5.00Excellent day with Shakeer! We combined a tour of Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and the desert tour on an 11 hour stop over. We easily covered the mosque and the desert tour in that amount of time with room to spare. Communication with the guides was excellent and pickup worked very well despite our flight being delayed. Strongly recommend doing this if you have a stopover.
