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.
(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.
(Photo Stop) - The design of the building is a playful mix of cherished Islamic architectural elements such as balance, geometry, proportions, rhythm and hierarchical emphasis to create a unified whole. The inspired grand dome with elaborate geometrical patterns dominates over 114 smaller domes spread over the building. The color of the building aims to reflect different shades of sands found in the Arabian Desert.
(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 8km 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.
(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 metres (260,000 sq ft) in size, with 8,000 square metres (86,000 sq ft) of galleries, making it the largest art museum in the Arabian peninsula.
(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.

Jabed Monju was an exceptional guide and driver. He was very patient and pleasant with our family of four. He took us to all the stops during our half day tour and explained everything on the way. He was also our photographer at the stops. We really enjoyed our time with him and would definitely recommend him to others. Thank you Jabed for giving us great memories in Abu Dhabi. We will be back!
We had a wonderful half-day tour from Dubai to Abu Dhabi with Ali, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! Ali was incredibly friendly, cheerful, and welcoming. He explained the history and background of every place we visited in such an interesting and informative way. His knowledge, professionalism, and positive attitude made our tour truly special. My husband and I enjoyed every moment and were extremely happy with the experience. We would absolutely love to take another tour with Ali on our next visit to Dubai! Thank you, Ali, for your kindness and for making our trip so memorable. You were an excellent guide, and we highly recommend you to anyone looking for a fantastic tour experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ali has been very helpful and educated us about the tour. Answered all our questions and queries.
Amazing tour guide Nameed, good day
I had the best tour with Nadeem! It was very comfortable ride, he helped us take photos and the pickup/drop off was on time. Definitely recommend this tour guide.
Nadem was a very friendly and patient tour guide. Very informative about the Dubai and Abu Dhabi area. Really enjoyed
Excellent experience with ample Iconic moments!
An excellent experience because of our guide. He truly was the most
This was a phenomenal experience. Nadem was truly patient with our group of all ages from 40 -75+. He showed us the various sites and was patient when we wanted to make detours. He was also knowledgeable on history and unique facts.
A great informative experience in a clean and comfortable air conditioned car. Our driver Pasha was professional and friendly and was happy to answer all our questions and share interesting information about UAE. We were provided with several bottles of water along the way. We were asked how long we wanted at each stop…so we could tailor the experience to our liking. A fantastic trip to get a snapshot of Abu Dhabi.
Zohaib is patient and flexible with the tour. Took care of us.
Zohaib. Good experience. Everything was on time and good
Clean safe vehicle, comfortable ride. Skip the headphones at the mosque. Ensure you're fully covered, especially women. It's gorgeous and you can easily navigate.
My wife and I traveled with Allah Ho Akber, the ultimate gentleman and very knowledgeable. He was very flexible with times and stops etc.
Jaiswal was a great guide. The mosque and palace are awesome. Convenient way to see highlights of Abu Dhabi if you are staying in Dubai
Our ship got into port a little late, but the driver was there to meet us for our trip to Abu Dhabi. His English was difficult to understand and he drove a little fast, maybe to make up for our late departure. Abu Dhabi was beautiful and we loved what we saw, though the driver gave us little information about the city and country. When we went to a souk, he steered us to a Dubai chocolate store where we ended up being charged $450 instead of $45 and our friends were charged $350 instead of $35. We were warned later that sometimes dishonest merchants would add a zero to the end of the charge. The driver offered to take many pictures of us and was very pleasant, but being taken to dishonest merchants kind of tainted the day for us. We felt as if we had a driver rather than a tour guide.
Very good experience ❤️ Our driver/guide was super nice and told a lot of stories about Dubai and Abu Dhabi 👌🏻 It would be nice to have more time in Mosque 🕌, but over all it was really good experience ❤️
Excellent half day tour with Jaiswal who took us from Dubai to Abu Dhabi. We deliberately chose a half day tour and Jaiswal ensured we saw all the main sights while respecting our timelines. He was very punctual, car was lovely and clean, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing trip to Abu Dhabi from Dubai, and a huge part of that was thanks to our driver, Ali. From the very beginning, Ali was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the entire journey smooth and comfortable. Ali shared interesting facts and local insights along the way, answered all our questions. The car was spotless and the drive felt very safe and relaxed.
It was nice to step out of Dubai to visit Abu Dhabi. It is a nice short day trip if you are traveling with a toddler. Our guide Ali was very knowledgeable, informative and went above and beyond. I would recommend him to anyone who wants good first hand knowledge of Abu Dhabi and the UAE. And have a great trip.
Nazkad was wonderful! We had a great time on this tour! Took time to make sure we all got what we wanted out of the tour! Highly recommend!
If you are looking for a half day tour to visit the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Center and opportunities for quick stops to some iconic Abu Dhabi attractions, this is the one for you. Our guide Jaiswal arrived on time in a clean comfortable car and we had a pleasant trip. He explained various titbits along the ways and even took pictures of us at different locations. Overall it is a good half day tour if that’s the amount of time you have.
We booked a tour with viator for half day visit Abu Dhabi. Our guide Jaiswal was super nice and funny. He took photos of our group, was on time, presented monuments, explained history…. We visited the Mosque, and stopped to other attractions. I recommand! The big car was confortable. Thank you ! Maéva and friends
Our guide Jaiswal was kind and nice. He explained Abu Dhabi and Emirates Palace. He’s also a great photographer. As we didn't take much time to travel around Abu Dhabi so we opted for this half-day tour.

