Juanais, our driver and later to become our friend was fantastic. Juanais is very knowledgeable and passionate about Abu Dhabi, which made the tour extra special. The sites shown and duration of 6 hours is good.

Junais was great in providing us with a wonderful day in Abu Dhabi. He took us around, provided water, and even recommended/took us to a wonderful local restaurant. Because we wanted to spend a lot of time at the Louvre (so worth going), we ended up having more than 8 hours (closer to 10) which Junais was very kind to stay on for. Junais recommended going to Mosque around 9 AM, which was awesome because there weren't too many people, and the Museum and light show (optional) were basically private. The Louvre was definitely worth paying extra for. We spent time there. The Qasr Al-Watan (Presidential Palace) was stunning, and then Junais was kind enough to take us to the best hotel in town for photos (Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental Hotel) in the evening for pictures. Everywhere we went to was impressive, and we could see each site at our own pace. He also offered to take pictures of us. Thanks again!
Ameer Thiyyattil gave me a private 4hr Abu Dhabi tour, and it was absolutely incredible! His knowledge, friendliness, and attention to detail made it a truly personalized and unforgettable experience.
Very good experience in mosque. Ansar Is an excellent man. Explained everything very patiently. Good driving skills.
Today’s tour was a great way to see the main sites in Abu Dhabi. This is my first trip in the Middle East and came as a solo woman. Answer was not only knowledgeable of the sites but also answered all my questions about cultural norms, history of the city, and souvenir options for my family. Highly recommend
Musthafa at ABUDHABI TOURS made our tour absolutely amazing. Not only were the sights beautiful, but his knowledge and interesting facts and stories brought the whole journey to life in an extraordinary way. We are definitely coming back and will book more tours with Musthafa!!!!
A great day in Abu Dhabi! In only 8 hours, we discovered many incredible places. And Ansar was great, very friendly and prompt.
We booked this tour as we wanted an overview of main sights of Abu Dhabi city. Even so it’s quite a packed itinerary. We really enjoyed the tour made especially good by our guide Ansar. He had lot of info about the various places and drove well. We visited & toured the Grand Mosque, walk around Emirates palace Hotel, and Heritage village. Did a drive past the Corniche, Qasr Al Watan, Etihad Towers, Louvre. Finished with a visit to date market for a little shopping. Would recommend if you’re short on time. Would likely need 2-4 hours more if you want more in depth walking & visiting of the places we drove past.
I had a perfect day trip with my guide Khalid. We saw the mosque and palace, with a unique post apocalyptic theme park as a bathroom stop on the way. For lunch we went to an all you can eat buffet. There were essentially unlimited bottles of water in the car, and Khalid was able to improvise for me to see the Mandir as well. Khalid did well with improvising the trip to accommodate any last requests, however be sure to tell him whatever you want as soon as possible because I had to cancel some things I wanted to see because of rush hour traffic. Still an amazing day trip. Really nice experience. Don’t be shy either about asking to stop for milkshakes or fresh juices on the way to stay hydrated! Khalid is also good at taking pictures of you so dress well for the occasion!
Ansar was very helpful with a city tour that we went for. He was very knowledgeable and his recommendations were spot on. Would highly recommend him. Thanks Ansar !
Brilliant experience. We did the 4 hour layover tour around Abu Dhabi with Musthafa. The highlight was, of course, seeing the Grand Mosque. It was absolutely beautiful.
We had an absolutely great time on the tour today. Ansar was a fantastic tour guide. Really professional and friendly. We booked this tour because we had a 11 hour wait between our flights and it worked out perfectly. We happily encourage others to take the tour with Ansar. Jane and Harry NZ
Mustafa is highly intelligent and very professional. Absolutely on time pick up and took us everywhere accordingly to itinerary made . Absolutely recommend to everyone , You went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy — we couldn’t have asked for a better guide!”
Musthafa was a great guide. He showed up on time, took me to all places agreed upon and provided interesting descriptions of them. The experience was entertaining, funny and better than expected. I surely would call Musthafa again!
I came for an exam in Abu Dhabi and had little time to arrange for sight seeing. Nevertheless, I did manage to find this private tour post-exam. The driver Rahim, was very friendly and gave a glimpse of the city and told about its origins. We went to the Louvre, Abu Dhabi and the paintings and the sculptures mesmerized me. As I didn’t take guided tour, it took me almost 2.5 hours to traverse through all the 12 chambers. After that we went through the Dates market and amazed by the different varieties of it, followed by Emirates Palace, Qasr Al Watan and Corniche. Due to my bad luck, there was a very bad traffic due to Trump visit, so could not visit Ferrari World but managed to visit the iconic structure of Abu Dhabi- Sheik Zayed Golden Mosque. It is such a gorgeous structure with a beautiful aura around it. It boasts of largest handmade carpet in the world adorned by unique chandeliers. Overall, it was a wonderful trip and the driver was very cooperative throughout the trip. Only thing that needs to be aware of is checking any official visits by any head of state as it may affect your travel itinerary due to traffic congestion. Also, I request the travel operators to specify the drop off location in the website beforehand.
Great way to see all the sites in one day. Highly recommend. Our tour guide was fantastic and very knowledgeable about the history of the Emirates. Having our tour guide parked and ready to go after visiting each site saved so much time. Would never have been able to visit all the places in one day on our own.
Me and my husband had a free day today. All of the suggestions made by Ahmed Shabbir were phenomenal. He happily showed us some amazing sites and patiently explained and gave us maximum time at each. My husband and I had a world class day with him that we will never forget!
Awesome tour. Our tour guide took us everywhere and gave us the option to add on as we go. Definitely would use them again.
