5.00The city tour with Shafi in Abu Dhabi was a great experience. He was very friendly, helpful, and had a calm, pleasant manner. Shafi guided us to the main sights with excellent knowledge and explained everything clearly and with passion. It was clear that he genuinely cares about the satisfaction of his guests. We highly recommend taking a tour with him.

1.00There was no information about who would be driving us and whether it was a shared car/bus, so we paid to store our hand luggage at the airport. The instructions for meeting the driver were completely incorrect. We arrived at the Airport Hotel to be told no tours were being picked up from there, and there had been a number of tour customers given this incorrect information. We finally found our driver in the airport carpark, having gone through immigration three times while sorting this out. Having established it was a private tour we could have taken our luggage and saved the storage expense. The tour guide know his way around but did not prioritise getting to the mosque leaving us very short on time for when we had to be back at the airport. Trying to find somewhere to get some food was a waste of our time, as was the Date Market, which seemed to be a shopping opportunity which as were uninterested in. A very poorly organised and frustrating trip which I would not undertake again with your company.
An excellent tour, with an excellent guide (Shafi)

5.00I was surprised to learn that this tour was a one to one, just me and the tour guide. Shafi was very informative as a guide and possessed a wealth of knowledge that he was eager to share. He demanded a focus because he was going to quiz you on what he just said. This was ok by be as an educator I can relate. The first part was just a ride to the Grand Mosque. I walked through at my own pace which was preferred in hindsight. After the mosque, we met up and went to the heritage center which was interesting and informative. Shafi provided additional insight to the exhibits here. The next stop was the Mandarin Oriental Hotel which is beautiful in it's own right but provided views of the Palace and other buildings in the Abu Dhabi skyline. Lastly was a market that I would have been ok skipping. If you have been on these tours before this is the spot where they try to sell you odds and ends.
A really worthwhile...
