We had a wonderful packed day. We had never been to Abu Dhabi and only had 3 days to explore. The itinerary was ambitious but our guide was able to keep us on track. We were given the flexibility to change some things if we wanted to spend more or less time at one of the stops. He provided water, time for lunch and a unique perspective on the real daily lives of the people living there. He provided water which we really appreciated. He opened the doors for us and really made us feel welcome. He also answered the dozens of questions we had being very knowledgeable about the history, architecture and tolerances in the beautiful city.

Noufal did a great job of showing us the best of Abu Dhabi. He was very kind and patient with us. We were very impressed that he had outfits for the women to wear when going to the Sheik Zayed Grand Mosque. The women thought they had appropriate attire, but unfortunately their clothes didn’t cover wrists and ankles. If Noufal didn’t have the appropriate cover for the women, we all would’ve had to turn back after walking a long way to the entrance as many others did. I highly recommend this tour!

Our driver Shijar was very friendly and looked after us for the entire day. We were driven in comfort with plenty of bottles of water provided to us during the day. We got to see the beautiful Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, the Heritage Village, Sheikh Zayed Memorial, the Louvre, the Gold Souk, the Emirates Palace and the Dates Market. We had a wonderful day and I would recommend this trip.

We booked a customized version of this trip and our driver and guide, Shijar, made it an unforgettable experience. He was very knowledgeable and ensured that my elderly parents who were travelling with us were well taken care of. We visited all the top sites and learned about the city and its attractions. The Mosque is a place you definitely do not want to miss. I would definitely recommend Riyago Tourism and would ask for Shijar to be your guide when visiting.

We had an amazing tour in Abu Dhabi with Noushad. He was very informative, explained things to us throughout our tour, and we were not rushed at all. It was truly a day well spent exploring Abu Dhabi's top attractions. He also captured some beautiful family pictures which we will cherish forever. We would definitely choose again for our next tour and recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Abu Dhabi

We had a truly excellent tour with Noushad today. We booked late the day before and needed to change the pick up place, no problem. We then wanted to change the itinerary to add and delete various destinations, no problem. It was a day completely customized to our wants and taste. Noushad was very accommodating and informative. Our 8 hour tour ended up being 10 hours so we could take our time at several locations. Last but not least, he has an excellent eye for photography. I am most happy that we ended up with great pictures of our visit instead of just a bunch of awkward selfies that I normally do. Highly recommend!

I wanted to start my review by providing the contact information of our driver/guide, Noufi +97154 340 5434 because he really deserved to be recommended by us. The 8-hours tour turned into 10 hours and Noufi still wanted to show us more to make sure we have the best experience in Abu Dhabi. He made sure we toured all the advertised landmarks (8-hour) at our own pace. He had provided clothing to our female travelers to meet the mosque dress codes. He took us to his own hidden locations to have fantastic views of these landmarks with little to no other tourists. In addition, he offered his service to take our photos with his new phone camera and immediately sent them to us. I was impressed by his photos and "professional" skills. Always happy and smiling throughout the outing. I told him about my searching of an Indian dessert, Falooda, over the many decades, including 2 trips to India. He took us to this small Indian dessert place established in 1999, and WOW I finally tasted the best Falooda since I could remember! He was very knowledgeable and provided historical information as he drove us around. He wanted to show us the fish market to taste the local fish soup, but WE (not Noufi after 10 hours) ran out of time. He was probably the best local and willing day tour guide that I have experienced over the 30+ years of traveling. He really made this 1-day Abu Dhabi tour a very good day and experience for us. Highly recommend his service.

Mr. Shafeek was incredibly accommodating! We only had a few hours in Abu Dhabi and he managed to squeeze in many sights for a memorable day. Thanks to him to picking us up on time and taking us back to the helipad on time as well!
