  • 5Fantastic

    Wonderful experience all round. All the stops were fantastic and well explained by the guide. Pick up and drop off was super easy and communication was great. Shafi couldn’t have been any better! He helped me out a lot by taking photos for me, haggling at the date market, and making sure I was okay throughout. He was super knowledgeable and I felt very safe with him as a women solo traveller! He also got me to try a bunch of different things at the date market which I appreciated. He was super kind. Highly highly recommend the tour and especially Shafi.

  • 5Half day tour

    Shari was an excellent tour guide, polite and full of knowledge about the places that we were visiting. The half day tour worth it if you have a stopover in Abu Dhabi and at least you can see the main things .

  • 5Great half day tour

    In September heat you don’t want to be outside for too long. Our tour vehicle was comfortable with good air conditioning. Our guide, Shafi was very knowledgeable and repeated many parts of the information to make sure we had understood. He told us enroute what objects we would see and then pointed out the various objects once we arrived at the destination. The mosque was amazing and we probably would not have taken ourselves there independently. I had a head scarf and my shoulders covered but females need their arms fully covered. Luckily Shafi had a gown for me to wear. We highly recommend this tour to see the highlights and learn some of the history.

About Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi, the island capital of the United Arab Emirates, pairs a dazzling grand mosque and landmark museums with mangroves, beaches and desert.

The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, with its white marble domes, floral inlay and vast courtyard, is one of the most beautiful buildings in the region and glows softly after dark. Nearby, Qasr Al Watan opens the grand halls of the presidential palace to visitors, and Qasr Al Hosn, the city's oldest stone building, tells the story of the emirate's beginnings.
