- We thought Dubai was expensive, but we were wrong! Today we stayed in Old Dubai, the little fishing village where Dubai started, and where everything is still dirt-cheap. Take a guided tour around old town here: www.getyourgui...
This is Day 1 of a 7-day adventure in Dubai. See them all here: • One Week in Dubai!
We took some amazing pics here. Check us out on Instagram:

This looks 1000x more appealing than the New Dubai!!
Yeah, they both have their draws. This is definitely more our style than new Dubai.
wow i clicked on this randomly to see the boats and i found myself watching the whole thing and enjoying literally every second even though i live here (for about 10 years) haha enjoy Dubai
Thank you so much!! That's seriously the nicest comment ever. You just made our day! :) We LOVE Dubai!
Wisam AC 10 years in Dubai is a life time. I’ve been here for 18 months now, I dig it. Did you go to the Gulfood Convention or taste of Dubai this year? I have some recaps on my channel.

You know guys, nobody shows this part of Dubai and I didn't know these little streets and free museums and small squares even exited. It's all very lovely and would possibly be absolutely necessary for me if I was to ever live in the middle of a bustling place like that. Anyone know about Signapore and if it has calm places like this too?
Outside of the marina area of downtown Singapore is mostly residential so it is much calmer. They don't really have an "old town" like this though. -Brian
Wowww ✨👌👌👌👌✨
Excellent Dubai Show's Beautuful ✨👌✨
You have shot this video in an amazing way. Today I was missing these parts of Dubai and so, amid nostalgia, I typed in the search bar "old dubai" and landed on this wonderful video.
Thanks for your effort. I have subscribed.
So glad we could help with the nostalgia. We absolutely loved exploring Old Dubai, so I'm happy you felt like we did it justice in this video. Thanks so much for the support! -Brian
I had my Childhood spent in old DUBAI BASTAKIYA. I REALLY WANT TO VISIT MY OLD DUBAI ONCE AGAIN. THANKS TO YOU TWO. I LOVE YOU BOTH.
Hopefully you can get back there and visit again soon. It's such an amazing place! -Brian
Do not destroy the old dubai with a supermodern architectures, so beautiful there 😍
It seems like they're leaving Old Dubai alone and just letting it continue operating as is, which I'm happy about since it gives you a different experience in Dubai if you want it. -Brian
Nice, you two really make traveling look so easy :D I can't wait to see more videos!!!
Haha, thanks Salime. We were talking about that on our trip. It helps that both of us have the same style of travel (good mix of saving money/exploring/immersing in culture). I think traveling gets difficult when you try to accommodate two types of itineraries at once.
I'm amazed at how many different languages they spoke in that market.Love all the spices, it reminds me of Fez in Morocco.Wow!I didn't know that pearl diving was such a big thing when Dubai started.The old city is so interesting and the food looks delicious!
We are dying to get to Morocco!! Is Fez as pushy and aggressive as this market was?
no, Fez was actually quite relaxed, we could walk around the market the whole day without anyone actually bothering us. :)
That sounds like a dream!
Those Dubai vlogs are pretty neat! Subbed.
Thanks so much! We loved Dubai. Can't wait to go back again! -Brian
Finally i ve found a video about real Dubai! (except the music...) i like it!
So close! Sorry about the music. Still learning. :/
@@PerfectLittlePlanet, i d like local music, Arabian
That's a great idea. Thank you.
Nice Vlog, so captivating as I will travelling to Dubai in 48 hrs. Thanks for the heads up.
Awesome! Have so much fun! We loved it. We have a lot more videos from Dubai if you want more ideas. Let us know if you have any questions. -Brian
Your color correcting is on point ☝️
We actually didn't use color correction, Dubai is actually that spectacular! -Isa
History matters. Love it.
For sure. We love exploring "old town" wherever we go. Always so interesting.
Thanks for you beautiful video. Greeting from IRAN❤⚘🇮🇷
Oh wow! Greetings! I'd love to visit your country sometime. I've heard it's so beautiful!
brilliant one you love Dubai my city i love ya folks... alwayz welcome habibi....
Thanks! Dubai is so great. We've been twice and still can't wait to go back again.
Visited a couple of weeks ago. What an awesome place!
Right?! We can't wait to go back. What was your favorite thing to do in Dubai? -Brian
@@PerfectLittlePlanet Global Village!
