Important Information

  • The duration of the tour is 9 to 10 hours, depending on traffic. The duration of the tour includes all pickups and drop-offs Do not book a tour on a Friday if you have a flight that day, as drop-off times may vary due to traffic Women must wear long, loose clothing and ensure that their arms, legs, knees and heads are covered at all times Tattoos must be covered during the Mosque visit. An abaya with a scarf (long black attire) may be borrowed from the tour operator During presidential events, Qasr Al Watan Palace will be closed to the public without any prior announcement, which could result in its replacement by the Louvre Museum. Men should also ensure that their shoulders, legs, and knees are covered, (as there are no clothes available for men to borrow). If you're short on time and have a flight to catch later, consider booking a private tour.
