The tour was perfect and so was the tour guide Karam- explained everything you asked and was friendly. Only thing that ruined our trip was the China family, the father decided to vomit in the car even though he had a chance to do it inside the bag. Later they complained about the tour guide that why he didn't stop the car but they never asked him to do so. They should have been thrown out of the tour beacuse of their attitude but as i noticed it wasn't up to the tour guide.

Our Guide Ahmed and the team arrived on time (even earlier ) and waited patiently for me until the scheduled time we agreed while I was finishing to get ready. Ahmed was so friendly, told us a story about the UAE and responded to our questions. I had such a great time at the mosque, heritage village , dates market and othe places where we stopped for pictures. I highly recommend booking from this site.

The travel from Dubai was very good and convenient, the guide was very helpful all the time. Only thing I would suggest that the trip cost should include the audio tour at the mosque as well.

We loved this tour because it was very informative and we saw so much during the day. Thanks to our awesome guide Manjinder Singh we had a feeling that we have really learnt a lot about Abu Dhabi. He was always eager to answer any of our questions and really tried to make sure that we enjoy our time with him and the rest of the group. We are still under the impression of the visit of the Sheih Al Zayed Mosque. It was simply stunning! Thank you for everything! You really made us feel welcomed and we look forward to coming back to Dubai and Abu Dhabi soon!
