What to expect

The tour is the perfect introduction to the heritage and culture of Abu Dhabi.

Departing from Dubai, the drive to Abu Dhabi is approximately two hours long, during which you can enjoy the views. The first stop is the majestic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, which is the largest mosque in the United Aarab Emirates and the eighth-largest mosque in the world. It is named after Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the founder and first President of the United Arab Emirates. The mosque is large enough to accommodate 40,000 worshippers and the main prayer hall can welcome up to 9,000 worshippers. Two rooms next to the main prayer hall, with a 1,500-capacity each, are for the exclusive use of women. You'll marvel at the mosque's beauty combining white marble stone, gold, crystals and ceramics.

Afterwards, the tour will continue at the Heritage Village where you can learn about the culture and tradition of the Emirati. There will be a photo stop at the Emirates Palace and you'll then drive through the Abu Dhabi Corniche and Louvre Abu Dhabi. You'll also have some time to wander around The Marina Mall.
