Abu Dhabi city tour and coffee at Emirates Palace from Dubai

The tour is the perfect introduction to the heritage and culture of Abu Dhabi. Departing from Dubai, the drive to Abu Dhabi is approximately two hours long, during which you can enjoy the street view. The first stop is the majestic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, which is the largest mosque in the United Aarab Emirates and the eighth largest mosque in the world. It is named after the Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, founder and first President of the United Arab Emirates. The mosque is large enough to accommodate 40,000 worshippers and the main prayer hall can welcome up to 9,000 worshippers. Two rooms next to the main prayer hall, with a 1,500-capacity each, are for the exclusive use of women. You will marvel at the mosque beauty combining white marble stone, gold, crystals and ceramics. Afterwards, the tour will continue at the Heritage Village where you can learn about the culture and tradition of the Emirati. You'll then move on to the Emirates Palace where you'll enjoy its signature 23K gold-flaked Palace cappuccino and a slice of cake.
