A museum telling the story of Abu Dhabi and its people, Qasr Al Hosn includes Abu Dhabi’s first permanent structure, a coral and sea stone watchtower, built to protect the settlement of Abu Dhabi established on the island in the 1760s. Over the centuries, it has been home to the ruling family, the seat of government, a consultative council and a national archive; it now stands as the nation’s living memorial and the narrator of Abu Dhabi’s history through objects, artifacts, and archival material.
One of the best sights that truly represents the UAE’s past elegantly. Good place for history lovers.
This oldest stone structure in Abu Dhabi is magnificent. Its traditional and modern architecture, museum, inner fort, outer palace, and original watchtower are great to admire.
Qasr Al Hosn is a beautiful structure steeped in history. It is one of those historical landmarks in Abu Dhabi, UAE that is must-visit to look and rejoice at the Emirati past.
It is a great historical landmark in Abu Dhabi that is worth a visit to understand UAE’s culture and history. Visiting Qasr Al Hosn is like reliving the region’s past.
I highly recommend the Qasr Al Hosn tour if you are looking for something different. This structure is home to the history of Abu Dhabi and was even home to the seat of power. The Outer Palace and Inner Fort are fabulous and the Qasr Al Museum was brilliant. It;s nice to see such wonderful heritage places still relevant and thriving.
Though my kids weren’t keen on it, by the end of the Qasr Al Hosn tour, they were the ones who were the most fascinated by this place. Hopefully, this sparks a thirst for history and knowledge. Qasr Al Hosn is a wonderful place!
Rayna Tours had a great job with this tour. My family and I had a good trouble-free experience and everything went well.
Take the Qasr Al Hosn tour from Dubai to see a whole new side of Abu Dhabi. I was amazed by this tour.
Nerve thought there would be such a peaceful location amidst Abu Dhabi’s hustle and bustle. In the Qasr Al Hosn tour, we got to see the palace, fort, watch tower, and museum. The Museum holds some ancient stuff that is quite amazing. We all had a great day enjoying this gorgeous place.
My wife is a history buff so we did the Qasr Al Hosn tour. It was quite a surprise for me when I learned how small Abu Dhabi city used to be. This watchtower was the first structure of the city. My wife thoroughly enjoyed the museum. All in all, this is a good tour and I would recommend it to all.
Had taken the Qasr Al Hosn tour from Dubai. The Rayna Tour drivers arrived on time and took us safely there. The place is huge and impressive. Saw many wonderful historical and traditional things. I even loved the presentation and story of Abu Dhabi.
Thank you Rayna Tours for suggesting the Qasr Al Hosn tour. We all had a great time at the palace and the museum is quite educational. We saw artefacts from 6000 BC. and learned how Abu Dhabi became what it is today. It was truly remarkable.
I tried the Qasr Al Hosn tour recently and I was amazed by the place. The watchtower, the inner fort and the outer palace are so beautiful and well-maintained. It was a good experience.
The Qasr Al Hosn tour from Dubai is a great way to see the history of Abu Dhabi and UAE. The stone structure is beautiful and there is a certain calmness to the place. I liked this tour, especially the museum which was full of many historical items. Rayna Tours expertly arranged all the tickets and transfers from Dubai.
This was the best trip we enjoyed from Dubai. The Qasr Al Hosn is one of the oldest buildings in Abu Dhabi. It is worth visiting to learn the history of Abu Dhabi.
Fantastic collections at the Qasr Al Museum. We got to see several artifacts and other historical things dating back to centuries.
