Magical Dubai

Great experience in Dubai

The UAE Complete - Escorted Tour in 4* Hotels – Full Board Plan

The guide was great. I loved this visit ???? ???? Well worth the price

• Christmas & New Year

Dubai Escape

It was a great experience. Everything was organized nicely.

The UAE Essentials - Escorted Tour in 4 Stars Hotels – Full Board Plan

The guides and drivers were all excellent, 5-star rating. The only improvement would be to: - educate about basic pricing for most purchased items (Gold was explained, but e.g. a Thawb outfit price should be closer to 100 Dirham and not over 200 Dirham - give some hints what good prices for customers are). - hence the routing would make more sense in the other direction (for shopping less expensive first instead of most expensive). But I will not deduct any stars over that.

Explore Dubai & Abu Dhabi 4 Nights 5 Days

Amazing tour in Dubai! We were able to explore majority of the tourist attractions within 3 full days. From the meet and greet at the airport, to the hotel location, and the tour itineraries, the amount I paid exceeded my expectations. I’m happy that it’s not a fully guided tour. I get to do my own exploration of the city.. I already recommended this tour to my friends!

Dubai Luxury Holidays Package 6 Night 7 Days

Die Reise hat uns insgesamt sehr gut gefallen. Wir haben erst knapp eine Woche vorher gebucht und hier danke ich TourRadar für die schnelle Umsetzung und die schnelle Beantwortung unserer zahlreichen Anliegen. :D Danke dafür! :) Zu den Touren vor Ort: 1. Halbtägige Dubai Tour: Es war schön die Altstadt des Emirats einmal kennenzulernen und nicht ausschließlich Hochhäuser zu betrachten. Der Besuch beim Gewürz- und Drogerie-Geschäft, dem Gold- sowie Teppich- und Souvenierladen hat meines Erachtens etwas viel Zeit beansprucht. Bei der Altstadt-Tour hätten wir uns mehr Zeit gewünscht in Ruhe uns die Gegend anzusehen und auf uns wirken zu lassen, das wäre noch zu verbessern. 2. Dinnerkreuzfahrt: Hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir wurden am Hotel abgeholt und wieder dort hin zurückgebracht, sehr angenehm, wenn man sich um den Transfer nicht selbst kümmern muss. Eine Bootsfahrt im Dunkeln zwischen den Wolkenkratzern und vorbei am Riesenrad, gepaart mit einem leckeren Buffet und Abendprogramm ist durchaus einen Ausflug wert. :) 3. Burj Khalifa: Auch hier gab es einen Transfer und Zeit in der Mall. Der Turm ist schon beeindruckend und der Fahrer hat uns zu der von uns gewünschten Zeit wieder eingesammelt, top!. Die Aussicht vom Turm ist faszinierend. 4. Wüstensafari: MEGA! Raus aus Dubai ins "Outback", ab zum Quad-Fahren. Wer mag kann auf einer eingezäunten Piste für 250 AED 20 Min. Quad fahren. Absolut empfehlenswert! Wir waren mega geflasht! :D Anschließend geht es weiter mit den 4x4-Fahrzeugen quer durch die Wüste, das ist wie Achterbahnfahren. Unser Fahrer war so genial Musik wie bei Fast & Furious aufzulegen, das hat gebangt! :D Zeit für Insta-Pics bei Sonnenuntergang, mal kurz auf nem Kamel reiten und das Abendsbuffet in einem kleinen Lager in der Wüste mit Tänzerin und Feuerakrobat, sehr cool! 5. Abu Dhabi Tour: Hier haben wir die große Moschee, einen Blick auf die Skyline am Strand, die Wohn-Komplexe des Adels, einen Souvenier-Shop, einen Früchtemarkt und die Mall am Ferrari-Freizeitpark besucht. Das war nett mal etwas von Ab Dhabi gesehen zu haben und unser Guide hatte viele interessante Infos und Fakten in einer klaren und rhetorisch ansprechenden Aussprache vermittelt, das war durchaus positiv. Wir hätten uns allerdings gewünscht, mehr von Abu Dhabi zu sehen, ggf. die City oder interessantere Orte als der Mall und dem Basar. Insgesamt war es aber ein schöner Tag. 6. Dubai Aquarium oder Wasserpark: Wir haben uns für das Aquarium entschieden, da es so gehyped wurde. Wir hatten uns allerdings viel mehr versprochen. Eigentlich reicht es schon die große Aquarium-Wand in der Mall zu betrachten. Zu Beginn geht man durch den Aquarium-Tunnel mit Haien, Rocken und anderen Fischen, sogar einem Sägefisch. Dann gehts hoch zum eigentlichen Zoo. Hier gibts auch mehrere Fische, das Krokodil, Reptilien, das ein oder andere außergewöhnliche Exemplar, aber nichts was WIRKLICH flasht. Dafür das sonst alles so höher, größer, pompöser in Dubai gestaltet wird, war das Aquarium mit denen in Deutschland zu vergleichen. Insgesamt hat es jedoch zu einem abwechslungsreichen Trip beigetragen. 7. Das 4-Sterne Fortuna Atrium Hotel: Lage etwas außerhalb, aber mit dem Taxi gut zu erreichen. Die Metrostation ist auch nicht weit. Die Zimmerausstattung war ok, Handtücher wurden täglich gewechselt, das Bett gemacht, doch der Sand von der Wüstentour bliebt bis zum letzten Tag liegen, Putzen bliebt also aus. Das Frühstück war ok, es gab auf Nachfrage immer frisches Omlett. Das Personal war freundlich und hilfsbereit. Eine defekte Steckdose wurde am selben Tag repariert. Der Pool auf dem Dach war nett, haben wir allerdings nur zwischendurch mal in Anspruch genommen. Insgesamt ok, nur die Reinigung sollte unbedingt zuverlässig erfolgen. Alles in allem waren wir zufrieden und haben einen eindrucksvollen Aufenthalt erlebt. :)