I love it! I went to Abu Dhabi with my Jabed (driver) and he was wonderful, brought us to all the places that was included in the package and more. Told us what everything was and helped to where to go. I highly recommend him and the Desert Thrill if you want to go half day to Abu Dhabi and enjoy the rest of the afternoon back in Dubai! Price is good. Safe driving. Nice views. Best for couples, family, friends and solo trips.
We had an amazing experience with Jaiswal ! He was on time, very knowledgeable and gave us a great perspective on the history and development of Abu Dhabi! He was polite, provided water bottles and was respectful. The Grand Mosque tour was incredible and Jaiswal made sure we were aware of the restrictions! Especially allowed clothing rules. We had a great tour and experience in premium half day tour! Highly recommend.
The trip was planned at the last minute but turned out excellent. Guide, Mr. Jaiswal was punctual, knowledgeable and very caring. He took us through all the spots as described in the iterinary and explained the historical background and significance. He ensured that we got to visit and see all the places accommodating our needs as seniors.
Our guide Jaiswal was friendly and knowledgeable and made the trip fun, taking lovely pictures for us at each photostop. He even made a quick stop at a dried fruit and chocolate shop where I bought delicious dates and chocolates. Such a nice little touch to an already great day!

Jaiswal was an amazing and fun tour guide - picking us up in Dubai on time with very clear communication. He stopped according to the tour description photo stops and took wonderful photos for us along the way, and provided much information to us also — the history of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, the government structure and more. We had so much fun in a short amount of time! Thank you!
Amazing tour. Jaiswal was a great guide and gave information on every site we visited. We will be sharing pictures with the entire family. Definitely recommend!
It was an amazing experience, very well organised tour. Our tour guide - Shahid was great. He looked after us well and provided us with a lot of information about Abu Dhabi in terms of culture and history. We never felt rushed for time, we were given enough time for photos and breaks. Would highly recommend.
Javid was very helpful, polite and prompt. He was personable and offered information about the various locations during the tour. I would definitely recommend this experience for anyone visiting Dubai.
Our guide Jaiswal was amazing and very knowledgeable! It was a great trip, and we spent a perfect amount of time at each spot
Very nice half day tour of Abu Dhabi, where we could visit the Great Mosque, Etihad Towers, Emirates Palace, The Corniche, Louvre, Ferrari World and a great recommendation for a lunch stop in a local traditional restaurant with amazing food. Our guide and driver Jaiswal was very professional and friendly, I totally recommend everything. Thank you!
It was a great day with our tour guide Jaiswal. He picked us up at our hotel in an air-conditioned bus and explained a lot during the trip to Abu Dhabi. We saw all the important sights during the half-day trip. Everything was well organised and we can highly recommend that trip. Thank you very much, Jaiswal.
