There 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. He was on time for pick up and he was a true blessing to spend the day with him. He Even had the garment needed to wear at the mosque. This is the best tour in Abu Dhabi and worth every penny. Khalid is a wealth of information and passionate about his job and this country. Dont hesitate this is the tour to took

Perfect visit. I highly recommend Khalid as a guide, both for his friendliness and his availability. We toured all of Abu Dhabi without getting tired, and everywhere we went we were offered impeccable service. Highly recommended.

We 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。

The early photo stops are really irrelevant in the morning. Ferrari World had a closed gate and nothing open at Yas mall. The Grand Mosque is a highlight. Date and coffee tasting was rushed and for us could be missed. Overall a good way to fill in a few hours.
