Fascinating - It was breathtaking and fascinating to see these wonderful objects. Our guide was extremely polite and very funny. Time has passed very quickly with him, as he took great care of us. We were amazed that he had so much knowledge at such a young age of 24. All in all, we are more than satisfied with the program.
His name was Shamnad Noushad.

Wonderful experience - For today I had booked a tour to Abu Dhabi to visit the Sheikh Zayed Mosque and the BAPS Mandir. Mr Zain was our guide and he did a great job : felt comfortable with him and he could tell a lot about Dubai/Abu Dhabi. Will recommend him for sure in my circle and will book a tour with him for sure.
