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 stunning Sheikh Zayed Mosque, the most expensive hotel in the world, a Bedouin village, and other amazing places. You will learn what the name of the city 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 Promenade
Abu Dhabi is considered the most picturesque city in the entire country. You will notice this right away as the territory of Dubai ends and the region of Abu Dhabi begins, unusually green for these parts. Upon entry, I will show you an unusual bridge resembling sand dunes. The path will then lead along a wonderful promenade that will impress you with its cleanliness and well-groomed appearance. Our first stop will be at Heritage Village – an open-air historical and ethnographic museum. You will see the tents in which the Bedouins lived, ancient weapons, craft animal figures, household artifacts, and much more.
Sheikh Zayed Mosque and Modern Architectural Wonders
You will visit Emirates Palace, commonly known as the 'Golden Palace'. This is the most expensive hotel-type structure costing over 3 billion dollars. Next, I will show you the Capital Gate leaning tower and Al Bahar – twin buildings with a moving facade. The highlight will be a visit to the magnificent Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. I will tell you how much time it took to build the mosque and what its original purpose was. Finally, upon your request, we can visit Ferrari World, where you can immerse yourself in the world of the legendary car, buy souvenirs with the iconic logo, and take great photos.
