Highly recommended!!

Our parents had a wonderful experience! They couldn’t stop praising their guide, Mr. Saleem, whose kindness and expertise made the experience truly special. The outing was planned during an intentional long layover, and everything worked out perfectly. They were promptly picked up and dropped off at the airport, and enjoyed a friendly, knowledgeable tour of the city. They loved it so much that they recommended the experience to us as well!

Operator response

Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful feedback! We’re truly delighted to hear that your parents had such a wonderful experience on their Abu Dhabi Layover & Stopover Tour. Mr. Saleem will be very happy to know that his kindness, care, and knowledge made their long transit in Abu Dhabi so special. We’re glad the airport pickup and drop-off were smooth and that the tour fit perfectly into their planned layover. Hearing that they enjoyed it so much they recommended it to you means the world to us. We look forward to welcoming your family again whenever you have another Abu Dhabi or Dubai layover. Thank you for trusting us with such an important experience!

It was okay but could have had a lot of improvements

Allow plenty of time to get through passport control in Abu Dhabi to go out to your pickup point. If you want to go to the mosque, you need to reserve a ticket online ahead of time. Make sure you bring something that completely covers your arms and legs. I thought I was covered enough but there was about three inches of my arm showing in my sleeve so I had to stop and buy an abiya. I thought our guide could have skipped the tour of the Mandarin Oriental hotel and spent that time in the historical museum instead.

Great few hours in Abu Dhabi

We opted for a long layover in Abu Dhabi on our return from our holiday. As it was Grand Prix weekend all the day stay hotels were full. We researched this trip and booked for 4 hours. Ameer was brilliant. He took us to all the usual AD hotspots but also responded to our request and took us to one of the new islands to watch the spectacular sunset. As we weren’t dressed appropriately for the Grand Mosque, he took us there as our last stop so we could see the building at night time from a distance. What a spectacle that was.
