Shafi gave us a wonderful tour of Abu Dhabi including a variety of places. He is courteous, congenial, knowledgable and informative. He made sure we saw all we wanted and gave us a good amount of time to explore by ourselves. We now know so much more about this modern city. Well done Shafi thank you.
