Private Tour: Abu Dhabi Full-day City Sightseeing With Transport From Dubai

It was a very informative trip. It was possible learn and see different facets of the city and understand a little bit about the culture.

Faisal took us from Dubai to Abu Dhabi on a private tour and gave my dad and I the best experience of our life. Faisal is full of knowledge and such a great guide if you are discovering a new place. Faisal has a lot of experience touring and can answer all your questions and gives great suggestions. Thank you Faisal for the best trip.

We spent an incredible day today visiting all the major sights to see in Abu Dhabi with our guide Faisal. Faisal was such a pleasure and gave us the full history of everything we saw and was so knowledgeable!! He answered all our questions and was a great and safe and careful driver. Such a wonderful and meaningful experience !!

This was one of the best trips to Abu Dhabi. Very professional, and well Inform guide. If you are ever in Du ai,and want to seethe best that Abu Dhabi has to offer,this is the trip for you. Whether si gle,couples, or family. This is one of the best Abu Dhabi trip that you can book in Dubai

This was to be one of our highlights to Abu Dhabi. We were picked up on time in a well worn mini van, for the 2 hour drive, with a stop at Ferrari world which a theme park, and was closed due to Ramadan. Our driver spoke very little English, and had his ear buds in the whole time so when he spoke, we were not sure if he was talking to us, or someone on his phone. He had no knowledge of local affairs, the history of the area, just drove. The visit to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, was well worth the visit. It is quite spectacular. That said, there were 2 cruise ships in port and we struggled with 2000 other guests to get the perfect photos. Our driver/guide had no clue as to how to navigate the crowd. We just blew past the Emirates Palace Hotel so am still looking for the photo. The Heritage Village museum is a 5 minute visit with the rest just tourist stuff. We enjoyed the Mosque. But the cost of the tour was high considering what we expect as value for money. The Mosque 5 stars. Everything else 2 stars.

A wonderful and all inclusive tour with Nemish and a driver. We were picked up at our hotel and expertly driven to Abu Dhabi with a history given by our guide of the area and the culture. The sites were great and we visited the Louve Museum as well. A great experience and one that I would recommend

Our guide, Saquib, made our tour well-worth the drive from Dubai. After picking us up at our Dubai hotel, Saquib used the 90 minute drive as an opportunity to explain UAE’s history, government structure, the different émérites, cultural protocols, agriculture, economy, and the differences between Abu Dhabi and Dubai (we asked). Our favorite stop was, not surprisingly, the Grand Mosque. Saquib timed our visits to the sites at hours when few visitors were present, which made our visit very special. He also explained the meaning of different structures and artwork. Even the outside marble is heat résistent to allow for daily prayers! Should you take this tour, women must wear long, non-see-through sleeves and pants. Women also must cover their heads. Should you come unprepared there are vendors outside of the mosque (in an internal mall) where you can purchase appropriate clothing. Men have more flexibility in dress, though they still need to dress conservatively (short sleeves and long shorts are fine, though most men wear pants).

The mosque is the highlight of the trip. Well worth a visit to see. Very interesting to see the diversity from Dubai.

We have been in this tour and was wondering. Worth every penny. Our tour guide Nimesh was excellent, he made our tour special. He knows everything we asked him, the best guide ever. Thanks.

This private tour was one of the highlights of our trip. The personalized attention that a private tour provides is an incomparable experience. Our tour guide, Mehul, was amazing, very experienced and knowledgeable. We were truly blessed to have him as our tour guide as he definitely gave the extra mile (as we say in Puerto Rico) to provide us with the best experience and memorable tour. He provided us with great details and information, plus took us stunning photos of all of the places we visited. Our driver, Kishore, was also awesome and very attentive. The combination of having your own driver and your own tour guide provides a level of detail and attention you cannot get in regular tours. The experience of this private tour is totally worth it and allowed to see some of the most beautiful and recognized places in Abu Dhabi with great detail in a few hours. We will always cherish the marvelous experience we had.

Our tour guide was Ali. He was amazing! I went on a private tour with my husband. He was very informative, patient and kind. The mosque was beautiful, the farmers market type place was cool we got some coffee and chocolate, the old town was interesting with all the coins and different artifacts and the art museum was so beautiful. We stopped for lunch but we weren’t hungry but the food looked great! We really enjoyed it!

