Tips to make the most of your Abu Dhabi City Tour

Reconfirm your pick up. Contact the local operator before your tour to reconfirm your hotel pick up time and share your room number. This avoids delays on the day.

Be ready in the hotel lobby. Pick ups start from around 08:30. Be in the lobby at least 10 to 15 minutes before your scheduled time so the driver does not have to wait.

Dress respectfully for the Grand Mosque. Wear loose, non transparent clothing that covers arms, legs and shoulders. Women must bring a headscarf. Guests who do not follow the dress code may be refused entry.

Bring your passport or ID. Carry a valid photo ID, as security checks at Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque may require identification.

Prepare for the heat. Abu Dhabi can be very hot, especially from June to September. Bring water, sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat for outdoor stops along the Corniche and at photo points.

Wear comfortable shoes. You will walk on mosque courtyards, mall floors and promenade paths. Choose closed or comfortable shoes that are easy to remove before entering the mosque.

Respect local customs. Avoid loud behavior, public displays of affection and revealing clothing, especially at religious sites. Follow your guide’s instructions inside the mosque and around government buildings.
