It was wonderful from start to finish! My inbound flight was delayed, however, my tour guide waited patiently for my arrival and was able to fit quite a lot of sightseeing into a shorter than anticipated timeframe. He was also so tremendously dedicated to making sure I had allll the photo opportunities. So, for the first time, I actually have photos with me in them!
Due to a slightly longer stay at Abu Dhabi airport , we booked a round trip with private driver. Everything worked great. Driver Khalid accompanied us very well through the city and was also flexible in time as well as destination planning. Top!👍
Khalid our tour guide was very helpful. He tailored our tour based on our requirements and took us to our destinations in a timely fashion. Gave a good background and even helped us take pictures. Very helpful.
This was more of an adventure than a tour. It’s hard to count the number of amazing places we visited during the tour. Every stop was not only a sight but a remarkable story about that location. Stringing together history, culture, insight, and the remarkable change that has come to Abu Dhabi over the last few decades. We definitely recommend taking this adventure!!
We had a full day tour with Khalid who took us to all the important sightseeings of Abu Dhabi. He was very kind and really pleasant. He new all the things someone needs to know when he visits! We could ask for a better guide! Thank you Khalid!!
Our transit tour in Abu Dhabi was wonderful. Our guide, Khalid, was very kind and knowledgeable. We visited the Grand Mosque and the Louvre Abu Dhabi, and he took many great photos for us. It was a great experience and I really enjoyed the tour.
There is one smart way to see Abu Dhabi in one day if short on time, is with this private tour. Best décision ever, no stress, no frustrations just pure joy with Khalid as the driver. Very knowledgable, knows all the great spot to take photos and took me to all the land mark i wanted to see and more. Also took me to a great place for lunch and all this in a confortable vehicle. He was on time for pick up and he was a true blessing to spend the day with him. He Even had the garment needed to wear at the mosque. This is the best tour in Abu Dhabi and worth every penny. Khalid is a wealth of information and passionate about his job and this country. Dont hesitate this is the tour to took
Perfect visit. I highly recommend Khalid as a guide, both for his friendliness and his availability. We toured all of Abu Dhabi without getting tired, and everywhere we went we were offered impeccable service. Highly recommended.
We were traveling with children, but because it was a private tour, we were able to sightsee without worrying too much about time. We were able to take our time looking around the mosque and take lots of photos at the view spots along the way, so we were very satisfied. Our guide,Mr. Khalid, was friendly and talked to us and the children a lot, so we had a great time. Thank you very much. 子連れでしたがプライベートツアーだったので、時間もあまり気にせず観光することができました。 モスクもゆっくり見れましたし、途中のビュースポットで写真も沢山撮れ、大満足でした。 ガイドのKhalidさんはフレンドリーで、子供や私達にも沢山話しかけてくれて、楽しく過ごせました。 ありがとうございました。
Khaled was amazing … he showed us the city in a fun / interesting and very great knowledgable way ! They day flew by and thanks to him we saw it all ! We also added lunch which was awesome 🙌🏽! 8 stars 🌟
