Cultural Immersion - Abu Dhabi - Viator did it again, this tour was magnificent!!! A must do while in the city. Our tour guide was well versed and well prepared…he also did an excellent job explaining the dos and don’ts. We covered a lot of ground and the driver allowed time to see, taste and enjoy everything without feeling rushed. We LOVED all of it. The pictures are breath taking❤️

Excellent half day in Abu Dhabi! - We were lucky enough to have Mujahid as our guide for our half-day tour to Abu Dhabi from Dubai, and everything was perfect. Mujahid is very professional, punctual, friendly and passionate about his work. He explains the place clearly, answers all the questions and puts at ease. The organization was fluid and the program well balanced. Thanks to him, we discovered Abu Dhabi in the best conditions. I recommend Mujahid without hesitation!

Excellent way to learn about Abu Dhabi - We expected a great day to see the highlights of Abu Dhabi and received exactly that. Our guide/driver was excellent and extremely knowledgeable about Abu Dhabi and the UAE. We visited so many sites during the tour and learned so much about the city. Our guide was also very accommodating to include dropping us off at the Dubai Mall at the end of the tour at our request. We highly recommend this tour.

Excellent Tour - It was an excellent tour with guide Vicky Ali. He was very friendly and attentive to his guests. We had a few stations on the tour and we had enough time for exploring and to do some shopping. A very well organised tour!

Worth the money - I don't know if it was because we were running behind but I expected to be done by 2 or 3 at the latest. We did not return until 6 in the evening. The stops were well worth the money and interesting. There was a lot of drop off and pick up. So you have plenty of time to explore. Ferrari world requires tickets. The mosque requires modest clothing and head covering for the females. The driver was knowledgeable and courteous. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour

Tour to sales events - Our guide was great, but the tour consisted mainly of stops for sales events. Souvenirs, carpets, fabrics, etc. At the date market, the doors were closed and tasted inside about dates, tea and spices and persuaded to buy. Slightly strange, despite really beautiful architecture, the visit to the mosque. Not for us, the dress regulations are one thing, but the other rules, the separation of women and men's areas and then mass handling. We were happy when we got out.
