What to expect
If you want to discover the most important places in Abu Dhabi in just one day, this is your tour. From your hotel in Dubai, an air-conditioned vehicle will pick you up and take you back at the end of the tour. In a group of about 17 people, a professional guide will tell you the history of the three points you will visit during the tour, which will last about 10 hours:
- Sheikh Zayed Mosque: one of the largest mosques in the world.
- Qasr al Watan Palace: the incredible presidential palace of the Emirates.
- The Etihad Towers: a complex of skyscrapers in the heart of Abu Dhabi
The Sheikh Zayed Mosque in Abu Dhabi is one of the largest mosques in the world. With minarets reaching 107 meters high and an impressive architectural style, it is one of the most beautiful and visited temples in the world. But to access it can only be in the morning, from Sunday to Thursday. Also, women must be covered, including the head, and men with long pants. If these conditions are not met, access will be prohibited .
Al Qasr al Watan will not be accessible for guided tours. Therefore, the guide will stay outside, where he will tell you all about the history of the impressive building. You can enter on your own to see from inside the dome of 37 meters in diameter and a chandelier with 350,000 pieces of glass.
In addition, you will have the opportunity to visit the Etihad Towers, a complex of five skyscrapers that stand out in the capital of the Emirates and were used as a filming location for the 2015 movie Full Throttle 7. There are currently offices and hotels inside.
