The best tourguide from Dubai!!!! - During a recent trip to Abu Dhabi i had the pleasure of embarking on a guided tour led by Sharaf, the guide. From the outset, it was clear that our guide posessed a deep understanding of the whole country its history, culture and landmarks. He encouraged questions and discussions creating a welcoming environment where everyone felt comfortable sharing their thoughts and experiences. His passion, expertise, and genuine warmth made for a truly memorable experience, one that I would highly recommend to anyone eager to discover the wonders of UAE. Thank you so much Sharaf!

The beautiful Grand Mosque - The grand mosque was such a beautiful experience! It was amazing learning the history of the Grand Mosque as well as being able to see the beautiful architecture and detail that went into building it. Our tour guide Sharaf made the experience even better with his knowledge of the city and amazing hospitality. I highly recommend this experience for anyone visiting Abu Dhabi

Tour was not as promised - In the tour description, it says "the guide will give you lots of interesting info about UAE along the way." Unfortunately, the guide did not provide any information, even when asked. He said this was only included in the Abu Dhabi city tour (incorrect) and then later apologized and said he was not the usual guide and was merely serving as a driver. When I informed the tour operator what happened, he only said "let me check with the driver" and never got back to me. Very disappointing. The mosque was beautiful, though.