Dazzling Dubai

Tour Guides and Drivers are fine.

Amazing Abu Dhabi and Dubai

Could have been one more day so there would be more time to spend at each stop. It was very informative tour just a little to fast. Still recommend it as good value tour.

Stars of Dubai - 6 days

All of the tour guides were excellent and very knowledgeable. My only issues were that we paid for a 5 star hotel and we got a 4 star hotel. I let a representative know about this hotel discrepancy and nothing was done or corrected. It was never addressed. Also, we were not informed that we would not be seeing certain listed sites until I asked why we didn't see them. I was then told they were closed due to Covid. Those sites are still listed in the online brochure and thus included in the price.

09-Day Dubai Family Explorer tour

What people love about dubai tours.

Sehr viel gesehen, sehr gute Organisation, gutes Essen, ausgezeichneter Reiseleiter, insgesamt sehr zufriedenstellend. Allerdings: Beworben wurde die Reise mit einer maximalen Gruppengröße von 20 (!), was ein wesentliches Motiv für die Buchung war. Tatsächlich war die Gruppengröße 39 - 41, also doppelt so groß!!!! Wie vertrauenswürdig sind eigentlich die Angaben zur Reise? Wäre die Gruppengröße mit max 40 Personen angegeben gewesen hätten wir diese Reise NICHT GEBUCHT!

Tour bus audio system wasn't working properly so couldn't hear what tour guide was talking about.

Places to visit in Dubai

Dubai is like a glittering oasis in a desert landscape. When you are approaching by road, the towering Burj Khalifa pierces the skyline, slowly guiding you into the city. As you approach Dubai via air, a shimmering display of the glass buildings towering up from the ground below will take your breath away. Enjoy the visual delights as the top Dubai attractions come into sight as your plane eases in for the airport. The Burj Khalifa stands tall like a giant obelisk, while the Burj Al Arab further away resembles a masted ship ready to set off to sail. The artificially reclaimed lands of Dubai Palm Islands and the World Islands will leave you awed.  

To allow you to make the most of your Dubai trip, here is our recommended list of unmissable places to visit in Dubai

• Burj Khalifa

We recommend that you start your Dubai tour with the tallest free-standing man-made structure at 828m high, the Burj Khalifa. You can visit this marvel of engineering either during the day, or wait till evening for its light shows to begin. Take the world’s fastest double-deck elevators to go up to the Burj Khalifa Observation Deck on Level 124 or right up till Level 148 to discover Dubai with a stunning overview of the cityscape. The Burj Khalifa observation deck is the highest outdoor observation deck in the world. This is by far the leader amongst all Dubai attractions, popular with travellers of all kinds.

Located very close to the Burj Khalifa , the Dubai Mall is one of the most popular places to visit in Dubai. This is the second-largest shopping mall in the world by total land area, and is also the home of the famous Dubai Shopping Festival. Apart from being able to spend hours shopping for every conceivable brand in over 1200 stores, shoppers can also spend time here at an ice skating rink, a cinema theatre, a theme park, aquarium and more.

Dubai Aquarium

Located within the Dubai Mall, the Dubai Aquarium is a commonly included part of a Dubai city tour especially for families. The world’s largest suspended aquarium, it holds over 140 species of aquatic animals including rays and sharks. Walk through the 48m long tunnel that will give you a stroll beneath the largest collection of sand tiger sharks in the world. With over 33,000 aquatic animals, sand tiger sharks and sting rays swimming above you, the view will simply astound you. Visitors can also visit the Underwater Zoo on a higher level in the same mall, where in three different ecosystems, a variety of creatures like Piranha, Penguin, Otters, African Crocodile, and Lionfish etc. This is one of the Dubai tourist places that is likely to appeal to all members of the family.

• Ferrari World

Ferrari World Abu Dhabi is a theme park located on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, a short drive away from Dubai. A visit to Ferrari World is high up on the list of many travellers booking Dubai holidays. You can book this activity as a part of your Dubai package from MakeMyTrip. Visitors can enjoy the range of 37 rides and shows at Ferrari World, including the world’s fastest roller coaster, the Formula Rossa. There are plenty of things for young kids to do at Ferrari World too, in areas like the Adventureland and the Car Wash. 

