Booking through Headout was very quick and easy. Also reasonable cost when compared to other providers. Our tour operator 360 adventures tourism of Maanik Kapoor was very good. Bilal, tour driver who came for hotel pickup. Annyesha, the tour guide was very patient, very clear in explaining in English, the historical significance of each place in Abu dhabi. The Mosque visit was truly amazing. They kept us well informed during the entire tour and gave enough time to visit places of importance. Marina mall and Abudhabi heritage village were also part of the trip

Ticketing experience was smooth got the tickets as soon as I booked them. Review of the tour: We booked a full day trip to Abu Dhabi through 360 Adventures, it was a smooth experience, our captain and tour guide were right on time for pickup, very patient and courteous with us as we were running a bit late to hop on the bus( due to back to back full day tours and exhaustion from long travel) but they were super accommodating and understanding and waited patiently for the extra 10 mins we took. Through our journey, our tour guide Haider told us about all the important information and history related to our tour, it wasn't some boarding speech that you generally hear in tour but all interesting and relevant information. Upon arrival at the mosque again Haider and his other colleague helped ensure that all the guests were in appropriate attire to comply with mosque dress code just to avoid any surprises at the security, I must say that mosque security is very strict about dress code for women, not even slightly short sleeves or see through clothes would pass. The other guy did all the running and got us the right abaya's to enter the mosque, taking the hassle out for their group guests. Grand mosque was the highlight of the tour and very beautiful. I highly recommend these guys to take your Abu dhabi tour with, very professional. The last thing that actually made me book through them was the fact that they do pickup and drop off from your hotel and not to a general meetup point, which is a huge relief.
