Exploring Abu Dhabi by Hire Car
Abu Dhabi (Arabic for father of the gazelle) emirate and eponymous capital of the United Arab Emirates, attracts with sights, shopping malls, wide fine sandy, clean natural beaches, museums as well as fancy fun sports activities, such as sand skiing or sand boarding.
Sightseeing in Abu Dhabi
The city and its surroundings, the pristine desert, the turquoise sea, the lush oases like from 1001 nights and numerous parks, offer every tourist variety and relaxation with year-round sunshine guarantee.
The cityscape of Abu Dhabi City features both ultra-modern architecture and traditional buildings. Veiled women drive the well-maintained streets in luxury sedans and men in traditional robes (white jalabias) handle MP3 players and cell phones.
Discover the Abu Dhabi area
The best way to experience Abu Dhabi is in a hire car, whether you want to explore the Corniche, the eight-kilometre-long coastal road with beach promenade and numerous parks, or take a detour to Heritage Village, the reconstructed Bedouin village.
The souks, the spice market and gold souk of the capital, are also easily accessible in a hire car.
Because Abu Dhabi is just discovering tourism for itself, visitors can experience the original Arab culture more directly than in the better-known Dubai, without sacrificing comfort, extravagance and luxury.
Abu Dhabi, like Dubai, has recently added an indoor snow resort for skiing or simply cooling off.
