Disappointing

Excursion was significantly longer as stated. At the original booking site, 4h stood for the mosque and 1h for the Heritage Village and about 8h total duration. That's why we booked this. Because we like to take our time for a sightseeing. But here was the typical one again, please. In the mosque we were just over an hour and then a 1/4 hour at the Heritage Village Abu Dhabi. Overall we were on the road for 11.5h for it. There were actually no photo stops, we drove by everywhere without stopping. You have several tours in one accommodation. Some were in the palace, some were in the museum. And we were being coached around on the bus the whole time. Except for the mosque for which we had far too little time, as written, it was just unnecessary driving around without photo stops. Totally disappointing. The guide had spoken German and was nice, but he didn't really tell much. By a tour guide we mean something else. Actually, you should ask for the money back

Operator response

Dear 229gerdd, Thank you for sharing your valuable feedback about our Abu Dhabi City Tour that you have recently joined with us. We apologize for not having met your expectation. Our tour was conducted as per the description. The mosque visit usually takes around 1 to 1 and a half hour. And heritage village is only a short stop. Again our sincere apologies for not having met your expectations. We would love to see you on one of our tours/safaris soon again.

He is the best guitarist!

Our guide Anees explained the history and culture of Abu Dhabi very carefully, so it was a great tour of Abu Dhabi. He showed me where the photos looked good and he actively took pictures, and I am an Instagrammer with over 220,000 followers so I am endorsed for my photography skills.

Full day in Abu Dhabi. 1

The Sheika Zahedan Grand Mosque and the Qasr Al Waran was absolutely fantastic. We didn’t do much else except photo stops. But we loved the two big ones. What needs to be very clearer is that women NEED to be very covered. I had a long skirt, long sleeved top and a scarf. That was not good enough, the white skirt and top were too thin to be excepted in the Mosque. We needed to purchase their long gowns. It was a rush to get everyone outfitted. Overall a great full day. 11 hours
