A well organized tour and the tour guide was very knowledgeable about the buildings we visited. Travelling as a solo female, felt very safe on the tour.

Our guide was informative but not overbearing, he took us to all the sites and was always offering us water, which was a blessing with the scorching temperatures. Offered choices for lunch and got us back in plenty of time.

It was my first time to Abu Dhabi. This trip is a must. The guide was amazing, very friendly, knowledgeable and happy to take pictures. The tour covered three main attractions and all of them were awesome. I especially liked that each visit was not rushed and we had enough time for a lunch break. I thoroughly recommend this trip.

When booking this tour, my main objective was to see the Grand Mosque. Everything else was additional. I am so glad that me and my family went ahead with this tour. It was exactly what we needed for a quick stay in Abu Dhabi.
Our tour guide, Yosef, was the best. He was very clear and attentive to everyone. Very friendly and knowledgeable. 10/10 for Yosef.
The mosque and the royal palace were both beautiful. Although we only spent a short amount at the observation floor in the Etihad Tower it was more than enough to see the amazing city. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Our Abu Dhabi City Tour was nothing short of exceptional, beginning with the stunning Etihad Towers and continuing on to the grandeur of the Royal Palace and the majestic beauty of the Sheikh Zayed Mosque. Our guide, Mostafa, was a cherry on top of the cake, showcasing his knowledge and passion for the region while also offering flexibility for us to explore at our own pace. The tour was flawlessly organized, with smooth pick-ups and drop-offs, making it a truly perfect experience.

The grand mosque, it was not only beautiful but interesting.
I tried to call the local number given to me because we had been waiting for a half hour, unfortunately there was no answer, our hotel concierge also tried to phone your company. I believe someone should have been available for assistance.
