Discover the Local Experts Behind the Best Tours in Dubai

Planning a trip to Dubai? If you’re anything like most travelers today, you’re spending hours browsing GetYourGuide, Viator, and other booking platforms, trying to figure out the best things to do without blowing your budget or wasting time. Sound familiar?

That’s exactly why we created MyGoDubai — to give you a better way to book city tours and experiences, built on real local expertise, human support, and genuine quality.

Because let’s be honest — when it comes to Dubai, you don’t just need options… you need guidance.

And that’s what makes us different.

1. Our Tours Are Created and Run by Official, Professional Guides

Unlike large platforms that list tours from random third-party suppliers — many of whom you’ll never meet until the day of the activity — MyGoDubai is built by guides, for travelers.

We are a team of licensed, official Dubai tour guides, with years of experience leading visitors through the city’s most iconic landmarks and hidden gems. Every city tour, every activity you see on our platform has been:

Carefully curated by us
Personally tested by our team
Led by professionals with deep knowledge of Dubai’s history, culture, and daily life

You’re not just booking a tour — you’re gaining access to genuine storytelling, rich context, and local secrets you won’t find in guidebooks or generic tours.

That’s our signature difference. And our passion.

2. You Choose. We Organize. For Free.

When you book with platforms like Viator or GetYourGuide, you’re left to figure it all out on your own — timing, transportation, traffic, hotel distance, and the desert heat.
That’s a lot to manage.

At MyGoDubai, we turn your selections into a smart, smooth, and optimized itinerary. All you have to do is:

Browse our curated list of top-rated tours and activities
Choose the ones you love
Tell us where you’re staying (or ask us for hotel suggestions)

And that’s it.
🎯 We’ll plan the entire schedule for you, ensuring:

Activities don’t overlap
You don’t spend hours stuck in traffic
You enjoy the coolest times of the day
Everything is logistically possible and enjoyable

✅ And we do all of this for FREE — because we believe in service, not just sales.

3. Real People. Local Advice. No Bots..

Here’s the truth:
GetYourGuide and Viator are booking engines. They show you options and process your payment — but after that, you’re pretty much on your own.

At MyGoDubai, you’re not just another booking ID. You’re a traveler who deserves attention and real support.

We’re available on:

✅ WhatsApp
✅ Email
✅ Phone

…to help you before, during, and after your trip. Whether you have a question about dress codes, need help finding your driver, or want to make last-minute changes — we’re here.

4. Tailor-Made Planning Based on Your Hotel.

You booked a nice hotel on Booking.com or Airbnb — great!
But do you know if it’s close to where your tours start?
Is there heavy traffic around it at 9 AM?
Can you visit the desert and the Marina on the same day?

Most big platforms won’t tell you — they can’t. They’re not local.

But we are.
We use our in-depth local knowledge to create a smart daily schedule based on your location, your preferences, and your comfort. We help you:

Avoid wasting time in traffic
Beat the heat with smart timing
Mix indoor/outdoor activities wisely
Enjoy your holiday, stress-free

You stay in control. We make it work.

5. Curated, Quality-Checked Experiences Only

GetYourGuide and Viator often list hundreds of tour providers, with no real quality check beyond customer reviews. You might get lucky with a great guide — or not.

With MyGoDubai, quality comes first.

Our team personally tries every tour before listing it.
We only work with licensed, insured, and highly rated partners.
We don’t list hundreds of similar tours — we select the best one for each experience, led by guides we trust.

Think of us as your personal concierge, not a search engine.

6. Competitive Prices — No Hidden Costs

Many travelers think big platforms are cheaper. In reality, they often charge commission fees up to 25-30% to local operators — and those costs can be passed on to you.

At MyGoDubai:

You pay fair prices, often lower than international platforms
No surprise taxes or “service fees”
You support local professionals directly — not Silicon Valley

7. Community-Focused, Woman-Led, Dubai-Based

We’re proud to be:

A locally based travel business
Led by a licensed French-speaking guide and her team
Focused on authentic, respectful, and meaningful travel experiences in the UAE

We’re not chasing mass bookings — we care about each traveler’s experience.

Whether you’re coming with your family, your friends, or exploring solo — we’ve got you covered with honest advice and real passion for Dubai.