Faisal was an excellent guide and took us around Abu Dhabi for the day as a day trip from Dubai. He made a special point to get us to the Grand Mosque early to avoid the crowds. This was the highlight of the day and he brought us there at the perfect time. He was knowledgeable and friendly so we highly recommend him.

Highly recommended full-day visit to Abu Dabi. Travel is by comfortable bus with an excellent tour guide, Mr Muhammad Jameel. Our first stop was to the Grand Mosque, a second stop at the Emerates Heritage Center, a nice lunch break, another stop at Ferrari Word & Yaz Mall .

I recommend this tour. Our guide was Faheed and he was excellent! We visited the Grand Mosque, the Emirates Palace, Yas F1 Circuit and the Ferrari world. Our guide took us very good pictures. Our kids really appreciated that!

Tour guide Shahjahan was so nice both explaining the tour and being a good human with lots of patience. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and highly recommend.

Beautiful experience, key places visited our driver/ tour guide was well informed and provided good information about places visited. ThenGrand Mosque is simply fantastic.

We loved our private tour of Abu Dhabi with our highly professional tour guide. From the moment we entered the vehicle, she was warm, welcoming and providing us so much detail about every aspect of our trip from our start in Dubai to all the beautiful sites in Abu Dhabi. The service is A1 and I highly recommend this tour company.

Wonderful experience! The guide was extremely knowledgeable and spoke very good English. The Grande Mosque was beautiful, and our guide also knew the perfect spot to take an awesome picture! We saw all the main sights in Abu Dhabi including the President’s Palace and Ferrari World!

We really enjoyed our day trip to Abu Dhabi. This tour provided our own tour guide and driver. The van was clean and comfortable. Our guide was excellent. She gave us a nice overview of the UAE on the hour plus drive to Abu Dhabi. The grand mosque tour was superb. Quite an incredible place. We also went to a heritage center and the Zayed Center. Saw the Lourve Abu Dhabi from the outside only. Stopped in at the Palace hotel for a quick peak at the gold leaf ceiling and the opulent fixtures. Really enjoyed our day and it was so nice having your own guide and driver.

Just came back from day-trip to Abu Dhabi - highly recommended. Our tour guide Romena was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, so we learned a lot about the history of the UAE. Pick-up and drop off at hotel was very convenient, thanks Iismael for a pleasant ride as well.

<p>We travelled to Abu Dhabi with our guide, Gabor. His knowledge of the country was exceptional and we came across many sites that we could have missed had it not been for him. Great value for money and we look forward to visiting again soon</p>

<p>Awesome day in Abu Dhabi! Great job by Orient Tours, and we couldn't imaging a better guide than Mr. Mohamed Murasil. He shared his extensive knowledge of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and helped to make our visit an experience we will never forget. It is one of the most beautiful religious sites I have ever visited, and the experience was humbling. We also stopped at the Emirates Palace hotel for a short tour and enjoyed cappuccino and ice cream sprinkled with gold flakes! Overall great day visiting the mosque, hotel, Yas island, Sheikh Zayed library, Ferrari World, and viewing the impressive Abu Dhabi skyline.</p>

<p>Wonderful trip and tour of Abu Dhabi mosque, which is spectacular. Enjoyed having both a driver and personal guide, who imparted a lot about Emirati society and roles of men and women. John W.</p>

<p>I choose this tour because travelled so far to come to Dubai, so visiting Abu Dhabi was a no brainer. The plan was OK and having a private tour made a lot of sense to take advantage of the flexibility and exclusivity it brings. Unfortunately the guide they send me in Dubai did not seem fully knowledgeable of the Abu Dhabi city. They took us to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque, which was great, but after that lost time in a gallery that was a tourist trap for purchase of goods, then Heritage Village and Emirates Palace. By then we had plenty of time to do other things and ask about other historical sites or local market and the answer was none available, I believe he did not knew Abu Dhabi well. Ended losing few hours in the Marina Mall for lunch and the Ferrari which could you do nothing if not entering the park. To make matter worst the driver was pressing and releasing the gas pedal every 5 seconds, making the ride very uncomfortable. I ended up paying a lot of money for a private to make it special and it was a extremely weak experience. Would not recommend this company for their private tours.</p>

<p>Excellent driver/guide team made the best use of the day, with flexible adaptation of the programme along the way, including sufficient time for lunch at Emirates Palace.</p>

<p>We love the tour. Our tour guide Aiman Hamada was great!!</p>

<p>Amazing tour and worth the trip! Ladies beware that you have to have your arms and legs covered as well as your head.</p>

