Stops on this hunt
Wind Tower Lanes
Long before air conditioning, these lanes kept their cool with clever engineering. Square towers rise above the rooftops, built to grab passing breezes and send them down into the rooms below. The narrow alleys between the houses mattered too, trapping shade and channeling air. Compare a few towers and look closely at the old walls.
Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding
This restored wind-tower house has one big job: answering questions. Visitors come here to learn about Emirati traditions, faith and everyday life straight from locals, often over a shared meal. Its welcome is so central to its mission that it shows up in the centre's motto. Take in the doorway and the tower from the lane outside.
Wall of Old Dubai
This modest stretch of stone is a survivor. A defensive wall once wrapped around the old town, guarding the homes inside. Most of it was knocked down as the town outgrew its boundaries, leaving just this fragment behind. Size it up, study the weathered stones and picture the barrier running on far beyond what you can see today.
Dubai Old Souk Abra Station
Here the creek turns into a busy two-way street. Little wooden water taxis called abras chug from bank to bank around the clock, packed with commuters, shoppers and curious travelers. Watch a boat pull in, see how riders settle up and listen for what powers it. Please keep well back from the water's edge while you look around.
Textile Souk Arcade
Bolts of silk, cotton and shimmering embroidery spill from shopfronts along this shaded lane. Look up: the soaring roof is the real showstopper, built to keep shoppers cool long before air conditioning. Follow the arches, spot what holds them up and soak in the friendly bustle of a market that has been trading on this spot for generations.
Al Fahidi Fort
Long before glass towers rose along the coast, this sturdy fort guarded the little settlement by the creek. With thick walls, watchtowers, and a heavy gate, it is the oldest building still standing in the city. It has spent years under careful restoration, so admire it from the street and imagine sentries scanning the horizon from its towers.
Al Seef Creekside Promenade
Stroll the creekside promenade, where wind towers, weathered-looking walls, and shaded lanes line the water. Wooden boats drift past on the creek, and the old-style buildings feel like a step back in time. Look closely, though: not everything here is as ancient as it appears. Find a spot by the water and compare it with the genuinely old lanes nearby.

It was good family fun. Great that you can pause to have lunch etc. was fairly easy but didn’t initially realise clues had time limits - hence missed out! Would definitely do another elsewhere.
