Spiritual journey for the day

Whether you are looking for spiritual reflection or just want to visit Abu Dhabi's iconic landmarks, this tour is for you. With a small group of fellow travelers for company, enjoy a comfortable journey back and forth from the doorsteps of your hotel in Dubai. Your first stop is at the Sheikh Zayed Mosque where you get to admire the onion-shaped crowns of the 82 domes, the bluish-gray reflective pools, and the six-petaled flower-shaped clocks, among other things.

Food, shopping, and more sightseeing

Continue onto Heritage Village where you can shop for traditional crafts, artifacts, jewelry, fabrics, handlooms, and historical exhibits before stopping for a quick lunch. Then, you head on to the BAPS Hindu Mandir, UAE’s first Hindu temple. Nothing short of an architectural marble, get to see the whirlpool-like Divine Eye structure and the white marble sculpture depicting peacocks, camels, the phases of the moon and stars, and stories from Hindu mythology. End this beautiful journey with a smooth drop off at your hotel.