Dubai Frame 

The latest amongst the list of Dubai tourist places is the Dubai Frame, located within the Zabeel Park. This monument is shaped like a giant ornate picture frame, and provides an insight into the past, present and future idea of Dubai. While the Old Dubai gallery shares information about Dubai’s past through interactive displays and 3D technology, at the Sky Deck level the present Dubai view is shown through a panoramic viewing gallery enhanced by various augmented reality effects. The Future Dubai gallery uses a combination of specially produced audio and video effects to create an image of a possible future Dubai. The entire visit is quite a unique experience.

Dubai Parks and Resorts

Dubai Parks and Resorts is the largest integrated theme park and leisure destination within the Middle East. This is fast becoming an essential inclusion for Dubai packages, especially if you are travelling to Dubai with family. The various theme parks here include - Motiongate Dubai , a Hollywood-themed amusement park; Bollywood Parks Dubai , which is the world’s first Bollywood-themed park and has 5 different zones; Legoland with its Lego-themed rides, shows and attractions perfect for families with younger children; and the Legoland Waterpark which is the world’s only waterpark designed especially for children aged 2 to 12 year old and their families. A visit to Motiongate Dubai or any of the other parks within Dubai Parks and Resorts can be pre-arranged as a part of MakeMyTrip’s Dubai holiday packages.

Atlantis the Palm - Aquaventure & Lost Chambers 

Atlantis the Palm is a luxury hotel on the Palm Jumeirah in Dubai and undoubtedly one of the most coveted places in Dubai to stay in. While this luxury Dubai hotel would be a bucket list place to stay for many, even if you are not staying at the Atlantis Dubai you can spend time here at the Atlantis waterpark. The Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark offers over 30 thrilling water slides and attractions, interconnected river rides, cownose ray feeding, underwater adventures, splash zones for younger children. The waterpark even has a private beach for the benefit of visitors. You can combine your Aquaventure trip with a visit to the Lost Chambers Aquarium , which is the largest aquarium in the UAE with over 65,000 marine animals displayed here. Apart from viewing the exhibits, visitors can also participate in the daily feeding shows and go diving or snorkelling among the fish.  

Dubai Fountain

Enjoy the evening of your visit to the Dubai Mall by witnessing the Dubai Fountain display with light and water jets shooting up as high as 150m in synchronous patterns. A water dance doesn’t get better than this.  This is the next level of a water fountain!

What to eat in Dubai

From international cafes to restaurants specializing in Emirati cuisines to celebrity chefs cooking up a storm every day, there is a wide-array of culinary options to choose from in Dubai. Eat out at celebrity restaurants or enjoy a meal in a family friendly and instagrammable location.

Here are some tips on the best food in Dubai and how to enjoy it:

Street food: If you enjoy non vegetarian food, try some of the street food in Dubai’s Bur Dubai or Deira areas. Dubai’s traditional pizza, called Manousheh , is a delicious flatbread topped with salty Akkawi cheese, zaatar herbs and olive oil. Best had for breakfast, it comes along with a creamy labneh, jam, minced lamb and eggs. This is probably the best street food in Dubai! If you like spice, you can also try the Lahem Bl Ajin , Lebanese bread with spiced ground meat topping also known as “Arabian pizza”.

Traditional specialties: The famous Chelo Kebab is a combination of kebabs served with saffron-scented basmati rice, with a pat of butter added on. Likewise, Shish Tawook is a kebab served in traditional style and sandwiched in bread, while Al Machboos is a popular dish of rice and meat cooked together in one pot. Al Harees is a dish saved up for weddings, Ramadan and Eid in Dubai. Meat and wheat are baked together into a salty delight; you can’t stop at one.

Sweet delights: While on your Dubai trip, try some of the local sugary concoctions such as Luqaimat , a deep fried Ramadan special dumpling made of milk, sugar, flour, butter, cardamom and saffron. You can also try the Kanafeh , a traditional dessert made of rose syrup and sweet cream cheese and topped with chopped pistachios.

Vegetarian food in Dubai: Apart from Indian food, you can also try some local vegetarian specialties in Dubai, such as Tabbouleh which is made from tomatoes, green onions, cucumber and seasoned with lemon and fresh mint, or the Fattoush salad made with fried or toasted Pita bread pieces complemented with a lemon dressings and greens. Most of the hotels offered in MakeMyTrip’s Dubai packages will also arrange vegetarian food if requested in advance.

Indian restaurants in Dubai: Dubai has a large number of Indian restaurants to suit all budgets. Some of the more famous ones include Bombay Brasserie, Khyber, Indego by Vineet, Chutney’s, Gazebo, Mint Leaf, Chor Bazaar, etc.

If you are in for some experimenting, you can try a variety of street food in Deira, explore beachside eateries at Kite Beach, or enjoy a lavish dinner at a rooftop restaurant in Dubai Marina. With people of many different nationalities residing in Dubai, adding to its cuisines, there are a wide variety of flavours to enjoy here.

Fun things to do in Dubai

The regular Dubai sightseeing covers the most popular places to visit in Dubai through a half-day or full-day Dubai city tour. For something more, there are a number of interesting and fun things to do in Dubai for travellers of all kinds.

