Itinerary
Explore one of the world’s largest mosques on a half-day tour, the only mosque that captures unique interactions between Islam and world cultures. Sheikh Zayed's vision for the Grand Mosque was to incorporate architectural styles from different Muslim civilizations and celebrate cultural diversity by creating a haven that is truly diverse and inspirational in its foundation.
Emirates Palace is a world-famous hotel known for its enchanting Arabesque style, award-winning five-star hospitality and wonderfully unique and authentic local experiences. The hotel's main building stretches over one kilometre from wing to wing, with the gardens spread across 100 hectares. (Photo Stop will be provided)
(Photo Stop) - The towers are located opposite the Emirates Palace hotel and feature offices, apartments and a hotel. The towers were used as a filming location for the 2015 film Furious 7. In the film, Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) steal a Lykan HyperSport and drive it through three of the towers.
Qasr Al Watan, or Palace of the Nation, in Abu Dhabi, UAE was built to host dignitaries and leaders. The presidential palace was constructed between 2010 and 2017 with over one million square meters of intricate stonework and 22,000 cubic meters of Mughal-era style decorative elements. (Photo Stop)
This fascinating centre is home to an extensive collection of museum-like displays featuring unique Islamic art pieces sourced from around the Muslim world.
(Photo Stop) - The Corniche (or Corniche Road) is located in the city of Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. The Corniche Road spreads across an 8 km long stretch. It forms a sweeping curve on the western side of the main Abu Dhabi island and is replete with cycle paths, fountains and park areas
Meet Abu Dhabi’s Heritage Village, a family-friendly spot to experience the traditional way of life in the desert. The village is an immersive time capsule, with an old-world souk (market), mosque and camp modelled on life in pre-modern UAE.
(Photo Stop) - Ferrari World Abu Dhabi is a mostly indoors amusement park on YAS Island in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It is the first Ferrari-branded theme park and has the record for the largest space frame structure ever built. Formula Rossa, the world's fastest roller coaster, is also located here.
(Photo Stop) - The Louvre Abu Dhabi is an art and civilization museum, located in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The museum was inaugurated on 8 November 2017 by French President Emmanuel Macron and United Arab Emirates Vice President Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The museum is part of a thirty-year agreement between the city of Abu Dhabi and the French government. The museum is located on the Saadiyat Island Cultural District. It is approximately 24,000 square meters (260,000 sq ft) in size, with 8,000 square meters (86,000 sq ft) of galleries, making it the largest art museum in the Arabian peninsula.

Faizon was absolutely ah-mazing! Very professional, prompt and provided excellent service. Best service in Dubai that i have experienced. You deserve 5 gold stars!!
Disclaimer... I'm not a Karen or someone that likes to write bad reviews so this is not my usual MO. Our actual tour guide on the bus was very nice and compassionate to our situation. The operator of the tour was not. Very unpleasant day.... After being picked up 2 hours late (they said the driver had a possible accident in the morining) the operator Faizan Mirza kept saying he would be getting back to us with a new driver.. I had to call every 1/2 at least to get updates while he said he's working on it. I let him know we had dinner reservations for the evening at 6PM so asked if this would be an issue and he assured me that we'd be back in plenty of time. (probably so they could get their money from us) When a driver did show up, the ride to the another shuttle was hot and stuffy with little to no AC. We were dropped off to another driver which took us to another shuttle until we got on the final bus. The "Ferrari world photo stop" was nothing more than letting other people stop and get off and back on the road... Some of the "highlights were very misleading I belive especially the driveby photo oppurtunities which were miles away from the "driveby" The 2nd to last stop was the mosque which on our "5-7 hour trip" started at 5:45 pm which was already at 6 hours into our trip. So much for out dinner reservations. We were going to prepay for another excursion for the night, so I'm glad we chose not to do that bc we would have been out the money for it. It was nice to get past the crowds in lines in the mosque since we were on a tour. I called him back a couple of times about us missing our dinner reservations and all he could do is say cancel them. The only bright part of this situation was after expressing our dissappointment several times and not giving us an answer I asked if I should call the CC company to dispute the charges and he said finish the tour. After that he sent a couple messages and finally agreed to send a car to the last destination to pick us up and we skipped the temple tour. After skipping the last stop which was supposed to last 1 hour, we started back to Dubai.. We arrived at 8:30 PM which was 11 and 1/2 hours later than when we were supposed to start. If we took the last tour it would have been 12 1/2 to 13 hours of our day when we were prepared for a 5-7 hr day as which was stated. Tired, hungry and upset when we were dropped off. BAD DAY.