Hi there.. it's a lovely video. Plz suggest cheapest possible stay in Dubai.. near to metro station.
Ujjwal Kapoor you sexy
How neat, didnt knpw this at all, wow, stick with this. Didnt know tbat there was something bettrr than greec island. AWESOME!
I haven't been to the Greek islands yet, so I can't compare. But Dubai is pretty amazing. Definitely worth visiting! -Brian
Dubai is beautiful city 😍❤️ Nd loved your vlog ❤️
It really is! We can't wait to go back and explore more!
Thanks for the vid it was really usefull!
You're welcome. Glad we could help! :) -Brian
Very liked this video wonderful
So happy you liked it. :)
Dubai always amazing 📸📸✌️✌️
For sure. We can't wait to go back! -Brian
This looks like a really nice market! But the pushiness of the sellers would turn me off buying anything really...
It turned us off too. We really wanted to buy a little camel souvenir, but every time we stopped to look at them, there was so much pressure, so we left.
I know the feeling! In Vietnam, the "fancy" stores think good customer service is standing 1 foot away from you silently while you browse. Ran away from really nice stores because of that!
Firstly they are a bit extra pushy to women which sucks but then you have to think about their perspective. They would assume you're in the Souk to buy stuff and that you're interested in being engaged, haggling and finding good deals. Not just just walking about.
Give them slap there itself
Loving your vlog from here in the UK, our first Dubai trip is in 28 days & I've watched all your blogs, twice! they are awesome. Truly helpful..thank you so much. Not so sure about the 'Brain Masala though (6.05 in) doesn't even say what brains they are.... not sure it makes a difference tho! hahaha
Yay! So glad we could help you plan your trip. Dubai is so much fun and so interesting. Hopefully you have a great experience there too. Let us know if you have any other questions! -Brian
There is no one around. That’s so weird. But I love that. 💎💎💎
Agreed! Weird to have nobody around, but so fun to explore and feel like you have it all to yourself! -Isa
Amazing thanks man
You're welcome! Hope it helps. :) -Brian
Very well thanks alot fir showing us the prices.. tell me about food prices i travel alone im going to dubai next 20th
Food is actually a lot less expensive than we thought it'd be, even outside Old Dubai. The restaurants inside the malls are pretty expensive, but if you use Zomato (basically Yelp, but more popular over there), you can find really great restaurants scattered around the city for really reasonable prices. -Brian
Old dubai 👌 best
Such a fun experience and so different from what most people see in Dubai!
Good information
Thank you
Very beautiful photography
Iam from India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳 nearest Varanasi
Hi! Nice to meet you. Thank you for your nice comments.
Which Camera u used for making this video & what you did for an amazing stabilization?
We're using a Canon G7X with the stabilization on, but then I also add stabilization in Final Cut Pro to make it even smoother. Thanks! -Brian
I Like Dubai
Me too! -Brian
Superb
Thanks!
nice video......
Thank you!!
Cute Dubai amazing place, from ate zosy
We love Dubai!!
is it safe for a woman to tour old Dubai alone
The one thing that you'll find is that you'll get hassled walking through markets as the hawkers are aggressive, but whether I was walking ahead of Brian or with him though, it didn't matter. As far as general safety goes though, everything is totally fine. Just use your street smarts! :) -Isa
Lol thank you so much
Chantelle Green totally safe. only shop keeprs will ask you buy otherwise v safe
Chantelle Green totally! Dubai is very safe if you got in any situation with man .. all other people there will help you dont worry;)!
HI. I WANT GO TO DUBAI..PLZ TELL WHAT THE NAME OR ADRESS OF THAT PLACE SO I CAN VISSIT THERE.
We stayed at the AVANI Deira Dubai Hotel. It was pretty basic, but nice. -Brian
Which hotel were u at?
We stayed at the AVANI Deira Dubai Hotel. It was pretty basic, but nice. -Brian
Like for the Indian Cuisine
It was so good!
6:13 Pakistani restaurant
My bad. Thanks! -Brian
No no, it's totally fine, I was just pointing out for people who love Pakistani style of cooking more (Pakistanis put less bay leaves or almost none and a few other spices are a bit different, but we're mostly similar hence no issues bruv)
Muzna Shafi yes definitely needed Pakistani restaurant
found in deira which so nice.
as to other indian places their food is nice but too strong
The "shakira" thing is funny. Happens all the time u know!
