My friends and I went on a private trip around Abu Dhabi. The guide is Mohamed Hawela. A wonderful and interesting trip. Mohamed created an excellent spiritual atmosphere, told a lot of interesting things, drove through the most interesting places of the city. We had a lot of fun. Thanks to Mohamed.

Excellent tour!

Excellent tour. Haroon Khan was a brilliant guide! Thrilling drive across the dunes before going on the dune buggies ourselves. So much fun. Only thing that bugged us was the experience was so expensive and they still tried to use every opportunity to make a sale...scarves, sand, traditional costume, even random guy arrives out to us in the middle of the dunes to get photo of us with a random bird !! Poor bird! However, Haroon was the perfect gentleman and made the trip really enjoyable for us.
