A tour worth taking

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.

Great tour, had a wonderful experience in Any Dhabi

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!

Single day in Abu Dhabi

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

Excellent introductory tour to Abu Dhabi

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.

Perfect Day Trip

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!
