Dress code is formal
If you are visiting a mosque especially the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, you need to have a more conservative dress code. For men and women, your legs and arms need to be covered – no shorts or skirts above the ankle. Additionally, your clothes should not be tight fitting – this is not the place for yoga pants! Try and ensure the fabric of your clothes is opaque as well, as see-through garments are inappropriate in a religious environment. Female visitors to the mosque will be asked to cover their hair; however, a headscarf will be provided to them upon entry. As a side note, you will be asked to remove your shoes.
Cancellation Policy
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

4.00We enjoyed our half day tour. We were meet in time and appreciated the convenient hotel pick up, particularly in the heat. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Grand Mosque and had plenty of time to look around and take photos. The Heritage Cultural Centre afforded us a good glimpse into the Bedouin life in pre modern times. The Date Market was also interesting and we enjoyed a variety of dates, fruit and nuts. The tour was very well organised and ran right on time.
Excellent
