Additional Information
Your tour experience hinges on your guide. Naturally, you’d love to explore the sights - something I, as your host, will facilitate - but it’s even more precious to attach a story to those views. Too many guides just perform a script like automated DJs, which is a pitfall I avoid. I, Ebrahim, am the unique factor in your tour. As a proud citizen of Abu Dhabi and the United Arab Emirates, I don’t take my role as a culture-sharer lightly. When you’re with me, you’re both a sightseer and someone keen to delve into our nation’s culture. My regular, well-compensated job allows me to conduct these tours on my own time, so don’t fret about me being driven by financial motives. I’d rather enrich your experience without a fee than provide a subpar service with a price tag. I won’t cut your tour short, meaning its length is flexible. Grab this golden chance!
- There will be a fair amount of walking however for those unable to do so, most attractions offer other means of transportation such as club cars.

Excellent! Professional and very knowledgeable. Must Book! - Ebrahim is very professional and knowledgeable. He is a proud citizen of Abu Dhabi and it reflects in his approach to the tour. He lives in Abu Dhabi and is very familiar with the city, its history, culture, and sights. His car is new and very comfortable. He is very accommodating and will customize your tour experience if you wish. We completely customized our day with Ebrahim to fit our needs and he obliged by picking us up earlier to be able to fit in all the sights and experiences we requested.
Towards the end of the day, I mistakenly took my wife's heart medication believing them to be aspirin. Ebrahim immediately responded by taking us to a nearby hospital. He handled the emergency room procedures and stayed with me as the nurses and doctor attended to my situation. He communicated with my wife who was waiting outside several times, to calm and keep her informed. Everything turned out well, and I received great care in the emergency room. This scary situation turned out well thanks to Ebrahim's quick action and support. I am very grateful to him. With the doctor's assurance that I was fine, we left the hospital and finished our tour. Ebrahim went above and beyond his tour guide duties to ensure my safety and well being. By the end of the day (and it was a long one), I truly felt I had found a new friend in the UAE.
Please do yourself a favor when in Abu Dhabi and contact Ebrahim. He will make sure your time in the UAE is a memorable and rich experience to last a lifetime.