<p>It was a wonderful tour and our guide was very knowledgeable and courteous.</p>

<p>Awesome tour, our guide was nice she let me borrow her extra robe to enter the Mosque. Highly recommended to families or groups. Overall, worth it.</p>

<p>We had a great time and our guide was amazing. Well worth while taking this tour.</p>

<p>Very happy !!! First time booked my trip with Viator and had a very good experience. Looking for another trip with you.</p>

<p>Highlight was the Grand Mosque which is now one of the wonders of the world. Emirates Palace was also a wonderful structure and worth visiting. The driver came on time , vehicle was clean and comfortabl. The driver was very good , well informed about the history, culture of Abu Dhabi and Dubai.</p>

<p>excellent guide. took us all over the city. explained everthing we saw</p>

<p>A great tour. Our guide was off the hook good. He was so patience and his knowledge was super. He loved to take our pictures and knew the best spots. We got to the Mosque early and missed the huge bus groups with lots of cameras. <br/> Lunch was at a mall and we really toured the all of Abu Dhabi. This is a MUST do tour.</p>

<p>We loved the guide - he was very patient and let us take our time as we visited the mosque and other tourist attractions in Dubai.</p>

<p>The tour was very good and recommend it highly. We were not disappointed. Our tour guide was very professional and gave us personal care.</p>

<p>This was a very good trip. The driver and guide were very pleasant and obliging. We were taken everywhere we wanted to go and nowhere we did not. We requested a visit to Masdar which was not on the original itinerary but was organised for us especially. Mehul the guide has a good sense of humour and we felt very comfortable with him.</p>

<p>Well worth the drive from Dubai. This mosque is BEAUTIFUL. Our guide was great and accommodated us graciously. We had a great time!</p>

<p>This was an amazing day! Our tour guide Malik was VERY knowledgeable and passionate about his work. Which lead to a wealth of knowledge not only about Abu Dhabi, but UAE and the gulf region. I STRONGLY recommend doing the private tour as you learn more and can structure the trip the way you want.</p>

<p>Description said we could ask for custom destinations as this was a {costly} private tour. Guide would not vary the itinerary at all.</p>

<p>The trip was very informative and Mehul was a great tour guide.</p>

<p>Excellent. Our guide was articulate and had an excellent command of the English language. Most important of all his knowledge of history, culture and religion were impressive. He was anxious to share his knowledge and welcomed our questions. He and his drivr were courteous, opening car doors for us and conerned about our comfort.</p>

<p>The guide/driver was on time and very pleasant. Although Malik our guide talked a lot he was passionate about the history.</p>

<p>Very nice guide, lot of information,exciting places :-</p>

<p>A must do! If your only time in the UAE is in Dubai, this excursion offers an interesting glimpse into the capitol of the Emirates. The main highlight is visiting the mosque which is well worth your time. Our guide Yassar, and the tour team, without question made the trip for us. He was informative, engaging and funny. Due to cultural expectancies, what you wear on this trip is extremely important. Ladies, clothes to the wrist and ankles required with no transparency. Scarves or fabric to cover the head and shoulders as well required. Men, shorts ok but they must cover to below the knee. We were lucky in that Yassar took extreme care in how we looked before we left our hotel which allowed us all to make modifications before starting the tour. We must confess, his help in stylishly tying our headwear was most impressive! Do note that the amount of walking to / from the car park is sizable. By design, this tour is fantastic for small groups as considerations are made in route to accommodate interests and/or needs. Our groups is multi-generational and we appreciated the ability to skip the amusement part. It helped that Yassar was able to get us into the exclusive Emirates Palace hotel for a walkabout! Talk about AMAZING! Through Yassar, we learned a great deal about the history of the Emirates. The visit to the Historical Village offers a phenomenal view into the investment and development that has been made over a short period of time. Lunch at the restaurant in the village is truly worthwhile. Very authentic and tasty!</p>

<p>Our guide Norman was excellent and provided answers to our many questions. Liked all sites we visited but especially the museum dedicated to Sheik Zayed.</p>

<p>Very convenient private tour, from/to the hotel with driver and guide, very good both of them</p>

<p>Our tour guide was Carla, she was very knowledgable! We visited the Grand Mosque, Heritage Village and Ferrari Land. It was awesome to be able to tailor the trip to what me and my group wanted to see. I highly recommend this as a way to see Abu Dhabi.</p>
