Abu Dhabi Day Trip with Ferrari World: Grand Mosque, Emirates Palace & Yas Island
Spend 7–8 hours moving between Abu Dhabi’s signature sights: the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, a Corniche drive-by and Emirates Palace photo stop, then Yas Island’s Ferrari World. This private tour pairs cultural landmarks with high-octane thrills and door-to-door transfer from Dubai or Abu Dhabi.
The Experience
Before You Go
Respect the mosque dress code
Wear conservative clothing—long sleeves and long trousers or skirts; women should bring a scarf to cover hair for mosque entry.
Beat the heat
Schedule outdoor stops for early morning or late afternoon and carry sunscreen and a hat—summer temperatures can be extreme.
Bring your passport or ID
A valid passport is required at booking and for pickup; have it accessible for transfers and theme-park entry.
Prebook Ferrari World tickets
Reserve park entry in advance to avoid lines and make the most of your allotted 2-hour window inside the park.

Conservation Note
Coastal development and tourism put pressure on marine habitats; opt for refillable water and follow site rules to minimize impact.
Abu Dhabi transformed from a small pearling and fishing community into the UAE’s political and commercial capital during the 20th century oil boom; modern landmarks reflect rapid, planned development.
