Excellent from start to finish

I recently did the Abu Dhabi City Tour with Qasr Al Watan through Rayna Tours, and it was excellent from start to finish. Everything was well-organized, and a big thanks to Mr. Wafa Abbas for managing the itinerary so smoothly ” professional and on point throughout. Our guide and driver, Juneid, was fantastic. Friendly, informative, and calm behind the wheel, which made the whole experience even better. Qasr Al Watan was a highlight “ absolutely stunning and a real showcase of UAE heritage. The tour pace was relaxed, giving us plenty of time to soak everything in. If you're after a quality tour in Abu Dhabi, I'd definitely recommend this one. Rayna Tours nailed the details and hospitality. Huge thanks to the team ” this trip really left an impression.

Half day tour of Abu Dhab

We did the half day tour of Abu Dhabi and although we got off to a late start because of a traffic accident, we were given enough time at all the different attractions to enjoy them fully. Smit Joshi, our guide, and Vinu, our driver, were both excellent and enhanced our experience. Smit was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about all the attractions we visited. As someone else has mentioned, the ˜museum' visit is a cover to sell carpets and doesn't really add to the experience of the tour. We really enjoyed our excursion and would have no hesitation in recommending it, especially with Smit and Vinu, who are a credit to the company.
