Set off on an amazing adventure with your professional guide from Dubai to the stunning Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, all while traveling in a contemporary, air-conditioned car. Take it easy on the 90-minute trip to one of the biggest and most magnificent mosques in the world.

This architectural marvel, spread across 30 acres, was a labor of love, taking over a decade to construct. It now stands as a testament to the rich Islamic heritage of the United Arab Emirates. Explore the vast grounds that can accommodate up to 40,000 worshippers simultaneously.

Prepare to be astonished by the mosque's priceless features, including massive Swarovski crystal chandeliers, intricate floral mosaics, and precious artifacts crafted from gold, silver, and marble. Don't miss the chance to stand in awe of the enormous carpet in the main prayer hall, measuring an astounding 60,570 square feet and weighing a staggering 35 tons. This marvel was meticulously handwoven in Iran by thousands of skilled artisans over a period of two years. Capture unforgettable moments as you take photographs of the complex and its breathtaking architecture. Gain a deeper understanding of the visionary Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the late president of the UAE and the mastermind behind this remarkable mosque.