Desert Safari with BBQ dinner

Add a thrilling element to your Dubai holiday package with a memorable Desert Safari along with your friends and family. Travel out from Dubai to the golden dunes outside the city, in a 4X4 vehicle with an experienced driver. Enjoy an adrenalin-pumping off-road dune bashing session of 30 to 40 minutes, and take gorgeous pictures of the sunset. Continue to a desert camp where you will enjoy a delicious barbecue dinner along with musical entertainment under the stars. 

Ski Dubai 

Ski Dubai, the first indoor ski resort in the Mid-East, is located inside the Mall of the Emirates, one of the most famous places in Dubai. This is the perfect place to visit in Dubai for a day of fun with your family. No matter what the weather outside is, Ski Dubai will always be a fantastic sub-zero winter wonderland covered with snow! Here, you can try skiing and snowboarding at 5 different slopes for varying levels of expertise. Ski Dubai also offers classes with professional instructors. There is also a 4500 sq. m. Snow Park, with activities like tobogganing, tubing, zorbing, wall climbing, bob sled rides, and snow play zones. Children will love the Penguin Colony at Ski Dubai, where they can meet King and Gentoo Snow Penguins.

Dhow Marina Cruise

The Dhow cruise is one of the most popular things to do in Dubai for most travellers visiting for the first time. The Dubai Marina, the world’s largest man-made marina, is a peaceful canal lined with famous skyscrapers like the Dubai Marina Mall and the Burj Al Arab. Sailing on the canal on a traditional wooden boat called “Dhow” is a wonderful experience. You will not only enjoy the boat cruise, but also get a great perspective of the wondrous architecture of the area from the boat accompanied by the sound of traditional music in the background. Depending on your preference, you can book a Dhow Cruise with Dinner, or a Sunset Dhow Cruise, or just a regular daytime cruise. Whichever Dhow Marina Cruise you book for your Dubai trip, you are sure to have a great experience!

This almost did not need to be said. Dubai and shopping go hand in hand! Whether you prefer to shop at the upscale Dubai malls such as the Dubai Mall, the Mall of the Emirates, and the Mercato Mall, go bargain hunting at the Dubai Outlet Mall, or stock up on jewellery at the Gold Souk Dubai, Dubai has a lot to offer the serious shopper. If you are looking for traditional products like textiles, ceramics, handicrafts, spices and other souvenirs to bring back from your Dubai holiday, we highly recommend a visit to Meena Bazaar in the Bur Dubai area. This is one of Dubai’s famous places for traditional shopping. If you are a really committed shopper, do consider booking your Dubai trip package to coincide with the Dubai Shopping Festival dates.

Party with a scenic view

Enjoy an evening out in Dubai with your friends and loved ones. We recommend an evening at Shimmers , one of Dubai’s famous places for a special meal. This beachside restaurant in Palm Jumeirah is known for its beautiful location and enchanting views of the Burj Al Arab. Enjoy authentic Greek cuisine in a casual yet intimate atmosphere. This is an ideal inclusion in a Dubai honeymoon package. You can also head to the Lounge at the Armani Hotel for an aperitif or nightcap in quiet luxury, enjoying an unforgettable view of the Dubai Fountain.

Jumeirah Beach Walk

Jumeirah Beach is very upscale and pleasant part of Dubai. The Walk at Jumeirah Beach is a popular open-air hangout full of fashion boutiques, retail stores, cafes and restaurants. Visitors can enjoy the incredible views of the water and the pleasant sea breeze, shop for unique handicrafts and designer products, and enjoy the buzzing vibe of this extremely chic walkway. This place is also where you are likely to see some of the best cars in the world! It is especially popular at night.

Here’s one for the adrenalin junkies. Skydiving in Dubai promises an opportunity to experience freefall right over the unique Palm Jumeirah landscape, or if you prefer it, over the desert outside the city. Experienced instructors guide you every step of the way, so that even beginners can try their first skydive in Dubai. Both tandem and solo skydives are available. It is a heavenly experience worth every second. A child-friendly setting to get a sense of skydiving is available at iFly Dubai , a 10m acrylic glass tunnel for an indoor skydiving simulation experience at Mirdif City Centre.

The 5 most Instagram-worthy luxury experiences in Dubai

Dubai’s high-flying lifestyle is tempting in many ways, with top-of-the-world experiences to explore. Splash out on these unique things to do in Dubai: 

Gyrocopter Ride:   If you wish to take a bird’s eye view of Dubai’s glittering skyline and cityscape, try the gyrocopter experience. This is a small private aircraft, rather like a helicopter, that seats two people and operates from the Dubai Marina. Along with your pilot, you will fly over the Dubai Marina, the Palm Jumeirah, and past the Burj Al Arab. Enjoy the smooth 20 minute ride, with views of the brilliant blue ocean and the glittering skyscrapers of the city. Truly an experience for the ‘gram!

Stretch Limousine Ride:  Feel on top of the world with a luxury ride around Dubai in a gorgeous Stretch Limousine with your own private chauffeur. The one hour drive around Dubai will take you past the city’s highlights like the Burj Al Arab, the Burj Khalifa and the upscale Mall of the Emirates. Enjoy riding around in your luxury vehicle and catching the eye of everybody you pass, as you sit back and relax in your comfy leather seats. This is the perfect insta-worthy experience to book on your Dubai trip if you wish to impress someone special or even plan a proposal!

