Overview of your Abu Dhabi tour
Abu Dhabis' amazing for so many reasons. It is the largest and richest of the 7 United Arab Emirates and the expansion and development of this young city has only just begun. At the same time it is the home of the Bani Yas tribe who has lived here for centuries and has produced many great leaders like the late HH Sheikh Zayed, the founding father of the nation. On our tour, we visit The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, which is his final resting place. Other highlights of our tour are photostops at architectural masterpieces such as the Presidential Palace, Etihad Towers, the Emirates Palace Hotel and Louvre Abu Dhabi. In contrast, we visit also the Heritage Village where the old traditions are preserved. After driving along Abu Dhabis' stunning Corniche, we visit the date market. Optional and at additional cost is a visit of the Presidential Palace or the Louvre Abu Dhabi.

The overall interaction with Tours by Locals was wonderful, from finding the tour guide to planning my time in Abu Dhabi. Ute was so personable and ensured we made it to every stop that was important to me during our time together. Her knowledge of the city and country as a whole was very impressive. I appreciate it was conversational and one on one. We had a wonderful day together and I would recommend to anyone looking for a fully immersive and interesting tour while making a personal connection.

Ute was very knowledgeable, patient and accommodating. Does very well with mobility challenged individuals, such as myself. Don’t miss the palace tour.
Madani A.United States
We had a great time with Ute in Abu Dhabi touring several sites and learning so much about the history of the Emirate and overall country. Having lived for so many years in the UAE, Ute had many stories to tell which was great especially passing the time in the various queues. While the big sites like the mosque and palace are modern marvels of architecture, it was also great to spend time with her in the simplest of venues like the date market trying different dates from around the region. I highly recommend her as your go to if you’re in Abu Dhabi!
Gerry H.United Kingdom
Had an excellent tour of Abu Dhabi with Ute who we found to be a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. The tour itself was just the right length and level of detail for first time visitors to the city. We also appreciated Ute's flexibility and punctuality which allowed us to decide what to see and how long to visit. Finally it worth saying the transport was very comfortable. Would recommend to others.
Mark D.United States
This was a perfect complement to our tour with Ute in Dubai, which was also 5 star! The Grand Mosque was spectacular and Ute made sure we got the best photo ops. We also enjoyed seeing and tasting the delicious goods at her favorite date market. Would highly recommend!
