Two emirates in one day: sightseeing tour of Abu Dhabi and Dubai
About this experience
You will find yourself in the amazing emirates of Abu Dhabi and Dubai and witness their incredible transformation from small fishing villages to metropolises. As iconic structures of both cities unfold before you, I will talk about the historical events, economy, culture, and traditions of the UAE. I will also recommend interesting places for leisure and shopping.
What to expect
Capital chic of Abu Dhabi
From Dubai, we will head to the capital of the UAE - Abu Dhabi. It is the country's trade, industrial, and cultural center that will impress you with its history and architecture.
You will learn:
- how skyscrapers and the magnificent Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque rose among the desert
- why Qasr Al Watan Palace is considered the epitome of Arabic hospitality
- where movies like 'Furious 7' and 'Sex and the City' were filmed
- what attracts travelers to the Last Exit - a thematic park designed in the style of the movie 'Mad Max: Fury Road'
