Day Trip to Abu Dhabi

Take advantage of your proximity to another one of the UAE’s most popular travel destinations by sneaking in a day trip to Abu Dhabi. Hit the road early and join the masses at Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque – the largest mosque in the United Arab Emirates – before digging into plates of Biryani Deyay or Punjabi Samosas post-prayer. The rest of the day unfolds in a leisurely manner, with visits to the Abu Dhabi Falcon Hospital, exquisitely crafted artisanal pastries presented during lavish afternoon tea, and strolling around the grounds of the gilded Emirates Palace before hopping in your car and heading back to Dubai.
