Shafi was an excellent tour guide, polite and full of knowledge about all the places that was in the tour. The half day tour is very worth it. He took time and explained the details very well that made the tour pleasant and enjoyable
I had a wonderful day exploring Abu Dhabi with Shafi. As a solo traveler, I appreciated how he made the tour feel personal and relaxed, tailoring the pace to me. At Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, his explanations of the architecture and history added so much meaning to the visit. We also stopped at Emirates Palace and drove along the Corniche, with Shafi pointing out landmarks and sharing the story of the city's waterfront along the way. We finished at the dates market, where his local knowledge really shined. He helped me pick out some delicious dates and shared what makes each variety special, which was a highlight. Shafi is knowledgeable, friendly, punctual, and clearly proud of Abu Dhabi. I felt safe and well looked after the whole time. I'd happily recommend him to anyone visiting Abu Dhabi, whether solo or in a group.
We did a half day tour in Abu Dhabi, our guide Shafi was wonderful, his knowledge about and passion for Abu Dhabi was outstanding. On time and calm and great driver.
Sharif was absolutely amazing! We had a great morning and learnt so much from Sharif. He shared so much knowledge and was exceptionally kind and pointed out all the best photo spots. I was provided with an abaya for the mosque and we had a fabulous time. Thank you so much to Sharif - best guide! Kane & Tash

Wonderful experience all round. All the stops were fantastic and well explained by the guide. Pick up and drop off was super easy and communication was great. Shafi couldn’t have been any better! He helped me out a lot by taking photos for me, haggling at the date market, and making sure I was okay throughout. He was super knowledgeable and I felt very safe with him as a women solo traveller! He also got me to try a bunch of different things at the date market which I appreciated. He was super kind. Highly highly recommend the tour and especially Shafi.
