What You Will Do

Explore Al Ras, one of Dubai's most historic neighborhoods, on a 2-hour history and food walk through the Spice and Gold Souks. Enjoy snacks from across the Indian and Iranian communities that have historically given momentum to the souks. Taste our favorite ‘mash-up’ sandwich roll paired with steaming hot chai, stuffed breads fresh out of a street-side oven, a sweet-savory, wildly crunchy combo that the neighborhood Indian jewelers love for breakfast, and then an exquisite chocolate that’s proudly crafted in the country. Cool down with an icy Persian treat from one of the oldest cafeterias in the area. All snacks are veggie-friendly, but snacks containing dairy or gluten cannot be substituted. All through the tour, we will be sharing the stories and local tidbits that will make you travel back in time and truly appreciate the transformation that this humble fishing settlement has gone through over the past five decades.
