Start your day at Ferrari World, located on Yas Island, where speed, engineering, and entertainment collide. Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie or a casual explorer, there’s something here that will leave your heart racing.

• Flying Aces: Experience the steepest rollercoaster loop on the planet
• Turbo Track: Launch through the iconic red roof in a zero-gravity moment
• Family Zone: From Junior GT driving experiences to interactive exhibitions

The park is fully indoor, making it perfect year-round. And with this combo ticket, you get full-day access to the rides, shows, and exhibitions — no compromises.
 

💡 Tip: Arrive early and head to Formula Rossa first — it’s popular for a reason.

Afternoon: Step Back in Time at Qasr Al Hosn 🏰

After your thrill-filled morning, unwind with a visit to Qasr Al Hosn, the historic heart of Abu Dhabi. Located in the city center, this 18th-century watchtower is more than just a photo opportunity — it’s a living story of the UAE's transformation from a tribal settlement to a modern nation.

What to explore:

• The Fort: Once the home of Abu Dhabi’s ruling family
• House of Artisans: Learn about traditional crafts like al-sadu weaving, pottery, and embroidery
• The Exhibition Centre: Interactive timelines, archival images, and rare artifacts
• Cultural Performances: Occasionally hosted in the courtyard for a deeper cultural immersion

With this combo, entry to Qasr Al Hosn is included at no extra cost, giving you the chance to engage with the city’s past without stretching your travel budget.

🎫 Why This Combo Works

You could visit these two attractions separately — but combining them into one day unlocks far more value:

• Save on individual ticket prices
• Seamless mobile access — no paper tickets required
• Enjoy two completely different experiences in a single itinerary
• Perfect for couples, families, and culture-curious travelers

This combo also makes the most of your time in Abu Dhabi, especially if you’re on a tight schedule or exploring the city as a day trip.
