Great family day trip - We would highly recommend this trip. The itinerary was great. We started at the Mosque allowing us to not only get in early before too many crowds, but also was our longest stop which was good with our kids’ short attention spans. Waseem was an excellent guide, providing a lot of information about the UAE, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi throughout the day, while also tailoring the agenda to what suited our family best.

Great Day Tour of Abu Dhabi! - My mom and I had an amazing time on this day tour of Abu Dhabi. It was a small group, just the two of us and one other couple, which made the experience feel more like a private tour. Our guide, Waseem, was fantastic—very knowledgeable and passionate about Emirati culture. He made the whole day informative and fun! The pace of the tour was quick, especially at the Grand Mosque, which was definitely the highlight for us. Unfortunately, we only had an hour to explore, and that just wasn't enough to fully appreciate its beauty and grandeur. But we still enjoyed every moment! Overall, I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Abu Dhabi. The small group setting, amazing guide, and the unforgettable sights make it a great way to experience the city in one day.

Small group tour.☑️ - We really loved our tour today to Abu Dhabi. Waseem was an excellent driver and guide and really informative on the trip both ways, pointing out things and places of note. There were only 4 of us on the tour, which was great. The car was comfortable (plenty of room for each person) and incredibly clean. The only reason for 4 not 5 stars, is that we would have loved more time at the Heritage village rather than stop for lunch for an hour. However, I understand that the tour must cater for everyone and some people love malls!
