Khaled used WhatsApp to contact us before the trip and was kind enough to pick us up from our hotel, drive us around Abu Dhabi and drop us back. The tour/night out lasted about 4 hours but Khaled would have stayed out longer with us if we wanted! Khaled is a friendly, thoughtful host and took us to places off the tourist trail that we probably wouldn’t have found or visited. The highlight was the Fish Market, where we ate some of the best king prawns 🍤! We also visited some of Khaled’s favourite shawarma and falafel places and the Date Market plus a brief car tour of the Corniche area. Overall, we visited 5 places, and could have finished off with dessert and coffee ☕️ at 2 more, so quite a lot of food! Ideally, would have been good if Khaled had told us at the beginning how many places we would eat at so we could have paced ourselves better, or been given slightly smaller portions, especially at the end! Overall, a good first night in Abu Dhabi doing something off the tourist trail. 👍🏻😀Enjoyable first night in Abu Dhabi!

We booked a 4 hour tour starting at 9am. The day before our tour Khaled arranged for a colleague to take over instead. This was a big disappointment as I had watched the guides’ videos to choose someone we thought would be good. He told the new guide the wrong time so we ended up waiting an extra 30 minutes. The colleague was friendly enough, but didn’t really act as a guide; he was really just a chauffeur. He drove us to the mosque, “palace”, and date market. We missed the heritage village because he was late and hadn’t checked the time. Most of our “tour” was spent in the car, and Mohammed didn’t really provide any information during that time. He also rushed us through the mosque and shared very little about it - we learned more from the few signs we read as we were whisked through. Overall this was a waste of money. We could’ve paid less to taxi to the locations. This will be our last booking via With Locals as 3 out of 4 times we’ve used the platform we’ve been disappointed. It really seems to be a scam.Bait and switch?

Khaled is a very good guide that i truly feel he treat my family like a long time friend. He showed us the attractions as planned while not rush us into finish anything, he made the day as flexible as possible which we really appreciate. We had fun with the attractions and had some good local bites, we enjoyed his knowledge on the city and his good company for the day.Guide like a true friend

We had a great day in Abu Dhabi as Khaled created a tour according to our needs with children. We saw the most important sights, some hidden places and some places we suggested because we wanted to add them to our tour. We highly recommend booking a tour with Khaled! Perfect private tour with Khaled

Khaled was a fantastic guide, knew all the popular local spots around the city. The tour was comprehensive yet also efficient as we were able to taste the many different foods. Khaled himself is also very friendly and responsive to any questions. Amazing experience and would love to do it again !Amazing food tour

Khaled picked us up from our hotel, and from the first encounter made us feel welcome as he introduced us to the unique food of this region. We visited the places on our wish list - the dates market, and the fish market - and other local tasting of his suggestion. Khaled also picked up on our interest in the meat market, so we had a quick visit in there too. It's right opposite the dates market. We were able to purchase quality dates at a discounted price thanks to Khaled, and the restaurant where we dined at the fish market cooked fresh seafood of our choosing. We then moved on to three other local places, each doing their one speciality "The Best" according to Khaled, and there was no doubt of the flavours, cleanliness and quality. We were made to feel very welcome at every establishment. Without local knowledge you cannot find such places, so in every way the tour met all our expectations. I would have no hesitation in recommending that you choose Khaled as your food guide in Abu Dhabi. We have been overwhelmingly struck by the welcoming friendliness of the people in Abu Dhabi, and felt safe every day. Hospitality personified

On this Saturday Khāled collected me from my hotel and we tackled the cuisine of Abu Dhabi. Khaled was a kind, polite and generous host and took me to many places only the locals would know. The food selection was excellent. My only complaint would be that there was so much food. And I wanted more because we did not finish sampling all the items! And I didn’t have breakfast! I would highly recommend the tour. I couldn’t eat anything more!
