Itinerary
Your tour will begin with a prompt pickup from the hotel / select location at Dubai. Firstly, we will head to Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. This massive Mosque is best known for its exceptional design and construction. Housing 82 domes and 4 big minarets, the Mosque can hold tens-of-thousands of devotees in its open prayer area. Inside its hall, you can see world’s largest hand-knotted carpet, one huge chandelier studded with gemstones, and interiors decorated with gold, diamonds and other costly stones... not to mention the world’s biggest floral design! This Mosque is surrounded by reflective water pool that adds-up its beauty.
After completing Mosque visit, you will be taken by our driver to the next attraction - Louvre Museum - newest sensation in Abu Dhabi attractions and is only the one of its kind, outside France. Enter the Museum with the provided tickets, and upon entering, watch in wonder how those sun rays penetrate through the unique geometric patterns on the silvery dome... making a visual feast! In the Museum’s gallery, you can see innumerable artifacts and artworks ranging from prehistoric ages to the current century. Most of these exhibits have solid connections with UAE’s heritage and culture. To facilitate your understanding, all items are exhibited in chronological order - prehistoric era, origin of Islam, classical era and the modern period. After completing your visit, our driver will take you back to the hotel / select location in Dubai, as scheduled.

It was great! Our tour guide Malek was very knowledgeable. It was awesome that they pick you up and drop you off at your hotel
One of the most amazing experiences I have done in a long time seeing the beautiful mosque and explanations of history behind it all, highly recommended. Aya was super friendly and made sure we were all comfortable and had plenty of time to do things we wanted to do at each location.
Great small-group Abu Dhabi tour. The Grand Mosque and Louvre were amazing. Our tour guide Haidi was very thoughtful and knowledgeable. The booking, communication and hotel pick up and drop off were smooth.
It was such a pleasure to have Aya as our tour guide. She is a humorous , friendly, cheerful tour guide and she made sure everyone was happy and stress free. Her english is excellent and she gave very comprehensive information about UAE and the Great Mosque, delivered in a very clear and fun manner. What a great trip!

Best day trip, get from Dubai to Abu Dhabi and learn a lot in a compact day, Ibrahim was an incredible host, so much knowledge
It’s a full day but our guide, Sharid, was very knowledgeable. And he passed the time but giving us very informative & interesting facts about the area. In early May it was extremely hot. The Grand Mosque was very very hot especially with all the extra garments on. A very worthwhile experience to see Abu Dabi.
