    Perfect day trip to Abu Dhabi, full of information about the people and culture of the UAE. Guide did a good job of moving us along from stop to stop. Could have done without the Louvre photo stop, especially after sitting in traffic for 90 minutes trying to park.

    Fantastic tour in every way! The coach was comfortable, excellent driver. Our guide Ramadan was terrific, well organized, friendly, welcoming and he managed to keep our group together and on time! Would highly recommend this tour and this guide! The Mosque and the Palace must be seen while you are here!
