It was great - The places we went to was stunning. It was absolutely beautiful. The tour guys was amazing. I broke my phone by accident and he let me borrow his phone to take pictures and then he sent it to me. Not only he let me borrowed his phone but he was my personal photographer. He is well acknowledged of all of his surroundings and great knowledge. He was just great. The view on the tower was spectacular. I highly recommend it.

A great way to experience the main sights of Abu Dhabi - We had an absolutely outstanding tour with our guide, Johan. His knowledge was perfectly pitched—informative without ever feeling overwhelming—and his driving was smooth and professional throughout. Johan’s calm, reassuring manner made the entire day feel relaxed and effortless.
Despite encountering a few queues, we were still able to enjoy the full itinerary, including a wonderful view of the Louvre at the end of the tour.
We would highly recommend this experience, with huge thanks to Johan for making the day truly special for the six ladies in our group.

Great tour, great day with Ibrahim - I booked this tour las minute for my last day in Dubai, and it turned into a great experience.
Very conveniente since they pick you up at your hotel.
Ibrahim was fun and supportive and gave us a great tour.
They provide abayas for the visit to the Mosk, but If you want to take your own abaya I recommend you purchase it ahead at shops in old town shops at much better prices.

Great Tour for 1 day Abu dhabi visit - We had a great 1 day tour of Abu Dhabi. We were picked up from Abu Dhabi Hotel by a shuttle which took us to Etihad Tower where we met our guide A. Hasan. The view from Etihad observation deck was amazing. Then we got into the tour bus to visit the presidential palace. We were able to go inside the palace. Then we had a photo stop at louvre and then to Sheikh Zayed mosque & finally back to hotel. The total tour duration was about 7 hours. Every place we visited was mesmerizing. All entrance ticket was taken care of by the tour. Guide A. Hasan was knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. I had my infant son with me & he helped with loading unloading stroller into bus & he made sure we got priority seats & priority access to elevators & were first in every queue. All the places were stroller friendly and had baby changing rooms. The bus ride was comfortable. I will highly recommend the tour.

Great time as Fesal as our Tour Guide! - Had a great time with Fesal as our guide. He was super informative and we learned a lot during the tour. It was nice to get out of Dubai for a bit and explore some major landmarks of the capital. During this tour it made us realized how we wanted to come back to UAE and explore Abu Dhabi next. For people who are planning this tour it will take almost all day so be prepared!
