Art, Architecture & Awe
Enjoy a fascinating day out by exploring three of Abu Dhabi’s iconic sights in one eight-hour tour.
Start at Abu Dhabi International Airport before heading to the Louvre Abu Dhabi, a universal museum covering art and civilisation, which contains myriad priceless items that tell the story of humanity throughout the ages. Don’t forget your camera; you’ll want to capture the structure’s enormous dome, composed of 7,850 stars that filter light through their perforations, creating a dazzling display known as the ‘rain of light’.
Then, enjoy a visit to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, a majestic, welcoming place of worship and one of Abu Dhabi’s most iconic landmarks. This stunning sight is one of the biggest places of worship in the world and is a fantastic place to take photographs.
Wahat Al Karama is next on the list. This thought-provoking destination is a beautiful, permanent tribute to the UAE's brave soldiers and other Emiratis − recognised as martyrs in the country − who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving their nation.
Finally, head back to Abu Dhabi International Airport and onwards to your next destination.
