overhyped market

The market is a sensory delight, with an array of colorful spices, herbs, and exotic ingredients. While there are bits to this spice souk experience that can be enjoyable or say amusing. But honestly, I think the best bit of visiting the Dubai spice souk was the boat trip across the creek. What's not cool is the constant badgering from the salesmen. The spice souk in Dubai is a great contrast to the luxurious lifestyle, buildings and cars in Dubai. Haggling is expected, so be prepared to negotiate in most places. In fact, our tour guide said if the price wasn't marked then as tourists we need to bargain otherwise the product will be terribly overpriced. #unitedarabemiratestrip
