The UAE's capital moves at a different rhythm — grand, green and unhurried. The day is built around the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, one of the most beautiful buildings on earth: 82 white domes, gold-topped columns and the world's largest hand-knotted carpet.
From there the tour rolls along the Corniche waterfront, past the Presidential Palace gates and Emirates Palace, onto Yas Island for Ferrari World photo stops, with optional entries to the Louvre Abu Dhabi. Available as a shared coach tour or a private vehicle from either city.