Chopper Ride:  Make your Dubai trip a memorable one by adding a Helicopter Tour to your Dubai sightseeing. You will take off from the Jumeirah Heliport and fly past iconic sights such as the Burj Khalifa and various other Dubai skyscrapers. Depending on the duration of the flight you have chosen, you will also be able to see sights like the Palm Jumeirah, the Jumeirah coastline, Dubai Canal, Burj Al Arab, Port Rashid, etc. A Helicopter tour of Dubai is certainly a premium add-on to your luxury Dubai holiday.

Private Yacht Ride:  If you prefer being on the water than in the air, we recommend hiring a luxury yacht for a private tour of 2 hours duration. The yacht can take a maximum of 6 persons, so it is great for a family or small group. Enjoy zipping around in your private yacht, relaxing in comfort and watching the skyline as you sip on water and soft drinks. Enjoy the different view of famous places in Dubai like the Atlantis Palm hotel and the Burj Al Arab from the water.

Full-Day Musandam Dibba Tour:  Musandam in Oman is also called the “Norway of Arabia” due to its stunning coastline. This spectacular region, with its beautiful Arabian Sea coast and spectacular Hajar mountain ranges, is just a two-hour drive away from Dubai but offers a complete contrast from Dubai’s modern urban cityscape. Drive to Musandam Dibba and board a traditional Dhow for a cruise on the sparkling waters. You can choose to just relax and enjoy the views, or go swimming and snorkelling in the clear water. The tour to Musandam Dibba can be a highlight of your Dubai package, but remember to prebook it, since it must be blocked in advance along with passport details. You can add this to your Dubai honeymoon package as well.

The list of things to do in Dubai is endless, and very soon you will realise that a single Dubai trip is not enough to fully explore this city of gold. Luckily, the Dubai ticket price for a flight from India is quite attractive especially if booked together with a package, so multiple Dubai holidays are a definite option! We do hope that this Dubai guide will help you pick your favourite places to visit in Dubai for your first Dubai trip. MakeMyTrip has a varied range of Dubai packages from Delhi, Mumbai, and all other major airports of India. So go ahead and start shortlisting those Dubai packages!

How to Pick the Best Abu Dhabi Tour from Dubai (+Our Experience)

By Author Jurga

Posted on Last updated: March 26, 2024

Thinking of visiting Abu Dhabi from Dubai for a day and wondering which tour to choose? We had the exact same question on our recent trip – what is the best Abu Dhabi tour from Dubai?

After several hours of research, comparing dozens of itineraries, and reading hundreds of reviews, I can tell you that the choice is overwhelming. There are hundreds of Abu Dhabi tours from Dubai, with widely varying itineraries. You have to read in detail which places you actually visit and which are not more than a quick photo stop. Furthermore, often they also list the sights which you only pass by…

You’ll find private tours and (small) group tours, full-day tours, or those that only take a couple of hours… There is one thing in common – pretty much all Abu Dhabi tours from Dubai visit Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. But the rest of the itinerary can vary from short stops at some local low-key markets to thorough visits to some of the most impressive landmarks…

In this article, we share our hand-picked selection of Abu Dhabi tours that we shortlisted for our own trip , as well as a detailed description of the tour we ultimately chose. I hope that this guide will save you time and help you choose the best tour from Dubai to Abu Dhabi and have a truly unforgettable experience.

TIP: If you don’t want to read the entire article and simply want to see the best of Abu Dhabi on a day trip from Dubai, we recommend this highly-rated tour . It’s the tour that we chose and it was perfect. It brings you to the three main landmarks in Abu Dhabi – Sheikh Zayed Mosque, Etihad Towers, and Qasr Al Watan – and you actually get to visit each of these places and not just pass by or see from a distance, as with many other tours.

Why Visit & What to See on Abu Dhabi Day Trip

Abu Dhabi is the capital city of the United Arab Emirates. It’s also the richest of the seven Emirates, home to some of the most prestigious projects and remarkable architectural landmarks. So no trip to the UAE would be complete without at least a short introduction to this beautiful city!

Just like Dubai, Abu Dhabi is a quickly growing city with many new attractions, one more impressive than the other. So you have to understand that there is no way to see all the best places in Abu Dhabi on a day trip from Dubai. There are simply too many options and you would need several days in Abu Dhabi if you want to see all the top sights.

So when looking for a day tour to Abu Dhabi from Dubai, you have to decide which of the top sights and attractions you absolutely do not want to miss. Once you make the choice, it becomes easier to pick the right tour that fits your interests.

Here are some of the TOP attractions in Abu Dhabi:

• Sheikh Zayed Mosque – the most famous landmark in Abu Dhabi, included in pretty much all Abu Dhabi tours.
• Qasr Al Watan – UAE Presidential Palace (sometimes also referred to as the Royal Palace) – an actual visit inside is only included with very few tours.
• Etihad Towers . Many tours pass here, but only a few include a visit to the Observation Deck.
• Louvre Abu Dhabi – the largest museum in the Gulf region, among others, displaying artworks from The Louvre and other top museums in Paris . There are just a few tours that visit here.
• Yas Island where you can find the following theme parks: Ferrari World , Yas Waterworld , Warner Bros. World , and SeaWorld . This is not the best place to visit on a day trip since you could easily spend a day at each of these theme parks and still not see it all. So if tours from Dubai include Yas Island in their itinerary, at best, it’s a half-day visit to Ferrari World (most tours that mention Ferrari World, usually only stop for a picture at the parking in front of it).

