5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent travel guide!

C. · December 1, 2022

Concise yet comprehensive, this impressive hand-size travel guide doesn't disappoint! The informative text and accompanying vivid images combine to create a very engaging, reader-friendly resource for someone interested in and/or planning to visit either of these locales.

2.0 out of 5 stars I left it at my hotel…

B. · December 10, 2023

This guidebook was the first one I ever left at my hotel. It was that bad! Outdated, doesn’t even get the basics well. No mention of very nice restaurants that serve typical Emirati food, or even Global Village. Don’t waste your money on this book. I was able to plan my trip better with Tripadvisor and YouTube.

2.0 out of 5 stars So much incorrect information re Abu Dhabi (idk re Dubai); poorly indexed and organized

A.C. · March 18, 2023

I'm sorry to leave a bad review for what must have initially taken a lot of work, but this guidebook, supposedly newly updated, has an astonishing amount of wrong information. (It's also poorly indexed and cross-referenced, and some of page references are wrong.)I'm just finishing, in March 2023, a three-week stay in Abu Dhabi (with a few days in Dubai). This book has so much incorrect information that there's no way it was correct even as of its publication date of Oct. 2022. I finally started putting post-it flags on pages where information was incorrect. For example, two of the four "water based adventures" listed in a sidebar are closed--one of them apparently for well over a year--and a third is very poorly reviewed on travel websites. Qasr Al Hosn is said to have free admission--it does not. For Yas Island, the first recommended restaurant is Tawa Bakery--but there is no Tawa Bakery on Yas Island.Finally, there is no mention at all of the Jubail Mangrove Park, which opened in 2021 and is lovely, or of SeaWorld Abu Dhabi--which is expected to open in April 2023 and will include the world's largest aquarium, with a strong research, rescue, and rehabilitation focus. Zero mention! Hard to fathom these gaps.

Good guide
