Excellent half day tour of Abu Dhabi - This tour is an excellent orientation to Abu Dhabi with a tour of some key attractions with a guide who provides live interactive commentary. The pickup and drop off point is your hotel in Abu Dhabi city. You get to see quite a bit of the city center as other tour participants are picked up and on the way to the Grand Mosque - the first stop on the tour. The mosque is the meeting point for everyone on the tour cWith 90 minutes to tour the mosque, the guide provides excellent information and orientation including tips for meeting the dress code to enter the mosque. In certain cases participants were provided appropriate coverings to ensure the rules were followed. The mosque is massive and the guide led everyone very efficiently through the screening to the key areas while providing interesting information along the way. At the conclusion of the tour to the mosque, everyone boarded the bus for the remainder of the tour. With certain drive by points and stops at the heritage center and date market one gets a feel for life and ways of old Abu Dhabi. It’s a tour just long enough and yet to the point in terms of time commitment and correct amount of information. Highly recommend primarily because it’s so well arranged and managed.

Excellent experience - We took the half day Abu Dhabi tour, we enjoyed it and would recommend it to future travellers. Our tour guide was Mirsa, he was friendly and very knowledgeable, we received a lot of interesting information about UAE, Abu Dhabi and each attraction. As part of the tour we went to the Grand Mosque, special outfits and headwear were provided to the females as part of the tour. We are very happy with the tour and Mirsa. Thank you Gosia & Arek (Australia)

Excellent tour agency - We hired Emirates Tours & Safari for a day trip during three of our events, and the organization was absolutely flawless. The itinerary was well thought out, the places we visited were breathtaking, and most importantly, our clients were extremely happy with the experience. A special thanks to Dijin, Manuela, Lateef, Aslam, and John – they were incredibly professional, attentive, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Their dedication and warm hospitality truly made a difference. We highly recommend Emirates Tours & Safari for any group looking for a memorable and perfectly organized experience in the UAE.

A fantastic tour, highly recommended ***** - We had a fantastic morning with Manuela and her driver. Pick up was exactly as arranged. Manuela was very knowledgeable and shared lots of interesting information and facts with us throughout, spoke fluently in English and German. For us, the highlight of our tour was definitely the visit to Sheikh Zayed Mosque. It was simply stunning. We had considered visiting independently by ourselves, but were so pleased that we didn’t … Manuela made our visit seamless. To summarise, we would highly recommend the tour *****

Terrible and unsatisfying, really poor guide - Munees was our guide for the half day Abu Dhabi city tour, we were only 5 in the group but received no information, feedback about any attractions, or any information of value that could have made the trip more memorable!! We were driven around without a word from our guide, dropped off at various attractions and had to find our own way around without our guide to guide and provide information, Munees’s English was very bad and he didn’t understand much of what the group was saying, he could not communicate with the group. It was a complete waste of time and we could have gotten more value if we did the tour by ourselves, Munees was of no assistance, really a bad experience