Here are some additional sights sometimes included in some Abu Dhabi tours:

• Abu Dhabi Corniche – a waterfront road with bike paths and a nice pedestrian promenade. Most tours just pass by here.
• Founders Memorial – a monument. Most tours just pass by here.
• Emirates Palace – this luxury hotel (full name – Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental ) is one of the most expensive hotels ever built. Some tours include a visit, but most just drive by.

Good to know: The best Abu Dhabi day tours include a visit to 2-3 of the ‘TOP attractions’. Depending on the tour and how much time you spend at the main landmarks, they sometimes include one or two short stops at some of the ‘additional sights’ listed above.

However, some tours only seem to offer great value at first sight. When you look deeper, you realize that the majority of your time will be spent in the car or with short stops at ‘cultural’ attractions, such as a vegetable and dates market, Abu Dhabi Heritage Village, or local art galleries. While this could be a nice addition to the main sights, there are so many better things to do with just a day in Abu Dhabi than spend your precious time shopping… So choose your tour wisely!

Below, you can find our hand-picked selection of the best Abu Dhabi tours from Dubai.

Best Abu Dhabi Tours from Dubai

As I said, there are so many Abu Dhabi tours from Dubai that the choice can look daunting. Based on the research I did for our recent trip, I made a selection of just a few VERY BEST options. This was my personal shortlist.

Here are some of the best-rated Abu Dhabi tours from Dubai , with a short overview of just the main landmarks that you actually visit:

• Premium Full-Day Sightseeing Tour (+-9-10 hrs). Includes a visit to Sheikh Zayed Mosque, Etihad Towers, and Qasr Al Watan. This is the tour we chose and can highly recommend if you want to see the most important landmarks of Abu Dhabi in a day. You can also book this same tour including lunch at a traditional restaurant (we had lunch there too and it was excellent).
• Full Day Tour with Ferrari World (+-10 hrs). This tour includes a visit to Sheikh Zayed Mosque and Ferrari World, as well as a stop at Heritage Village. If you want to see the Mosque and ride some of the fastest rollercoasters in the world, this is by far the best tour. Most others only include a photo stop at Ferrari World.
• Full Day Trip with Mosque & Louvre (+- 9hrs). Includes a visit to Sheikh Zayed Mosque and Louvre Abu Dhabi.
• Half Day Tour (+- 5hrs). This popular tour only visits the famous Sheikh Zayed Mosque. It’s a good option if you are really short on time.

Good to know: Most of the tours listed here are small-group tours, but they are also available as private tours . You can choose from different options once you select the number of people and travel dates.

Further below, you can read a short review of the tour that we chose and see some more pictures of the places that we visited on this Abu Dhabi day trip.

Review of Our Abu Dhabi Sightseeing Tour from Dubai

As already mentioned, we chose this highly-rated guided tour for our Dubai to Abu Dhabi day trip.

Just to be clear – we do not organize these tours or have anything to do with the company that runs them. Like you, we are just travelers who do their own research, pay for the experiences we like to have, and hope that we made the right choice.

This Abu Dhabi tour was not cheap, but it brings you to the most impressive places in Abu Dhabi. We felt that it offers really good value. If you want to see the most important landmarks of Abu Dhabi in just a day, then you really cannot go wrong with this tour.

Here is what our Abu Dhabi tour looked like:

Pick up in Dubai & Drive to Abu Dhabi

We booked the tour starting at 8:45 AM. The evening before the tour, I received a WhatsApp message from the tour company informing us that they would pick us up at 8:15 AM.

The driver was on time and we stopped to pick up two other people along the way. He then brought us all to yet another hotel where we transferred to a small bus (our group had 18 people).

Good to know: The drive from Dubai to Abu Dhabi normally takes about 1.5 hours, but it can also take much longer due to busy traffic. The same on the way back.

PRO TIP: When booking a full-day tour from Dubai to Abu Dhabi, don’t make any other plans for that day – that way, you don’t have to worry about busy traffic or potential delays. If you are planning a half-day trip , I would also foresee some buffer time, or opt for an afternoon tour (or a ‘sunset’ tour, as they call it) – that way, you can still do something else in Dubai in the morning.

Drive through Abu Dhabi

On the way to Abu Dhabi, our guide informed us that we would start our tour with Qasr Al Watan Royal Palace and visit Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque at the end of the day. This is because there was a big cruise ship in town and since pretty much all visitors go to the Mosque, it’s extremely crowded in the morning.

This was a good decision, indeed. By the time we got to the Mosque, it was just pleasantly lively. I can’t imagine what it must look like in the mornings when several gigantic cruise ships are visiting.

On the way to the President’s Palace, we passed Yas Island and could see the famous Ferrari World and other attractions in the distance. We also saw Saadiyat Island with the Abu Dhabi Louvre – also from quite far away. Once in the city center, we drove past the Corniche – Dubai waterfront – and saw the Founders Memorial as well as the Emirati Palace.

