Security guards, multiple in each room, are a bit intimidating and you feel being watched and observed on every single step. Weird feeling.”

Travel from Dubai to Abu Dhabi with a licensed English-speaking guide, multilingual audio, mosque entry, Louvre Abu Dhabi admission, lunch, and hotel pickup. You’ll see the grand white mosque, stop at Yas Mall, and spend about two and a half hours at the Louvre.

“The visits to the Mosque and the Louvre were beautiful and we had lunch (in total 4,5 hours). But the rest of the trip we spent in a bus (in total 7 hours) and that was far to much. Because Viator combined this trip with cliënt visiting Ferrari world at the opposite site of Abu Dhabi. So we had to travel this distantie twice (bring and return); would be beter as separate trips.”
