“An amazing tour of Abi Dhabi with Eman!”
We booked a tour of Abu Dhabi with Eman as we had a long stopover on our way home to Canada from our African safari. Eman was so kind to pick us up at the airport in an air conditioned private car. She drove us around the city pointing out special landmarks and our first stop was Qasr Al Hosn palace. A beautiful building, the palace was also a refuge from the heat of the day as we had arrived in Abu Dhabi in the early afternoon. The architecture and attention to detail in palace was amazing to see and my daughter and I both enjoyed our visit. Next, Eman took us to a perfume market and we were curious to sample the exotic perfumes and oils. We could not believe how crowded the market was with many locals purchasing cart loads of scented items - men and women. Perfumes are a large part of the culture in Abu Dhabi and it was a unique experience to visit the market. Eman drove us to an indoor mall, where we had a wonderful Emirati lunch. Seasoned lamb, chicken and rice with vegetables and then fresh dates and spiced Emirati coffee was on the menu. It was a delicious meal that we both enjoyed! Eman assisted us in buying an abaya so that we could wear it inside the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. Once inside the mosque we were treated to more beautiful architecture! It was getting dark outside and the mosque looked stunning with special lighting and pools of water. We had such a special tour with Eman! Her kindness and wonderful sense of humour made our short time in Abu Dhabi memorable. We highly recommend booking a tour with Eman. Thank you Eman for sharing Abu Dhabi with us!

“Memorable! Phenomenal! Loved Every Moment!”
We spent an entire day in Abu Dhabi with Eman. She was gracious, knowledgeable, flexible, warm and a proud representative of her city and country. Just what you would hope for. We not only saw the places we wanted but we had some surprises along the way which would not have ever been possible if it were not for the kindness and spontaneity of Eman. If you ever have a need of a personal guide in Abu Dhabi or Dubai, seek out Eman.