You only get to see all these places from the bus, but it gives you an idea of what Abu Dhabi is like.

Qasr Al Watan

Abu Dhabi’s Presidential Palace sits in a huge opulent complex by the sea overlooking the city in the distance. The main highlight here is Qasr Al Watan .

This magnificent palace might remind you of the famous Taj Mahal in India, but this one was built just recently – between 2010 – 2017. Its architecture and grandeur will take your breath away!

The palace was built using some of the finest materials including Italian marble, gold, Swarovski crystals, and gigantic handmade carpets. It is absolutely magnificent and I would even say that it’s one of the most beautiful buildings on the planet.

Quite frankly, I don’t understand why it’s not as popular as the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. These two places are just as impressive and both are absolutely not to be missed in Abu Dhabi!

Our tour guide gave us a short introduction to the Palace and explained where to find the ‘must sees’. After that, we had about more than an hour to explore the palace and its grounds on our own.

This is something I really liked about this tour – we got just plenty of information, but also plenty of free time at each of the landmarks visited.

Good to know: While it is a working palace, it’s mostly used for ceremonial functions and big political gatherings. So the palace is open to the public, except if there is some special political event or a visit by another head of state.

You will have to go through airport-style security here, but you can simply leave all your belongings on the tour bus and just take your camera with you.

Etihad Towers

The next stop on our itinerary was the Observation Deck at the Etihad Towers . There are five skyscrapers here, of varying height. We were told that the five towers represent unity, like the five fingers of a hand. I also read somewhere that they refer to several important Arabic symbols, such as falconry and swords. 

In addition to their unique architecture and symbolism, Etihad Towers offer stunning 360° views of the city and the Arabian Gulf from the Observation Deck at 300 meters . It’s located on the 74th floor of Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers Hotel .

The views from here are spectacular and – in my opinion – more impressive than from most of the viewpoints in Dubai, including the views from Burj Khalifa.

Right below, you can see the entire Presidential Palace complex as well as the Emirates Palace and several other luxury hotels, including Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi which looks like a copy of the famous Atlantis The Palm in Dubai . The seashore and Corniche make the views even more special.

Good to know: Etihad Towers Observation Deck is supposedly just a short stop of about half an hour, out of which you have about 15 minutes to enjoy the views at the top (which sounds little but is actually plenty). However, depending on the queue at the elevators, it might take longer.

After the visit to Etihad Towers, we drove to Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. There is an underground mall here – Souq Al Jami – where you can find a big food court with a wide variety of restaurants.

Before we headed for lunch, our guide quickly checked if everyone was dressed ‘acceptably’ for the Mosque visit and went to get some Abaya (long black dress) and scarves for women.

If you wear long pants/skirt, a blouse that covers your arms completely, and have a scarf to cover your hair, you don’t need this dress. But if your clothes are just not long enough or see-through (even a bit), they recommend wearing the Abaya. So I opted for that, just to be safe.

If you choose the tour that includes lunch , you will have a traditional lunch at the Michelin-star Al Khayma Heritage Restaurant. Otherwise, you can decide where you want to eat when you get there. You will find all the famous fast-food chains here as well as Italian and Mexican restaurants, etc. However, it’s your chance to try some really good Arabian food so we recommend that you go to Al Khayma.

We had lunch at this restaurant, following our guide’s recommendation and everything was delicious.

I read in some reviews that people felt lunch was a bit rushed, but we had about 1h15 which was plenty. I even found the time to quietly put on the Abaya before meeting the guide at the agreed time and place.

Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque

Sheikh Zayed Mosque is the most famous landmark in Abu Dhabi and a must-see! It’s the finest example of Islamic architecture and is absolutely breathtaking, both outside as well as inside.

As a non-Muslim, you can only visit part of the Mosque, but no worries – you can see the most impressive parts. You are also allowed to view the main worship hall which is nothing short of remarkable.

Here, you can see the world’s largest hand-knotted carpet, ornate decorations, and several impressive Swarovski chandeliers. It’s also incredibly spacious and can accommodate about 40,000 people inside!

If you are a Muslim, you can also go to pray inside, but during the week, the main hall seemed to be empty. The main prayer hall is closed to visitors between noon and 3 pm on Fridays, so tours try to visit before or after that.

As mentioned earlier, the Grand Mosque is one place that is included in all tour itineraries and is visited by pretty much every tourist who sets foot in Abu Dhabi, even if just for a few hours. This means that the Mosque is always extremely busy. Tickets have to be reserved in advance, for a specific time slot, etc.

Because of really bad traffic in Dubai on the day of our visit (it rained the day before which only happens a few times a year and leaves the area in chaos :)), we were way too late for the time slot booked. No worries, though. Everything was rearranged by the tour company while we were having lunch.

We entered without any wait at all and our guide made sure that we had plenty of time inside the Mosque (about 15-20 minutes with a guide and more than an hour on our own).

I liked that they didn’t rush us or cut the tour short and gave us the full experience. This meant that we were back in Dubai later than planned but that was no big deal since it was a full-day trip anyway.

