Also for adventure seekers, Zip Line and Roof Walk are worth a try! Last but not the least, the spot has excellent shopping options alongside the best lip-smacking refreshments.
Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque
This is the largest mosque in the UAE & also the 3rd largest one in the world. The main prayer hall can host about 7000 people at a time with its specialty being in its being adorned with one of the largest chandeliers on the planet and the world’s largest hand-knotted carpet. Anyone who admires architecture and desiring a view of some magnificent landmarks in the Middle East should not miss this amazing monument which took almost 12 years to build in an area of about 30 acres. This is also worth recommending to young guests as this remarkable structure also falls under the category of ‘The Most Instagrammable Places.’
Desert Safari
Yes, you read it right. Your clients can also enjoy a Desert Safari while at Abu Dhabi. They can take part in activities like dune bashing, sand skiing, etc. Also, there are other activities that can be suggested to your clients like camelback rides & quad biking, alongside a visit to the camel farm or a trip to the UAE’s desert filled with a sumptuous & traditional barbeque dinner under the starlit night skies.
Apart from these spots, you can also suggest your clients to visit the Qasr Al Watan. It is a minor part of the gigantic and magnificent Presidential Palace Complex that constitutes the Government Building of the United Arab Emirates. This royal palace is functional with only a portion allowed for visitors. Taking about 2 hours, the tour gives travelers a view of the marvelous architecture and domes adorned with crystals, granite, and silver. This is one of the few places on earth which falls under the category of “see it to believe it”.
