5.00Due 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!👍

5.00This 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!!

5.00There 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.

5.00We 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。
Simply Amazing 🤩!!!
