What to do in
Abou Dabi ?

Today's Abu Dhabians may live in splendid villas and huge, avant-garde glass towers, but they haven't forgotten where they came from: the desert, the fiefdom of the ancient Bedouin tribes. These roots are still very strong, helping to keep many ancestral and picturesque traditions alive. They are proud to share them with their guests, who can try their hand at falcon hunting, desert life and taste their finely spiced cuisine, etc. However, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan's subjects do not live in a bubble. They are open minded and future-focussed and will guide you from museums to remarkable sites, to discover some, and conquer others.

    Everyone knows you should vary your pleasures. Abu Dhabi excels in this area. This emirate is full of gems to offer a holiday of a lifetime to its visitors of all ages and all walks of life. It’s a wonderful experience to enjoy as a couple. Here, you can dip into the culture, by visiting a century-old royal palace then a brand-new Louvre designed by Jean Nouvel, one of the finest architects of our time. Between two visits, you can indulge in more down-to-earth pleasures: trendy window-shopping, an introduction to local crafts, a tour of the Formula 1 circuit, quad biking in the dunes, or a lazy day on one of the chic beaches of Yas Island. But Abu Dhabi is also a great place to spend time with your family. Holidays are filled with spectacular theme parks, crazy desert escapades, buggy rides, visits to birds of prey, picnics on the sand, canoeing in the mangroves and breathtaking views from the panoramic terrace of a skyscraper. There really is something for all ages and tastes.

    • Visit the Louvre in Abu Dhabi. Much more than a subset of the famous Paris museum: this is a bridge between Western and Eastern cultures. Seven hundred works of art and masterpieces await you under the magical dome designed by Jean Nouvel.
    • Then, experience what life was like in the Rub’ el-Khali desert, one of the most inhospitable places on earth, with Heritage Village, a faithful recreation of a Bedouin camp with its goatskin tents, craftsmen and camels.
    • Admire the sunset from the Corniche, the favourite seafront promenade of the Abu Dhabians. Six kilometres of beaches for picnics, magnificent views of the skyscrapers, restaurants and children's play areas. You can walk or cycle along it.
    • Enjoy one of the most expensive coffees in the world: the golden cappuccino at the seven-star Emirates Palace hotel. What makes it special? Its surface is studded with small pieces of 24-carat gold leaf.
    • Steel yourself for a terrifying rollercoaster in a... Ferrari. It's one of nineteen attractions at Ferrari World, an incredible theme park dedicated to the famous Italian car manufacturer. For children of all ages.
    • Take a chic dip on one of the private beaches of Yas Island, the laid-back oasis for the local jet-set. Or if you prefer, drive a single-seater around the Formula 1 circuit, slide down the giant water slides at Yas Waterworld, take a ride on the carousel at Warner Bros World or go shopping at Yass Mall, the emirate's largest shopping centre.
    • Discover the city of the future with a visit to Masdar City. Just a few kilometres from Abu Dhabi, this totally eco-friendly city sets the example for low-carbon mobility, renewable energies, waste management, etc.
    • Spend a night in the desert, under a Bedouin tent amid the huge sand dunes. The firmament is magical, the silence spellbinding creating a truly mystical experience.
    • Enjoy a mocktail (a non-alcoholic cocktail) or a mint tea in the bar-restaurant on the 74th floor of one of the five Etihad Towers. As a bonus, the panoramic terrace provides 360-degree views of the city from a height of almost 300 metres.
    • Choose your fish from one of the stalls in the Al Mina fish souk and ask for it to be grilled straight away for a quick lunch. And if you fancy decking yourself out in gold, head to the Madinat Zayed souk. You’ll find seventy high quality goldsmiths competing for your custom.

  • Quelle est la meilleure saison pour visiter Abou Dabi ?

    On ne va pas vous mentir : l’été n’est pas la plus douce des saisons dans le golfe Persique. Même si la mer adoucit la pesanteur du ciel, les températures sont lourdes, autour de 40 °C. D’octobre à mai, la météo est plus clémente. Oui, mais voilà : Etihad ne vole vers l’émirat qu’entre juin et septembre. Que faire ? Sa valise ! Car, après tout, le soleil estival n’est guère plus mordant sur les côtes de l’océan Indien que sur les îles méditerranéennes. De plus, les endroits où trouver une fraîcheur salvatrice abondent : malls, musées et autres sites climatisés, parc aquatique, piscines, plages de sable fin… De quoi attendre sans s’ennuyer que s’installe la douceur du soir, propice à de jolies balades.
