Emirati Food Guide for Visitors

Why this experience stands out

Local cuisine is easy to find once you know the dishes.

Try machboos, harees, luqaimat and karak chai. It is the detail most guests tell us they wish they had known before arriving, and it shapes how the rest of the day is planned.

Costs, timings and season

Al Fahidi and Al Seef have the best heritage restaurants.

Prices across our city tours & sightseeing range are quoted per person in UAE dirhams and include hotel transfers wherever stated on the tour page. Booking a few days ahead almost always secures a better slot than walking up on the day.

Insider tips from our guides

Food walks include five or six tastings across old Dubai.

Our guides run this route several times a week, so if your dates, group size or mobility needs are unusual, message us before booking and we will suggest the version of the experience that fits.
