Anu Dhai Trp from Dubai - The trip was great. Time was maximized, ample time given to destinations for us to explore on our own after Riz, our guide, shares some information about the stop. The palace was absolutely beautiful. The mosque was grandiose! Etihad tower offers a great view of Abu Dhabi.
Riz was very knowledgeable about our destinations, sharing interesting information about our stops. He looked after us very well, taking our photos, and never failing to give us vital infos like where the toilets are, where to meet next.
Id highly recommend this trip!

He explained the facts clearly, was very pleasant, and made the entire trip enjoyable. It was truly an overall amazing experience with a great tour guide and van captain. I would give Riz and his team six stars if I could!
