About this experience
City of contrasts and records, Muslim land and home to millionaires - this is all about Abu Dhabi! I will show you its splendor, with majestic mosques and luxury cars, and tell you about the fate and modern life of the locals. You will ride the fastest American roller coaster in the world, explore the interiors of the Sheikh Zayed Mosque, and try coffee with edible gold. The story of the city and its scenery will reveal all sides of the dizzying Abu Dhabi.
What to Expect
Bedouin Heritage and Ferrari Park - Contrasts of the City
In the 'Heritage Village,' you will learn about the life of nomads who have been traveling across the Arabian Peninsula since the X century, discover their history, way of life, and crafts, see household items. Another world - the world of entertainment and wealth - awaits you at Ferrari Park. Here you will ride the Formula Rossa: an attraction accelerates to 240 km/h in 5 seconds! Examine exclusive models and retro cars in the park's gallery. A touch of luxury awaits you at the Emirates Palace hotel. I will tell you how much precious metal was used to decorate its interiors and show you where to try beverages with edible gold.
City Panorama, Local Louvre, and Sheikh Zayed Mosque
Opposite the hotel, there is an observation deck - we will go up to admire Abu Dhabi from above. Here, we will have coffee or tea and talk about the modern residents of the capital. If desired, I will take you to the Louvre Abu Dhabi and explain which museum exhibits are particularly valuable. The final touch on the city portrait will be the introduction to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque. The Muslim sanctuary will amaze you inside and out: marble minarets, domes, and columns, Italian stained glass and Turkish tiles, semi-precious stones and gilding in the interior, the world's largest chandelier and carpet. You will enjoy the beauty of the mosque and find out when it was built and what other remarkable features this grand structure has.