It was truly an eye opening trip. We most enjoyed the Sheikh Zayed mosque and the Emirates Palace which were both beyond impressive. Many thanks to our tour guide Mirza for doing his best to provide us a wonderful touring experience.
Most amazing trip I ever did! Our tour guide Mirza was the most knowledgeable person I have met. We learned more about the history of Dubai and Abu Dhabi in 1 day than I did the whole week. Wonderful guidance, tour and i formation. Thanks Mirza!
Our tour guide Mirza provided great information on our road trip to Abu Dhabi, we learned so much from him and was accommodating when we decided to end our trip early!
My Abu Dhabi tour was great until the driver made a stop on the way back to my hotel that ended up with my wife getting scam at a gallery for a piece of carpet.Remember if it’s not on the itinerary..Stay Away!!!
The mosque and Ferrari world were impressive. The overall trip was too long and the van was uncomfortable. The driver/guide however, was very good
We have a great day. Major Aleem was our tour guide. He is such a nice personality. 100% recommended🥰
The stories told by the driver made the tour worth while. He was kind and flexible in not stopping were we did not want to send time.
Very Joyful and informative Tour. We really had a good time with Faizan. He is well mannered, Informative Guide, Abudhabi tour is worth it Booking with Faizan, he has very deep knowledge about the country’s history and culture.
Very bad service, really bad service... Mr. Faizan is a bad guide and his friendliness is very bad. Tour car is old, bad driving and dangerous. Mr. Faizan, without any patience and in a bad mood, in the middle of our Tour (which we booked with the places we would most like to visit) he simply wanted to do it his way and that we went to other places that he thought were better.... for us not even think and said we wanted to go on the tour we had booked, and not free style as he wished. By the way, and even after we told him how we wanted it, he asked us again if we wanted to go to the traditional markets, to which we all said NO, but he still took us there, even though he told us that we didn't want to go see any of that or buy anything.. .. At the stops we made to see tourist attractions, most of the time we were the ones waiting for him, that is, instead of our booked guide being available and waiting for us, it was us - 4 adults and a child, that we were waiting for our guide, UNBELIEVABLE. There was a stop where we waited more than 25 minutes for him, he was gone..... On the way back from the tour towards Dubai, Mr. Faizan, instead of concentrating on the road and traffic, went to watch movies or YouTube on the phone he had hidden in his legs on the seat. A danger to our security. In summary, I do not recommend this gentleman to anyone, in addition to the price being quite expensive, the service is miserable and without any kind of quality or respect for tourists.
Very happy with the fantastic service. Had a fun filled tour, captured beautiful photos stress-free and hassle-free, my sincere gratitude and Kudos to Mr. Faizan Mirza for he is very accommodating, trustworthy, knowledgeable and respectful gentleman. Highly recommended! We will surely book with you again for our next tour.....
We would like to say a big THANK YOU To Faizan for making our trip to Dubai in Nov 22 so special! We originally had 2 pre-arranged trips booked (Abu Dhabi and Miracle Gardens/Global Village) but after our first meeting with Faizan we went on to arrange other things throughout the week (Dubai Frame, Gold Souk, Marina Dinner Cruise!). Prior to arriving in Dubai and throughout our stay, we communicated with Faizan via WhatsApp and can honestly say he is totally trustworthy and very knowledgeable and passionate about his country. We learned so much from him! What a lovely, respectful, trustworthy gentleman your are Faizan and we would certainly use your services again when in Dubai and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to others!
