Warm Hospitality and Expert Guidance - We had the pleasure of exploring Abu Dhabi with Mohammed Rafiq during our layover. He was incredibly accommodating, tailoring the tour to our interests and ensuring we experienced the city's best highlights within our limited time. In approximately 5 hours, he was able to guide us to the best location to buy garments that were appropriate for the Grand Mosque, take us on a tour through the Grand Mosque with beautiful photo opportunities, take us to shopping locations that accommodated everyone's taste and show us the palaces and city view. His generosity and genuine desire to share his knowledge and love of Abu Dhabi added a personal touch to our visit. He is an outstanding guide who made our short stay memorable!
