Join me on a kid-friendly adventure in Abu Dhabi, UAE!

Join me on a kid-friendly adventure in Abu Dhabi, UAE! Following up on my previous post about family travel in the UAE, this time we'll delve into Abu Dhabi with all the essential tips. Save this post! Day 3: Travel from another location to Abu Dhabi (a 2-hour drive, costing over AED 300 by taxi). Check in to Al Wathba, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa, Abu Dhabi (make sure to use the full name). The hotel is incredibly photogenic, with a stunning pool – every shot is Instagram-worthy. Dine at the hotel's Terra Secca Italian restaurant in the evening. Remember to book in advance if you want an outdoor table where you can feed the horses! Day 4: In the morning, head to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. As the hotel is remote, arrange a taxi through the front desk for around AED 130 (using the meter). Be mindful of the dress code for the mosque. If you're tired after your visit, grab lunch at McDonald's in the underground mall. Next, check out the Louvre Abu Dhabi and its iconic walkway (expect a queue for photos), which makes for artistic shots. Finally, visit the National Aquarium, although some find it less worthwhile due to the limited variety of fish, so choose based on your preference. Day 5: Visit Warner Bros. World. While not huge, it's perfect for kids, offering a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Interact with various cartoon characters and immerse yourselves in the joyful world of animation. Day 6: Check out at noon and return to Dubai. Check in to Al Seef Heritage Hotel Dubai, Curio Collection By Hilton. Spend the afternoon exploring the surrounding area and soaking up the local atmosphere. In the evening, dine at the Michelin-recommended Al Khayma Heritage Restaurant and savor the local cuisine. Day 7: After breakfast, check out and head to the airport for your flight home. Key takeaway! When staying at Al Wathba hotel in Abu Dhabi, arrange taxis through the front desk for metered fares. For other trips, use Careem – it's convenient, reliable, and hassle-free. Follow this guide for an unforgettable UAE trip with your kids!
