The 25 Best Things to Do in Dubai

"From its location within the emirate's cultural epicenter, Al Seef marries the city’s heritage with contemporary offerings. The 1.1-mile precinct that hugs the Dubai Creek is split into two areas: one dedicated to the past and another to the future. Meander through the charming laneways, stop and have a coffee or a meal at one of the many restaurants and cafes, or simply sit and watch the activity on the creek from one of the tranquil public spaces." - Melinda Healy

Al Seef - Marina Review | Condé Nast Traveler

"What’s this place all about? From its location within the Emirate's cultural epicenter, Al Seef marries the city’s heritage with contemporary offerings. The 1.1-mile precinct that hugs the Dubai Creek is split into two areas: one dedicated to the past and another to the future. Meander through the charming laneways, stop and have a coffee or a meal at one of the many restaurants and cafes, or simply sit and watch the activity on the creek from one of the tranquil public spaces. What’s it like being there? The bustling waterside precinct is buzziest in the evenings. Come at sunset for the best snaps. Is there a guide involve? Al Seef doesn't have dedicated guides, but there are plenty of third-party tour companies that make this a stop. Who comes here? Al Seef is popular among Emirati families, expats, and international visitors. Did it meet expectations? This relatively new urban development has been welcomed by both residents and tourists alike. To wander along the creek is to experience one of the oldest parts of the city, and that alone offers valuable insight into how the Dubai we know today came to be. Deira, the city’s main commercial district, is just a short abra (traditional water taxi) ride away, and the Al Fahidi Historical District not too far down the road. What, or who, do you think it’s best for? It's worth reserving a few hours to meander here. Evenings are best if you're keen on experiencing the landmark's bustling family vibe, and it's a more comfortable choice in winter than in the dead heat of summer." - Melinda Healy

This place was my absolutely favourite in the entire Dubai journey. This place has a calming vibe with extremely beautiful art all around the place. They sell beautiful artefacts and they also have some amazing cafés around.

Loved the heritage vibes of this place, it’s like a little backwater picnic spot with plenty food and drink options.

Long walk for peace recommended.Good view and ambience to pass your time. Lovely restaurants to satisfy your stomach. The energy across street let's you be yourself.

Al Seef is such a peaceful place. We walked along the water, enjoyed the old-style streets, and felt so calm. The views, the breeze, and the quiet atmosphere made it a really beautiful and refreshing spot for families.

The rating has nothing to do with the place. It is just because the timing we went was in the morning 9:30-10:30, the shops are still not fully opened yet. As we were concerned of high temperature if going at a later time The place is fantastic to visit.

Its all about old side of the luxurious Dubai. Every shop has a unique design to it and a great place for a walk while enjoying some shopping as well. Since it has sun shades overhead you don’t have to worry about day time visiting the place. It has a different vibe at night time and you must visit both day and night to see the two sides of this extraordinary place.
