AWESOME

Karen_M, Apr 2024

Tour guide Aleem Khan was great. He was knowledgeable about all the sights and presented the information that kept you listening.

The best

Kenaud_J, Apr 2024

It was amazing. Had a good time. Visited many places. Driver was knowledgeable enough to explain everything.

Abu Dhabi in the rain

Adrian_A, Apr 2024

Driver did an amazing job navigating to Abu Dhbai and back on the day of the heaviest rains in recorded history. Only reason I do not rate it a 5 is that the trip included a visit to a carpet store/ TJ Max like store in which no one on the bus had any interest. We were taken to a restaurant next to this store for lunch buffet of mainly Indian food(which was excellent!)costing 75 AED.However I am sure some people would have preferred to have been taken to another neighborhood where there would have been other options

The best day

Brittney_H, Apr 2024

Our tour guide, Ghulam ali, was THE BEST! He was so educational and taught us a lot about Dubai and Abu Dhabi. He accommodated our needs and was very flexible, kind & patient. 10/10 i would recommend this tour package with this company

Well spent money

Kim_H, Apr 2024

Pick up and dropped off at hotel. We saw the mosque. It was beautiful. Remember to cover up or you will have to buy something to cover yourself up with. We went to other sight seeing attraction. All the time the driver was pointing out what things was as we drove past and telling us about them.

Nice Tour, But Very Rushed

Judie_H, Apr 2024

This was a nice tour, however we were very rushed. I had to literally run through the Mosque to make it back in time. The others were late because it takes a while to see it all.

Grand mosque was...

Craig_P, Apr 2024

Grand mosque was excellent but rest of the stops were not worthwhile. Other stops were simple tourists traps

Can be better

Oscar_C, Apr 2024

The driver was driving to fast. Not a responsible person. Truck was to tide, and uncomfortable. They need to have drivers with responsibility that, they have people, it seems that the driver was in a hurry all the time.

Great day out

Caroline_N, Mar 2024

Fantastic day trip to Abu Dhabi. Rajpoot the driver was really knowledgeable and kept us informed all the way. He had a great sense of humour too. There was also time to buy an Abaya at the mall before going into the mosque. I paid more than anticipated so I would recommend going to the souk prior to the trip as I’m sure you would get a better price. The trip is great value for money to see the Abu Dhabi, the mosque and also Ferrari world especially if you want to buy a souvenir. Highly recommend.

Abu Dhabi day tour

Halas_J, Mar 2024

Qasim made such a great experience for me and my sister. We were in a small group to Abu Dhabi and Qasim was our guide. He did a great job of pointing out different places on our way to the stops on the booking. He never rushed us and was always very informative.

Rainy day in Abu Dhabi

Minerva_R, Mar 2024

The mosque visit was spectacular truly amazing it would be nice to spend more time there than the other locations. Shams was very knowledgeable and was great about keeping us out of the rain.

Book it

Alana_C, Mar 2024

10/10 recommend. Tour included everything and tour guide Hamid was very professional and super informative

Great trip bad exchange of money.

Betty_F, Mar 2024

The trip was fantastic but you charged me for 9 but we only received 8 bar codes to get in venue. You owe me that extra ticket money.

The mosque. Also, I left...

Noelle_C, Feb 2024

The mosque. Also, I left my phone at the hertz gate village but only realised this after lunch and the driver was very kind to have rung them and we went back to pick it up!

Just the job. Just another tourist.

Ivanka_W, Feb 2024

The right to Abu Dhabi was very tight too many people it should have been maximum five. The car was definitely too small. We didn’t have a guid in the mosque with the group. This tour lacked of information. We have not learned much.

A Good Day out in Abu Dhabi!!!

Sriram_S, Feb 2024

Overall it was a very nice experience to go around visiting Abu Dhabi!!! The driver Zar Muhammad was very friendly & professional....

Immaculately Beautiful

Kadijat_D, Feb 2024

The mosque, unbelievably beautiful with huge space that would hold 40,000 people in one sitting according to the advisor, the surrounding space is exceptionally clean, we can see our face on the floor, it’s like mirror. This mosque is immaculately smashing, nothing compares to this mosque for me. I would visit again whenever I come back to Dubai.

Since the start we had amazimng one day experience trip to Abu Dabi and and other ineresting places it has to offer. Quasim our guide and drivere was very professional and informative with great friendly attitude, much appreciated and highly recommend. Thank you!

Avoid this company

elizabeth_s, Feb 2024

Not as expected. SUV showed up with 4 passengers leaving us to squeeze in a small 3 Row seat for an hour and a half ride each way. While they did get us different car for the return trip, the driver was too fast (85+ miles per hr) for the unsafe worn front tire and TPS light on. The stops to a rug seller, date vegetable stand and the ferrari amusement park was a total waste of time putting us back to the hotel at 730pm - the Dubai city traffic took an hour alone. Skip this company - RAH tours.