Good to know: Also here, you will have to go through airport-style security. As mentioned before, there is a dress code as well. In general, they recommend long, loose ankle-length trousers or skirts. As a minimum, for men, shoulders and knees have to be covered. For women, the rules are stricter and you have to cover up everything except your face, hands, and feet (which means that sandals are ok).

Our tour provided Abaya dresses and scarves for women, which just made things simpler.

Drive back to Dubai

After our visit to the Mosque, the shuttle brought us back to Dubai. There was plenty of time to rest (or even sleep) on the bus.

Just as in the morning, the bus dropped us off at a place where they had private drivers waiting to take everyone back to their hotels. This way, nobody had to wait longer than necessary. The tour was really well organized and I couldn’t fault anything.

The only issues we had that day were related to exceptionally hard rain that left the roads blank and resulted in really bad traffic. Knowing that it only rains a few days per year in the UAE, the risk of you encountering the same is pretty low. Still, as mentioned before, I wouldn’t make any other plans for the evening – that will make your tour more relaxed.

Abu Dhabi Tour with Kids

If you are travelling with children and wonder if you can do a day tour to Abu Dhabi with kids, my answer is yes, of course. Most tours allow children of any age.

However, which tour to choose also depends on your family situation, how many kids you have, how old they are, etc. In addition, consider how well your children can handle a long bus ride, explore the landmarks, and – not to underestimate – practicalities such as the heat or not being able to use the bathroom or eat whenever they fancy.

That being said, if you can keep the kids busy in the car for 1.5- 2 hours and they can behave at the Mosque or the Presidential Palace, I see no reason why you couldn’t take them.

We did this Abu Dhabi tour with teens and – while they were the only kids in our group – we had no issues whatsoever. They were also truly fascinated by the incredible architecture we saw and truly enjoyed the day (having their phones for the long ride definitely helped though).

When I asked them about their top experiences on this trip, the Abu Dhabi day trip was in their top 3, together with a camel ride in the Dubai desert and a boat ride on the Burj Lake . They also really enjoyed Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark but ‘ranked’ the Abu Dhabi day trip as a more special experience.

TIP: If you want to take a day trip from Dubai to Abu Dhabi with children, consider booking a private tour. As already mentioned, pretty much all the tours we listed in this article can also be booked as private tours. It will be much more relaxing and you will spend less time in the car since they will pick you up from the hotel and drive directly to Abu Dhabi rather than gathering the whole group in a bus.

Alternatively, look into tours that visit the Mosque and maybe Ferrari World or one of the other theme parks on Yas Island (e.g. this tour ). That way, your tour has something for everyone in the family. That said, with very young kids, consider height restrictions for rollercoasters and similar.

Practical Info & Tips for Abu Dhabi Tours

Here is some additional information you may want to know when considering a tour from Dubai to Abu Dhabi:

• Most Abu Dhabi tours from Dubai include a pick-up/drop-off at your hotel . Keep in mind that the pick-up time can be up to an hour earlier than the official tour starting time (the same as the drop-off).
• Pretty much all tours in the UAE include drinking water (on our tour, there was a large cool box full of water on the bus).
• Keep in mind that entry to Sheikh Zayed Mosque might be restricted at certain times of the day during Islamic holidays and also on Fridays. Qasr Al Watan might also be closed if there are any political meetings at the palace. That’s another advantage of going with a tour – they know the schedules and adjust the visit. Still, you can never exclude a tiny chance of some last-minute changes when visiting places like that.
• Some Abu Dhabi tours also include Abaya dresses for women at Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, but that’s not always the case. So be sure to double-check that in the tour description if you need one.
• There is no strict dress code at other places in Abu Dhabi, only at the Mosque. However, if you are visiting the Presidential Palace, they also recommend loose long pants or a skirt and a modest blouse/shirt that covers your shoulders.
• Take some sunscreen lotion and sunglasses with you. A sun hat can be a good idea as well.
• Pack only what you need – it will be easier to go through security checks everywhere. Furthermore, you can safely leave other belongings (food, sunscreen lotion, etc.) on the tour bus.
• There are free bathroom facilities at all the sights we visited on this tour, but not on a bus. They also don’t stop anywhere along the way.
• You get about 60-75 minutes for lunch on this tour, but depending on the traffic, it can be quite late in the day. So if you need some more energy during the day, pack some small snacks with you.

PRO TIP: There’s one thing we noticed when booking our tour to Abu-Dhabi is that on some days, prices were much higher than on others (this could be related to school holidays, public holidays, and similar). So if you are somewhat flexible, check a few different dates when booking the tour – sometimes, travelling a day earlier or later might save you quite some money.

So, this is our guide to Abu Dhabi tours from Dubai and a short review of the tour that we chose. I hope that it gives you a better idea of what to expect and helps you find the best tour that suits your interests.

I want to add that visiting Abu Dhabi was one of the main highlights of our recent trip to Dubai. It’s such a rich and memorable experience, and I’m so glad that we did it. Yes, it was a long day, but it felt rather relaxed and we came home with a much better appreciation of the UAE culture. Highly recommended!

If you want to book the same tour as the one that we did and described here, you can do so via this link through GetYourGuide . This is the website we personally use for all our tour and ticket bookings worldwide and I can only recommend it. We booked all tours and experiences in Dubai through them.
