Description

Your adventure begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel or selected location in Dubai or Abu Dhabi. As you make your way into the capital, your knowledgeable guide will share insights about the history and significance of the region. The first major stop is the awe-inspiring Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, one of the largest mosques in the world. Admire its stunning white marble architecture, intricate carvings, and the world’s largest hand-knotted carpet. Next, drive along the Corniche, a picturesque stretch of waterfront offering stunning views of the Arabian Gulf, and stop for photos at the Emirates Palace Hotel, an iconic symbol of luxury. Depending on your tour option, you'll either continue with more sightseeing or begin the half-day return. Visit the Qasr Al Watan (Presidential Palace) or pass by the stunning Etihad Towers and explore the Heritage Village, a reconstructed traditional oasis village that gives you a glimpse into the Emirati way of life before the oil boom. Discover old-world crafts, Bedouin tents, and artifacts that tell the story of the UAE’s rich cultural heritage. The tour includes a stop for a traditional heritage lunch, where you'll savor authentic Emirati dishes in a setting that reflects local customs and hospitality — a true highlight of the experience. Wrap up your tour with a drive through Saadiyat Island or Yas Island, home to attractions like the Louvre Abu Dhabi and Ferrari World (viewed from outside), before returning to your hotel with unforgettable memories of the UAE’s stunning capital city.
