We had an interesting private tour of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque by Ali, an Emirati. His Explanations were very helpful, and he pointed us to the best spots to view the mosque, including the war memorial, which we would not have seen otherwise. Importantly, during a week spent in the Emirates, this was our only extended interaction with an Emirati (usually one only meets other foreigners, who live there).
Had a very good experience with Arabiers tours for our local Abu Dhabi tour.We were assigned Mujeeb as our guide and he was exceptional in providing with all the information about UAE .He was very accommodative with our needs and suggested the best places.I would always recommend Arabiers and Mujeeb .
An astonishing place to visit . Beautiful holy place with great architecture Recommend to visit at the evening The Guide Fatima was great . She could answer any question about the mosque Friendly and helpful - guide code 181
