shops and cafes. It's nice to sit at sunset. If you are tired of skyscrapers, then you can spend the day here. You can visit the coffee museum. You can cross the canal cheaply on an old boat and walk around the old town.

Atmospheric. You can visit it. This is a tourist destination that takes us into the atmosphere of a small Arab city, where passing through the oriental bazaar you can buy Chinese souvenirs. There are several restaurants overlooking the Creek. I liked it, but I want to believe that the administration will improve and develop the old town, because there are still few historical places. Almost none in Dubai.

The old part of the city has preserved echoes of the past with the opportunity to move back to that time. Interesting buildings, but at the moment most of them are under restoration and you won't be able to see everything. It's not worth taking an excursion for him :)

One evening we went for a walk to this place, we liked it! Very authentic done, lots of locations to take beautiful photos👍 Everything is located on the shore, so you can walk along the embankment or turn into narrow streets.
There are many places to eat: coffee shops, restaurants. There are many shops with various goods: souvenirs, antique items, as well as national clothes, carpets, etc
. It is easy to get there, it is located near the metro station, it takes literally 10 minutes to walk.
We liked the place!👍
