Arty disposition

A repository for art and its contemplation, visiting Abu Dhabi without scouring the Louvre does not bear thinking about. In keeping with its French origins, the largest art museum in the region offers a way to bend space and time, through a wander past artefacts and exhibits. Until April 7, you can even trace the origins of the Paris-based museum — the show is called From One Louvre to Another — and how it came to be.

On this tour, wear comfortable shoes and head to the museum for about two hours with your guide. After your stroll, you will be led to the famed Grand Mosque. This mosque can accommodate about 40,000 people at a time — big and beautiful, typical. Firm: Ocean Air Travels Price: Dh334.22, including a pick-up from Dubai
