Full description
With its natural islands, premium resorts, cultural attractions, and architectural wonders, Abu Dhabi offers something for every traveler. Brace up to explore the most-iconic attractions of Abu Dhabi on a full-day sightseeing tour from Dubai! Start your day after being picked up from your hotel in Dubai and learn about one of the richest cities in the world as you travel along the Persian Gulf. Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, the largest mosque in the UAE, 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. A drive along the Abu Dhabi Corniche offers you a beautiful view of the Persian Gulf, its turquoise blue waters, and the skylines. Then, the Etihad towers, a striking architectural landmark on the Abu Dhabi Corniche, offer dining, stay, and entertaining options in one location. The breathtaking panoramic views of the city, including the view of Emirates Palace, and the Arabian Gulf from the observation deck enchants anyone who comes there. You will get the time to enjoy lunch (at your own expense) at the mosque. Touring around the Qasr Al Watan, a functioning presidential palace and a cultural place in Abu Dhabi, lets you learn more about the tradition that has defined the history of the UAE. The palace is also an architectural marvel and houses artifacts and treasures. After a full day of fun and sightseeing, enjoy a ride back to your hotel, where we’ll drop you off safely.

Elyasin – FranceNovember 26, 2023 – Verified booking
My visit to Abu Dhabi was an unforgettable experience, greatly enriched by our guide, Hamza. His extensive knowledge of the city and attention to detail made this day truly special. Hamza not only provided quality service but also ensured that every aspect of our tour was perfect. We explored the magnificent Abu Dhabi Mosque, an architectural masterpiece, where Hamza shared fascinating facts and anecdotes that have enriched our understanding of this sacred place. The climb to the top of the Etihad Tower was another highlight, offering breathtaking views of the city, thanks to Hamza's knowledge and expertise. Visiting the Presidential Palace was the icing on the cake. Thanks to Hamza, we discovered the secrets and stories behind this iconic place, which made our experience even more memorable. I highly recommend Hamza to anyone visiting Abu Dhabi.

The tour guide was excellent and very informative. I definitely learned a lot about the history of the UAE and specifically more about Dubai and Abu Dhabi. However, the group was rather large and took a long time to pick everyone up and do each activity. I would have preferred to see more than just 3 places and would have liked to at least stop by more places. There are so many fun activities to do in Abu Dhabi and it would have been nice to do some of those such as see the new aquarium and go by Ferrari World.
