Good day packed with sightseeing to get a really good impression of the city. I would just skip the fruits and dates market.

Awesome tour guide and tour to Abu Dhabi. Our guide was very informative and provided great information as we made out way to Abu Dhabi. He was very kind and patient with everyone on the tour. He made it a point to check throughout the day to see that everyone was good and provided water. He also took Awesome pics of us. I would recommend this tour as Abu Dhabi is a nice place to check out.
Visit to the Grand Mosque. But the local partner tour operator provided a very old vehicle. Even Lunch was not prearranged with the Restaurant. However the Best part was the Lunch at the Indian/Pakistani restaurant Lal Quila. Wish tour should have included a visit /tour at the Presidential Palace in Abu Dhabi.
I booked this private day tour to Abu Dhabi from Dubai with Daytur. The tour guide and the wheelchair pushers were on time at the hotel. They were all very knowledgeable. I had booked the wheelchairs for my aged parents. We covered the beautiful sheikh Zayed grand mosque, heritage village, Emirates palace from outside, the corniche, and Ferrari world external. Lunch was booked at Lal Qila. Buffet was available there and the food was amazing. There was an amazing variety available to choose from. The booking and communication was very swift and flawless. I would definitely book with them again. Thank you for all the help.
The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Was Amazing To See in Person With My Group And A Must See IN Abu Dhabi
I enjoyed the trip with my family it was amazing experience. Guide was knowledgeable also food was delicious. Enjoyed a alot.Highly recommended.
When we booked this trip we asked for an English guide, not Spanish, so we got both; not what we wanted. I was directed to a shop for a hijab which was provided for free. Guide misled us! Lunch was ok, too bad the good was cold!!
Mr Asad is a excellent and very informative patient friendly tour guide. He have a great personality. The vehicle was big roomy clean AC SUV.
The tour guide - S. Asad Awan arrived on time for pick up and was very professional. The Mosque was nice to see and the buffet lunch was good. Louvre Museum was closed, so we didn’t get to see inside. The shopping was average and so was the tour, just average. Our group decided to skip the last stop and just go back to Dubai.
Beautiful structure. But you would need to walk for three four KM to cover all the area and Going in & Out.
Fascinating city...tour is just the appetizer to what can be done. Good if only a day trip is the plan
<p>Incredible tour. You really do pack in a lot in this day trip so make sure you are full of energy. One thing to make sure is that ladies are dressed appropriately if you want to visit inside the mosque you have to be completely covered. But it is totally worth your while!!!</p>
<p>Great day to Abu Dhabi. I was picked up at the hotel as pre-arranged. The guide was informative, and particularly enjoyed seeing the mosque. The bus was a bit rickety. And even though the guide gave the tour in English, I don't believe the other guests on the bus spoke English as their first language. As a result questions were directed to the guide and answered in their native tongue. I did miss out on any questions or answers that were given.</p>
<p>Excellent architecture and tour guide. The pickup from the hotel was prompt. Lunch was good for me, but Indian food might not be to everyone's tastes.</p>
<p>Our tour to Abu Dhabi and the lunch was absolutely beautiful and delicious. The tour guide was very nice and informative, although I must say the rest of the stops were very quick, we were only able to get off the bus, take a picture and get back on. This was not a tour to see other area as of AD.</p>
We were picked up via a mini-van from our hotel bang on time and transferred to a coach for the remainder of the tour into Abu Dhabi. This was comfortable and water was readily available. Our guide Mohammed Adnan proved to be thoroughly knowledgeable and gave us an in-depth insight into Abu Dhabi, the UAE as a whole and its history and culture. He made the whole tour that much more enjoyable. The highlight of the tour was the trip to the Sheikh Zayed mosque. Although not old, it's a beautiful place to see and the scale is truly impressive. It does however get extremely busy. Make sure ladies take suitable headcovering, together with long sleeves and trousers. My other half was singled out for having a head covering that was too "see-through" (it wasn't). She had to borrow an additional covering from the bus. Gentlemen can simply get by with long trousers. The other elements of the trip were interesting, although perhaps slightly underwhelming. The heritage centre where lunch was provided was simply ok, although the buffet lunch was good. The adjacent beach does however provide for good photo opportunities of the city. I was a little disappointed that we couldn't actually enter the Emirates Palace, only view it from the outside. This was explained by Emirati royalty currently being in residence. I guess we were just unlucky in that respect. I'm not sure Ferrari World is worth the visit if you are only going to view it from the foyer. Full entrance is not included in the price (although that was expected). Overall, however it was a day well spent, if you take the time to listen to the guide, ask questions and want to quickly get a taster of what Abu Dhabi has to offer. It's a much quieter place than Dubai and perhaps more refreshing in that respect.
<p>Wonderful trip. However, except for the mosque the other stops were a bit underwhelming. The traffic in and out of Dubai was terrible resulting in a late pickup. In fact, we got off at the first drop off and took the Metro since the bus was going to stop at the Dubai Mall before dropping off at the hotels. Try not to book on Thursday since Friday begins their weekend and the traffic into Dubai is very heavy</p>
<p>The tour of Abu Dhabi and the visit of Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque was a great experience and had we been on the main bus for the whole tour the rating would have been higher.</p> <p>The reason for the lower rating is do to the driver of a secondary bus we had to take at the end of the tour as we were not staying at a centrally located hotel. The driver was very erratic and appeared to have to thought of his passengers. There were times we thought we were not going to make it back to our hotel.</p> <p>I would recommend this but be wary if you are not staying in a centrally located hotel.</p>
<p>The sights were very good. The tour information said that lunch was included, but we had to pay for it. The food was good.</p>
<p>I would recommend, recommend this tour!! Mohammed was awesome!! The mosque is so beautiful and when you leave, you will feel at ease. I never had eaten a date before and the food was absolutely delicious. I would do this tour again with friends and family for sure. I had a great time. The gallery has such beautiful rugs. The buildings are beautiful as well!</p>
<p>The Sheikh zayed mosque is just as beautiful and grand as it is on photos and definitely the highlight of the trip! Personally I would like to spend more time at the mosque.</p>
Excellent excursion to the Mosque, with the accompaniment of Guide Abdul who in perfect Spanish answered all the questions we asked him
Asad communicated well, showed almost everything in Abu Dhabi and is worth the tour with him Guided tour of the tourist sites of this country
Everything was perfect and well organized from start to finish special mention to the guide FAIZ who is an exceptional person I highly recommend and go with your eyes closed
