About this experience
Abu Dhabi is the richest and most colorful emirate in the Middle East. You will see a magnificent combination of skyscrapers, luxurious palaces, museums, and buildings with unique architecture. Visit the magnificent Sheikh Zayed Mosque, the most expensive hotel in the world, a Bedouin village, and other amazing places. Learn what the city's name means and why it was given this name. I will tell you about the local way of life and help you feel the true spirit of the country.
What to Expect
Bedouin Village and Corniche
Abu Dhabi is considered the most picturesque city in the country. You will notice this immediately as you leave the territory of Dubai and enter the area of Abu Dhabi, unusually green for these parts. Upon entry, I will show you a unique bridge resembling sand dunes. The path will then proceed along a wonderful promenade that will impress you with its cleanliness and tidiness. Our first stop will be at Heritage Village - an open-air historical and ethnographic museum. You will see tents where Bedouins lived, ancient weapons, craft figures of animals, household artifacts, and much more.
Sheikh Zayed Mosque and Wonders of Modern Architecture
You will visit the Emirates Palace, known as the 'Golden Palace'. This is the most expensive hotel-like structure costing over 3 billion dollars. Next, I will show you the leaning Capital Gate tower and Al Bahar - twin buildings with a moving facade. The highlight will be a visit to the breathtaking Grand Sheikh Zayed Mosque. I will tell you how long it took to build the mosque and what its original purpose was. Finally, if you wish, we will visit the Ferrari-themed park where you can immerse yourself in the world of the legendary car, buy souvenirs with the brand logo, and take excellent photos.
