We took a sightseeing tour of Dubai. The photo stop is interesting for those who are in the Emirates for the first time (some of the most iconic places). Alexey sold the tour. He tells the essence of the tour quickly and interestingly, a big plus is that you can not buy some elements of the tour and then the price is lower. In general, the tour is cheaper by 15-20 dollars than the hotel guide. We personally did not take the climb to the observation deck because we are very afraid of heights and walked around the shopping center for an hour, where there were good shops with sales.
Fountains don't last long, but you can find out about it before the trip (we got to the performance under the song "Kalinka- malinka"). But you can take a walk in the square in front of the fountains, it's very atmospheric.
Elena, the guide on the bus, told a lot about the Emirates in an incredibly interesting way. She has a separate respect

We went on a sightseeing tour of Dubai. The negative reviews were very annoying. However, everything went very well. There were nuances that I didn't like, but I didn't reduce the stars. Photo stops are complete bullshit, but we didn't waste much time. The ending at the tower is also a bit clueless: it takes more than an hour and the performance with fountains lasts 2 minutes. There is no time to go to the shops and there is not much place to walk there. All other locations are very decent. The Russian-speaking guide tells the whole story perfectly. It declines the numerals a little incorrectly, but otherwise very interesting and informative information. In general, some people put one star in vain.

We went to the zoo with a Safari park from this organizer on March 1, 2024.1.
We lived in Ramada beach Ajman and expected that all tourists would be from our hotel and the neighboring one, because when buying the tour we were told that we would quickly get to the place in an hour. In fact, we were driven through all the corners of Sharjah and instead of the promised hour, we got to the Safari Park for 2 hours (there were no traffic jams)!
2. There was no guide or escort on the bus with us, only an Indian driver who did not speak a word of Russian, ran after tourists at the hotel, gathered everyone, counted, drove.
3. This item was the last straw and why I gave 1 star. When we finally got to the zoo, the driver couldn't really explain anything, organize, tell us where and what. Maybe he didn't know English well, or he was just an illiterate person. As a result, tickets with QR codes to enter the park were in his phone and the whole group of us began to crowd around him on the road near the bus to get them. Although the organizer could have just sent these tickets to votspapp the day before or printed them out and distributed them. But no, they were too lazy or decided to save money. As a result, the Indian driver took everyone's phone in his hands and took pictures of these qr codes from his phone screen. At the entrance to the park, a terrible fuss began, because he gave only 2 qr codes to the families of 3 people, etc. Someone, like us, was not lucky at all, because the driver's phone was dirty and with a stained screen, then the qr code at the entrance to 1 of the three tickets simply did not begin to be read. Some of the tourists left, and 8 people from our group got stuck at the entrance and lost 30 minutes while dealing with the administrator and this unfortunate driver.
I liked the zoo very much, the large beautiful territory, there are fans with water everywhere, it was comfortable to walk, it was not hot. The safari park as part of the common area with a separate entrance is also interesting, but the animals were not too close to the bus, although the teenage children liked everything.
In the summer, this zoo does not work as far as I understand because of the heat.
