Tips
- Be ready for an early start in Dubai – the drive to Abu Dhabi is about 1.5 hours. Having a travel pillow or something to read can make the morning coach ride more comfortable.
- Dress code is crucial: wear conservative clothing (long trousers or skirts and long-sleeve tops). Women should bring a headscarf for the Grand Mosque – complimentary abayas are available there if needed.
- The Louvre Abu Dhabi is closed on Mondays, so ensure your booking isn’t on that day. On open days, expect airport-style security checks; carry only a small bag, as large backpacks may need to be left in the cloakroom.
- A bottle of water and some light snacks can be handy. While lunch is included (often at a mall or local restaurant), the tour is quite full and you might have a later lunch than usual after the museum visit.
- Photography is allowed in both the mosque and the Louvre (no flash in galleries). Capture the mosque’s reflective pools and the Louvre’s sun-dappled dome. Just be mindful of worshippers’ privacy at the mosque and art restrictions in the museum.
- Your guide will manage time at each stop, but it’s good to pace yourself. The Grand Mosque and Louvre are both breathtaking – take it in slowly, but also note meeting times so the group can stay on schedule for lunch and the return to Dubai.
