At the start of our tour our guide Ahmed Hassan greeted us with high energy, very friendly and happy. He was a good communicator and knowledgeable of Abu Dhabi and Dubai. During the tour he took amazing photos for the group with beautiful backgrounds and different pano affects. Ahmed made this tour one of the best we’ve ever experienced. If you’re thinking of coming to Dubai. Book your tour via La Vacanza Travel and ask for Ahmed Hassan as your tour guide. I would rate this a 10 star but only allow 5.

My experience was 5 out of 5! If you do not have a lot of time and want to experience Abu Dhabi, this tour is perfect! You will cover the Grand mosque, Qasr Al Watan and the observation deck at 300.

We had an amazing time with Ahmed Hassan. He is a very professional and fun guide that made of our tour an exceptional experience. Hassan provide a lot of interesting information about the country and the visit during all our trip. I can really tell he really love his profession and he is a very dedicated and professional guide. He really cares about his costumers. The mosque was incredibly beautiful and the palace was just spectacular. He recommended us to have lunch at a buffet restaurant with local food that I totally recommend to everyone. Very good price quality and really good food. Overall a very pleasant journey. Thank you Hassan!
