Our guide was prompt and very friendly. Felt at easy straight away. We were quickly immersed into Emiratee history, with a tour of the Emiratee museum of culture and the old Royal palace in the heart of downtown Abu Dhabi. Amaa was very informative but at points wished she would slow down, that saying, she obviously had a timed slot, so maybe longer slots or take something out of tour. Would highly recommend

I LOVED my guides Aasma and Alhasan. It felt like hanging out with friends. It was truly a nice experience to learn from locals and hear about real life here. Super lovely afternoon, 10/10.

The Cultural center experience was very informative as well as the fantastic Musalla al Hosn. Also enjoyed the souk in the WTC

Asma was wonderful and explained the culture so well. I would tour with her again. One of my best days in Abu Dubai.

The best tour to have the feeling of the city life. It included a stop at one of the oldest mosques in the city. Our guide took us to one of the food shops to have local snack. I love food street and that was amazing. Asma is an Emirati guide and she was knowledgeable and very helpful.

I booked the experience last minute and it was very much worth it. I found out about it from a friend who recommended this tour. Out tour guide was Emirati lady who is great teacher, friendly and informative. I loved that we had the chance to visit a mosque from inside. It was one of the oldest mosques in Abu Dhabi built in emirati architecture. Walking in the souk area is amazing and we visited some of the local shops. The 3 hours went fast and our guide stayed with us more as we had tons of questions about the culture in Abu Dhabi. I suggest you do this tour first before visiting the main attractions as it helped me understand alot about things I saw later in UAE.