Do you know why that is? I found it flattering. 😂-Isa
You picked the PAKISTANI one at 6.01 and called it indian one... how rude. Rest excellent video
Oh wow, I hadn't noticed that. My apologies. You are correct.
No problems. Keep up the good work. Love from Pakistan ;)
no real diffrence for me ;-)
Well that was a Pakistani restaurant u had lunch at. Not an Indian restaurant
Whoops! Our mistake. Thanks for pointing that out.
I know about this souk
How was your experience in that souk? Similar to ours? -Brian
@@PerfectLittlePlanet dear before I m living in dubai with my family .. I was living in hamriyah then I shifted to rashidiyah .. It was a really great place and affordable thing's 4 middle class people
Is Dubai a monarchy
Dubai is a constitutional monarchy. The ruling family can make decisions within the legal bounds (a constitution) that have been set.
and I read don't go to Dubai on a budget - not so - I am too
Yeah, it's totally possible to do it on a budget. Have fun! -Brian
Nah dont go dubai in budget i live in kuwait ..kuwait city is really expensive city to live in and i find dubai so much more expensive so never go on budget i dont think you will have fun .. do it whwn you have more money✋🏻
FYI: The reason they require a local number for WiFi is to send across an authentication number for you to get connected. It's not at all "so dumb".
I understand why they do it, but it's so dumb because the signs are posted in touristy areas. Tourists don't have local numbers. I've been to plenty of countries where the wifi is free and open, you just have to click a button to agree to the terms and conditions and then you're connected. -Brian
Are you guys members of the Church of Jesus Christ by chance? :) Love your videos!!!!
We are. What tipped you off?
Haha how cool! I am too! I Just noticed the colar of the “shirt” that we wear under the regular shirt hahah in like 4 videos in a row so I was like maybe???? Hahaha
When i was in old dubai im also scared...they like pushing & ask your money to come to their shop...also got some beggars asking your money...i rather choose go to Mall in dubai which is people not disturbing you....when they see all white girl they call shakira even me they call & show hand in face because i have pimple in my face.... i don’t understand why they judging a tourist like that...its is jerk when have pimple in old dubai...? its really bad experience when i go to old dubai....
Sorry you had a bad experience there. Some cultures are more direct when it comes to pointing out flaws. I remember when I went to visit friends in Cambodia, the first thing they said when I got there was, "Why are you so fat?" I think you just have to laugh it off and not take it too personally. I still think Old Dubai is worth visiting. Hopefully if you go back, you'll have a better experience. -Brian
Perfect Little Planet hehe its ok bro.. whatever it is Dubai still the best place I ever visit.. i like water taxi..global village, miracle garden, festival city.. a lot of interesting place to visit...btw tq for your response..😊
Yeah, we still have so much to visit! We didn't have time for the Miracle Garden or Festival City. And maybe next time we'll go to the Palm or go skydiving. So much to do there! -Brian
Perfect Little Planet yeahh a lot of activity can do there.. don’t forget dessert ride also..btw i love to see your channel.. keep it up bro...
Wonderful and reminiscent of the old days. However, the behavior of the shop people is not acceptable, and one should seriously report this to the tourist office, and even higher up if this still happens. Dubai is very modern, and they take complaints seriously. The problem is that many of the people who work here are from third world survival countries (no need to mention nationality or ethnicity), and they don't realize how bad-mannered they are sometimes. It's just an educational thing, and I am sure when it gets to the ears of some official higher up that they will take measures in order to change this behaviour. It's a possitive meant-for-education thing to do, not negative. Again, if this still happens these days, one might even try a signature petition, just to improve tourism over there. Not to mention touching a lady, be it with a cloth, which is a big offense in this part of the world. Old Dubai is a lovely and historic place.
Anyone is welcome to use this video if they want to notify any authorities about behaviors that need to change, but we're not going to make a big deal out of it, especially not now, 4 years after we were there. We can't be sure the markets are still even like that. -Brian
@@PerfectLittlePlanet I didn't realize that it was an old post. I have modified my comment for today's visitors in case they have complaints of this kind.
@@margueriteduras1657 Great update. Very useful for tourists. Thanks!
