Beautiful day - Wonderful day trip! Our lovely tour guide made sure we could see all that Abu Dhabi had to offer. Including the beautiful mosque, local palace, heritage village and local date market, with our final stop the Ferrari world. Our driver Khurshid Dar was very welcoming and gave us lots of information and funny stories throughout the day!

Fantastic day trip - It was an amazing trip to Abu Dhabi, and our guide, Khurshid Dar, brought us to so many places, describing so much history and details of what we were seeing, that it would have been impossible to do it by ourselves. Recommended.

Best experience with Sahara adventure, Highly recommend - Our desert safari with Latif Jan was fantastic! He’s a skilled and friendly guide who made the dune bashing thrilling yet safe. The sunset views and his knowledge of the desert added to the experience. At the camp, we enjoyed great food, entertainment, and Latif’s exceptional hospitality. Highly recommend Latif for an unforgettable adventure

A great day with Dar in Abu Dhabi - Unfortunately, we were picked up by a driver for the wrong tour and only realized this in Abu Dhabi when we were supposed to spend three and a half hours in a mall before returning home. Joy saved the day by being immediately available via WhatsApp and phone and responding on the spot by sending us a private driver. Thank you Joy!!! 1 hour later Khurshid Dar arrived and made us forget the unfortunate start to the day. Dar knew his way around Abu Dhabi, took us to great places, knew something about everything and made the day an unforgettable experience for our whole family. Thanks to him, we arrived at the mosque at exactly the right time to see it in the light of the setting sun, a very special experience. Even the one and a half hour drive back to Dubai was pure pleasure with Dar and we learned a lot about the country and its people from him. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him in Abu Dhabi and we can highly recommend him as a private guide!

Worth it!!! - Really enjoyed tour. Pick up was on time. Provided with lots of knowledge for all the places visited. The tour could have extended for longer as we had returned by 4.30.

Disappointing and Rushed Experience - Not Recommended - I recently took this tour, and unfortunately, it did not live up to expectations. The entire experience felt incredibly rushed, and it was clear that time management was poorly planned. Most of the sights were only visible from the bus, leaving little opportunity to actually explore or appreciate them. One of the most disappointing parts was visiting the mosque. While it was supposed to be a highlight of the trip, the guide simply dropped us off and left us to walk through on our own. There was no proper guidance or information provided during the visit, which felt impersonal and unorganized. At the Heritage Village, we were given a mere 15-20 minutes to walk through, which was far too short to fully enjoy or learn anything. This quick stop was followed by a brief photoshoot, and then we were given just an hour at the mall or the option to visit Ferrari World. Even choosing the Ferrari World option, it was clear that an hour was nowhere near enough time to enjoy the experience properly. On the other hand, those who chose the mall found that they barely had enough time to grab lunch, with many resorting to eating on the bus afterward. To make matters worse, the tour ended significantly earlier than promised. The description stated the tour would last until approximately 6:30-7 PM, but we were back at the hotel by 5 PM because the company wanted to avoid traffic. This felt like a clear compromise on the experience we paid for. Everyone in the group was disappointed by how rushed everything was. While the guide was friendly and provided a lot of interesting facts and local knowledge, it simply wasn't enough to make up for the poor organization and lack of time at key stops. For these reasons, I cannot recommend this tour. It fails to deliver on its promises and leaves you feeling shortchanged.
