About Tour Guide Ishtiaq A.
Hey! I'm Ishtiaq – a certified tour guide with a degree in Psychology and Tourism Management (yes, I can read minds and maps!). Licensed by Dubai’s Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM), I’ve had the pleasure of guiding thousands of visitors across the UAE – from ancient Bedouin traditions to jaw-dropping skyscrapers that seem to defy gravity.
With a deep love for this land and a slightly unhealthy obsession with fun facts, I craft every tour to match your interests—whether you're into record-breaking buildings, bargaining in bustling souqs, or riding camels into golden sunsets. Expect history, culture, a few jokes, and maybe a hidden gem or two along the way.
Let me show you the real Dubai—one adventure (and smile) at a time!