Great tour for getting to see lots of highlights and photo stops. Faizen was a great host and very flexible.
Views in Abu Dhabi Problem was no break for lunch or to have a drink. No water provided. Picked up over one hour late but tour was not extended by one hour. Visit to mosque was rushed and tour guide should have been with us like other groups
Another great experience with lots to see. This is one of the best tour guides we have and used him twice. I recommend his services, you won’t be disappointed.
Well we had multiple tours and trip with Faizan Mirza. He's very informative and knowledgeable person and knows history very deeply. Moreover he is very polite and kind throughout the tours and willing to help you always. Thanks Faizan Mirza. We'll Surely keep in touch and see you again on our next trip.
Abudhabi, rich heritage and culture. We enjoyed this trip too much. We had the knowledgeable guide Faizan Mirza. It would not have been possible for us to learn about the rich heritage and dynamic culture of the places we went to on our own. You explained everything beautiful and we came to know about various interesting things as tourists. We will always remember the great time we had on this vacation.
Great views at Abudhabi. We enjoyed this tour more because of Fiazan. As a tour guide, u were fantastic with the children. They are totally in love with u and are always talking about u. U have been more like a friend to them, which was a great thing.
I was visiting Dubai for work and really fancied a trip to Abu Dhabi At 1am on the Sunday, and after chasing, I found out I was the only booking. I then spent then next hour trying to sort things out. After a discussion I agreed to pay an extra 250 AED to make it a private tour, I was reassured that we would have a tour guide and not just a driver. I was also reassured I would be picked up at 10am and not any later. I was picked up at 10:30am The tour guide was bit a tour guide but just a driver, gave us no information at all whatsoever. Wouldn't recommend this company.
The driver was excellent Imran Ansari very patient and helpful transport was fine. Should include lunch
We went to Abu Dhabi . Driver was very polite and he explained very well every question. I recommend this tour 100%.
This tour was absolutely amazing ! Our tour guide made us feel so welcomed ! He informed us about everything on the way and explained every important building and sight in Abu Dhabi. I recommend this tour to anyone visiting for the first time . My husband and I couldn’t have been any happier ! Thank you!
Faizan did a great job driving us around and telling us stories and history of UAE. We are from New York City and had a high demands - but he handled it gracefully and carefully. We enjoyed it. Highly recommend. Tim and Raquel.
Best and very friendly driver faizan mizra will recommend to everyone for uae tours. He guide us very well .
We spent a wonderful day in abu dhabi with our guide Faizan who was able to make us discover beautiful places. I recommend this outing for families or even groups of friends. Merci Faizan🇫🇷
Fantastic tour and guide! Great experience indeed. Wonderful tour with Mirza. Complete comprehensive explanation of the history of EAU and it’s royalty. The Abu Dhabi mosque is the 3rd largest mosque in the world. I highly recommend this full day experience. The Architecture of the Abu Dhabi skyline and the palaces of the royals is beautiful. Take time to dip your toes in the Gulf.
We were 4 adults and 2 kids we had a private pick up and drop off greeted by Mr Faizan Mirza who has in dept knowledge of the city. •Grand Mosque •Louvre Abu Dhabi •Ferrari World Since we had kids travel with us we were concerned but Mr Faizan Mirza made us feel very comfortable also provided water and WiFi. We will definitely contact Mr Faizan whenever we plan to visit again.
I would highly recommend this tour to Abu Dhabi. Faizan is very knowledgable and friendly which made the tour so enjoyable. We also had WiFi in the vehicle which was a bonus. Faizan parked in the underground car park at the Grand Mosque which made it easier to access the entrance to the Mosque. This really was a memorable tour, don’t hesitate to book.
It was an amazing experience with very knowledgeable Captain Faizan Mirza. We Had Free Refreshing Drinks, Free WiFi. It is Suggested for everyone. Thanks Again to Mr. Faizan Mirza
