Abu Dhabi Travel Forum

Hey gang!

I will be in Abu Dhabi on business in November and will be visiting the Al Ghaith Tower on Hamdan Street. I know nothing about AD as I have never been there. Can anyone give me some suggestions on a hotel in the area? Thanks in advance for the guidance.

Hello,

This can be of minor importance, spending long hours at the airport taking into account time consumed to check in and out of the airport, but I thought someone here would give me a feedback on how to spend fruitful time at that airport. I'll be accompanied by a child and so any ideas on how to keep a child busy and/or comfortable will be most appreciated.

Thanks

We are going to Abu Dhabi from November 8 - 15 of this year and I was wondering if it is better to book tours before we leave or book them once we get there? We are staying at the Al Raha Beach Resort. Does anyone know of any on line secure tour companies to book with?
We would also like to go to Dubai and again should we book a tour or can we get there and back on our own? Does anyone have any idea of what it would cost?
Will the Ferrari Theme park be open by the time we arrive and again what are the entry costs? We have a son who is Ferrari crazy and would like to buy him some souvenirs from here.
Is it better to buy gold in Abu Dhabi or Dubai. All I want is a few pieces ( one for me and one for my daughter-in-law)?
I realize I've asked a lot of questions but any help would be greatly appreciated.
