About this activity
Get ready to discover the best that Abu Dhabi has to offer with the help of a local guide. After being picked up at your hotel, you’ll travel by air conditioned private car to the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Along the way, we’ll see a lot of new development happing on the outskirts of Dubai where the government is getting ready for Expo 2020. Our first stop on your private tour will be Sheikh

Zayed Grand Mosque, the main place of worship in the city, which can accommodate up to 42,000 worshippers. This ornate mosque is a piece of art and a masterpiece of Islamic architecture. Note that since this is a functional place of worship, women will need to be covered head-to-toe with long pants, long sleeves, and a headscarf, and men will have to wear long pants. Visiting the mosque will give you the opportunity to learn about the main religion of the UAE.

Next, we’ll stop to admire those world famous mega skyscrapers and take some photos of the skyline and of the stunning Emirates Palace Hotel. Feeling peckish yet? There will be an opportunity to stop for lunch ( this will be at your own expense at the marina mall, your guide will be able to give you some food recommendations, depending on what you fancy).

After lunch, we’ll drive to the cultural district of Abu Dhabi’s Saadiyat Island, home to the largest art museum in the Middle East, the Louvre Abu Dhabi. We’ll wander around the exhibits and make a beeline for anything that takes your fancy, this your tour after all.

Before we leave Abu Dhabi we’ll hop over to Yas Island, a natural islet featuring several popular attractions, including Yas Waterwold, Ferrari World and Yas Marina circuit which is home to the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Grand Prix. We will then drive back to Dubai where we wil drop you off at your accommodation. Before you go, don’t forget to ask your expert local guide for tips on what else to see and do during your stay in the city
