I had an amazing time on this desert tour! Our guide, Tofeeq ABBAS, made the dune bashing so exciting and thrilling, and it was definitely one of the highlights of the tour. He was also amazing at taking photos — he even showed us how to pose, and the photos turned out perfect! He explained everything clearly, was very friendly and kind, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. I also loved how well the tour was organized. The henna, camel ride, BBQ dinner, and performances were all great, and the whole experience felt complete from beginning to end. Everything was perfect, and this tour will definitely be one of my best memories from Abu Dhabi. Thank you so much, Tofeeq!

This was a fantastic experience - such value for your money! We started off with an extremely fun drive around the desert. Then, when you get to the camp, there's camel riding and sandboarding both included. The shows during the dinner were a bit underwhelming but they had their moments. Would definitely recommend anyone going to Abu Dhabi to do this experience.

My wife and I came to Dubai just the two of us, and wanting to visit Abu Dhabi for about a day, I looked into many travel products and chose the Abu Dhabi City & Mosque Tour on Klook. First of all, it wasn't a huge group; there were just five of us including me, riding in a van, and it was wonderful how the guide kindly explained everything one by one. It was hot, which could easily be frustrating, but traveling comfortably and quietly by car was a great fit for us as a couple! If you are visiting Dubai and planning an Abu Dhabi tour, I think it would be a great option to try.

We had a wonderful tour of Abu Dhabi with Ahmed Hussein. He was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable throughout the entire day. We visited the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and the Presidential Palace (Qasr Al Watan), both absolutely beautiful and impressive. Ahmed explained everything very clearly and made sure we had enough time to enjoy each place and take photos. The whole experience was very well organized and comfortable. We really enjoyed the tour and would definitely recommend Ahmed Hussein to anyone looking for a great guide for a day trip to Abu Dhabi from Dubai!
