Description
Start your journey from Dubai in a comfortable, modern, air-conditioned vehicle with a professional guide. Relax during the 90-minute drive to Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, the 8th largest mosque in the world.
When you arrive, you'll be amazed by the mosque’s grandeur, which took over a decade to build and spans 30 acres. This incredible site can hold up to 40,000 worshippers at once.
As you explore, you'll see stunning features like enormous Swarovski crystal chandeliers, beautiful floral mosaics, and intricate artifacts made of gold, silver, and marble. Don’t miss the massive carpet in the main prayer hall, which covers 60,570 square feet and weighs 35 tons.
Capture breathtaking photos of the mosque’s impressive architecture and learn about the vision of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the UAE’s late president and the mastermind behind this magnificent structure. After your visit, you'll head back to Dubai, where you'll be dropped off at your hotel or a designated location.
