Lovely and patient Shan (tour guide) looked after us all. Everywhere we went we were like wow
The planning was great, on time and exactly as described. You get a brief overview of Abu dhabi and the palace and mosque are amazing. Our guide, Nomi, was fantastic, helpful, pleasant and very knowledgeable about the history and culture. Consider replacing the Louvre stop in the itinerary with something more interesting because it’s a nice architecture but nothing more as a stop.

Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, the largest mosque in the UAE and the third largest in the world is a place that is closely knit to the culture and religion of the UAE. You will see one-of-a-kind treasures while navigating the marbled halls, such as Swarovski chandeliers, patterned designs, and the largest hand-knotted carpet in the world.
