Abu Dhabi is the capital of the UAE and sits on an island in the Persian Gulf, about 90 minutes by road from Dubai. It is calmer and more spread out than its neighbor, with white-sand beaches, world-class museums, a grand mosque and a theme-park island, plus the dunes of the Empty Quarter within a day trip. English is spoken everywhere and the currency is the UAE dirham (AED).

Why Abu Dhabi for your vacation

Abu Dhabi is the cultural heart of the UAE. The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, with its white marble domes and vast courtyard, is one of the most beautiful modern religious buildings anywhere, and the Louvre Abu Dhabi on Saadiyat Island houses art spanning every civilization beneath a rain-of-light dome. Yas Island concentrates a motorsport-themed park, a movie-studio park, a water park and a marina circuit within walking distance of family resorts, while Saadiyat's protected beach is one of the finest on the Gulf. Add falconry, mangrove kayaking, desert forts at Al Ain and a slower pace than Dubai, and Abu Dhabi rewards travelers who want culture and beach in equal measure.

What's included in an Abu Dhabi package

Every package is tailored, but a typical Abu Dhabi itinerary includes:

  • Round-trip flights on major airlines, nonstop from selected East Coast gateways or with one connection
  • Four- or five-star hotel or beach resort on Yas Island, Saadiyat Island, the Corniche or Al Maryah Island, from well-known resort brands and independent hotels
  • Private transfers between Zayed International Airport and your hotel
  • Optional experiences: guided Grand Mosque and Louvre visit, multi-park Yas Island passes, a desert safari to the Liwa dunes, a Corniche dhow cruise or a day trip to Dubai
  • Breakfast included at most hotels, with half-board or all-inclusive options at beach resorts
  • Travel protection and a single US-based point of contact throughout

Rates depend on season and hotel category, so call for current pricing on your dates. Abu Dhabi combines easily with Dubai, Oman or a stopover in Doha.

Best time to visit Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi has a hot desert climate with almost no rain. The comfortable season runs from November through March, when daytime highs range from the mid 70s to mid 80s Fahrenheit and evenings on the Corniche are pleasant. December and January are the peak months, and the Grand Prix weekend in late autumn brings high hotel demand on Yas Island. April, May and October are hot but workable for pool and beach stays, while June through September brings highs above 105°F and high humidity, when indoor attractions and early mornings are the answer. Ramadan shifts earlier every year and reduces daytime dining options. Abu Dhabi is on Gulf Standard Time, UTC+4, eight to nine hours ahead of US Eastern Time.

Where to stay: areas and resort styles

Abu Dhabi's hotels cluster in a few distinct zones, and your choice shapes the trip.

  • Yas Island: family resorts and hotels beside the theme parks, water park, marina circuit and Yas Beach, ideal for kids and teens
  • Saadiyat Island: luxury beach resorts on a protected white-sand shore near the Louvre and the cultural district, favored by couples and honeymooners
  • The Corniche and downtown: high-rise hotels along the waterfront promenade, close to the Heritage Village, the palace and the city's restaurants
  • Al Maryah and Al Reem islands: modern business-district hotels with quick access to galleries and malls
  • Liwa and Al Ain: desert lodges and hot-spring resorts for a night away from the city

Tell your expert whether you want theme parks on the doorstep, a quiet beach or city views.

Things to do in Abu Dhabi

  • Visit the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque at sunset, when the domes and reflecting pools glow; modest dress is provided if needed
  • Spend a morning at the Louvre Abu Dhabi and stroll Saadiyat's cultural district
  • Ride the record-breaking roller coaster on Yas Island, cool off at the water park and watch a live show at the movie-themed park
  • Tour Qasr Al Watan, the presidential palace, and its library and gardens
  • Kayak through the mangroves at sunrise or take a Corniche dhow cruise
  • Drive to the Liwa oasis for the towering dunes of the Empty Quarter and a night in a desert camp
  • Explore Al Ain's UNESCO-listed oasis, forts and camel market

Getting there from the US

Zayed International Airport has nonstop service from New York, Washington, Chicago and Boston, with eastbound flight times of roughly 12 to 14 hours; West Coast travelers can expect roughly 16 hours nonstop or a one-stop itinerary through Europe. Abu Dhabi's airport also hosts a US Customs and Border Protection preclearance facility, so passengers on selected flights clear US immigration before departure and arrive home as domestic passengers. US passport holders can generally obtain a visa on arrival for stays of up to 30 days with a passport valid for six months, but verify entry requirements before travel.

Who this package suits

Abu Dhabi is a natural fit for families, thanks to Yas Island's parks and calm beaches, and for couples and honeymooners who prefer Saadiyat's quiet luxury. Seniors appreciate the modern infrastructure, accessible museums and gentle winter weather; ask about our senior travel reservations. Company retreats, reunions and wedding parties use our group travel flights for coordinated bookings. Solo travelers find the city safe and easy. For added comfort on the long flight, we can quote business class or first class fares within your package.
