Abu Dhabi – top places to visit!

July 5, 2016 by Margaret Scott

How to spend a day in Abu Dhabi?

visiting the top views is a great way to start…

Views On Top recently had a 15 hour layover in Abu Dhabi and did our best to experience the city. Starting with breakfast at the Hyatt Capital Gate, the angular building is a site to see and the view over the river truly wonderful with a delicious meal. Described as ‘The Best Mediterranean Restaurant in Abu Dhabi’ 18 Degrees offers an outstanding dining experience that is unique in Abu Dhabi, using simple flavours to enhance the inherent freshness of locally sourced produce.

Next stop Jumeirah at Etihad Towers Hotel, the Observation Deck at 300 offers amazing views over the city and Arabian Gulf. Beautiful buildings, wonderful views! Entrance is AED75 (US$ 20.5), with AED 50 (US$ 13.6) redeemable as Food & Beverage vouchers. Guests staying at the Jumeirah at Etihad Towers and children under four enter free.

Next stop? the Marina Eye Wheel… with fabulous views over the marina and nearby shopping centre. The rather quirky tower has a cafe at the top but its windows don’t give the best views over the marina…

Last stop, who could resist the world’s fastest roller coaster?

Ferrari World’s Formula Rossa is an absolute MUST DO for anyone who loves adrenalin and a ‘once off’ experience.

Strap in, put your goggles on and prepare to be blasted 240km/h in 4.9 seconds. After scaling heart-racing heights of 52 metres and with the adrenalin rush of 4.8Gs riding high, you’ll cross the finish feeling like a true Scuderia Ferrari champion. Highly recommended!!

Enjoying the views at the Grand Canyon

June 1, 2014 by Margaret Scott

View of the Grand Canyon

A highlight of any trip to Las Vegas is a visit to enjoy the heights of the nearby Grand Canyon. There are many different ways to explore the Canyon depending on your available time and budget, including hiring a car, taking a bus, helicopter or airplane.

With limited time available, I opted for a 5 Star Helicopter Tours trip that would fly below the rim and take me to SkyWalk, a horseshoe-shaped, cantilevered platform that hovers over the canyon on the west rim and affords stunning views into the canyon below. [Read more…]
