Full Day Abu Dhabi Day 2: Private Tour Shore Excursion
This is the 2nd Day Abu Dhabi Shore Excursion while we stop in Abu Dhabi via our MSC Cruise Ship. The itinerary is as follows: Pick up from Port/Hotel Visit of Saadiyat Island Visit of Louvre museum Visit of Abrahamic Family House (a newly opened place where 3 buildings church, synagog & mosque). built together. we will setup a guided tour of this complex Visit of Emirates palace for Gold Coffee experience Free time for Lunch in City Return back to the Port Mehboob, our driver and guide the past few days also was our driver/guide for this trip. I'm glad that Mehboob was back because this would be our 3rd day together. The highlight was the stop at the Louvre seeing various Picassos, Rembrandt and Monets. The Abrahamic Family House was honestly a failed trip since we were suppose to have a guided tour of the complex that housed a Mosque, a Catholic Church and Synogogue all in one place to show the country's inclusiveness but we apparently missed our tour time and so our tickets were expired. We had to just take photos and said a little prayer in the church. The highlight honestly was the Gold Coffee experience at the Emirates Palace, A Mandarin Oriental Resort. The coffee was so good and the little cake they gave us (the cake has no name according to the waiter since it was just made that day by the chef) was sooooo delicious.
Response from the operator: Dear Customer, Thank you for your feedback. However, after reviewing the information, we have found that you were not one of our clients and did not book our service. We kindly request that you remove your review and direct it to the company that caused your disappointment. Thank you for your understanding.

Full Day Private Shore Tour in Abu Dhabi from Abu Dhabi Port: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Abu Dhabi.
How much does Full Day Private Shore Tour in Abu Dhabi from Abu Dhabi Port cost?
+
Prices start at $481 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Abu Dhabi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full Day Private Shore Tour in Abu Dhabi from Abu Dhabi Port take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Abu Dhabi is not rushed.
Is Full Day Private Shore Tour in Abu Dhabi from Abu Dhabi Port worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 38 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Abu Dhabi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Private Shore Tour in Abu Dhabi from Abu Dhabi Port?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Full Day Private Shore Tour in Abu Dhabi from Abu Dhabi Port suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full Day Private Shore Tour in Abu Dhabi from Abu Dhabi Port?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Abu Dhabi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Abu Dhabi and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full Day Private Shore Tour in Abu Dhabi from Abu Dhabi Port start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Abu Dhabi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Abu Dhabi?
+
On Outty we rank every Abu Dhabi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dubai Evening Desert Safari BBQ Premium Camp & optional Quad Bike, Abu Dhabi Desert Safari with Camel Ride BBQ Dinner and Live Shows, Desert Safari In Abu Dhabi With BBQ Dinner. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Abu Dhabi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Abu Dhabi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
