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. Experience the dining options at the Marina Mall. You will get the time to enjoy lunch (at your own expense) here. If you prefer dining at a local restaurant, you will get the option for that as well. 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.

It was last trip of my whole vacation in emirates and it could not end better. I have enjoyed whole day. Our guide Mohammad Iqbal shared valuable information from history and culture as well as fun facts. I was impressed with the beauty of Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and as promised by Iqbal I sure was even more impressed with presidential palace. We have arrived fairly early to the Mosque, so there weren't many other tourists and it was very enjoyable to take some photos there. I even have photo with reflection of the main entrance and Mosque towers on white marble - and without tourists. I found it very well organised for such a pictures. Also at the palace it was easy to taky stunning pictures. Iqbal was very helpful, sincerely caring for our wellbeing and helping with photos. Also recommending best places to take photos. And Etihad Towers - far better than View at the Palm and Burj Khalifa, believe me, try it. :-)

We really enjoyed the sites and photo stops that were included in the tour. The drive from Dubai to Abu Dhabi wasn't bad at all and there's lots to see along the way. I appreciate the care our driver took in transporting us. The guide was engaging and always willing to take photos of us whenever we asked, and we asked alot, as did the other 6 people on the tour with us. My only concern is that when were dropped off at the hotel 9 hrs later, I gave a generous tip to the guide and said it was for both him and the driver to split 50/50. I didn't have small denominations in AED. He put it in his pocket & said he would share it with the driver. Did he do that? I have no idea but I hope he's an honest person and did ask requested.

Our tour guide Robert was fantastic. He was helpful at all times and provided us with a lot of interesting information about Dubai and Abu Dhabi. We had booked the full-day Abu Dhabi tour and I can highly recommend it. Our driver also took us everywhere safely. Thanks for this experience. :-)
