About This Tour
Farrari World
Ferrari World Abu Dhabi is the theme park that puts record breaking speed under a red roof the size of a small district. Sitting on Yas Island in the UAE capital, it’s one of the world’s largest indoor theme parks and the home of some of the planet’s fastest and most thrilling rides a bucket list day out for motorsport fans, adrenaline seekers, and families alike. Our day trip takes the logistics off your plate: hotel pickup in Dubai, a comfortable transfer to Yas Island, and your park entry arranged, so all you have to do is decide which ride to run to first.
Ferrari World Abu Dhabi is an 86,000 square metre indoor theme park on Yas Island. It opened in 2010 as the first Ferrari branded theme park in the world. The park has 6 roller coasters and Ferrari themed attractions.
Desert Leap Safari, a licensed Dubai based operator, runs this full day Dubai day trip. The package includes hotel pickup, park entry ticket, and return transfer.
What makes Ferrari World genuinely all ages, rather than thrill seekers only, is its range. The big coasters draw the adrenaline crowd, but the park also runs gentler family rides, interactive experiences, driving and racing themed attractions, live shows, and zones designed for younger children so a family with a mix of nervous and fearless members can spend a full day together, and everyone finds their level. It’s a park that rewards a whole day, which is exactly why a planned transfer beats improvising your own way there and back.
Who books this day? Thrill seekers and coaster enthusiasts chasing the record breakers, first. Motorsport and car loving fans, for whom the theme is the draw. And most of all families, since Yas Island is the UAE’s theme park capital and Ferrari World is its adrenaline anchor. That last point is the key to planning: Ferrari World sits beside Warner Bros World Abu Dhabi, and the Yas Water World waterpark, so families building a Yas Island theme park trip can pair parks across days and we can arrange the transfers for each.
The day pairs beautifully beyond the parks, too. Many families balance a high octane Ferrari World day with the grandeur of the Abu Dhabi City Tour and the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, or the art of the Louvre Museum Abu Dhabi, turning a single capital trip into a richly varied few days. And after the speed of the city’s parks, a slower desert evening the Evening Desert Safari back in Dubai makes a perfect counterweight.

Good To Know
What to Expect
The Early Start
Ferrari World rewards a whole day there’s far more than the headline coaster, and a planned round trip transfer means you’re not watching the clock for your own ride home. Arrive near opening to make the most of shorter early queues.
Indoor comfort.
Much of the park is climate controlled under its enormous roof, which makes it one of the few UAE theme park days that genuinely works in summer heat. Outdoor sections exist, so sun protection still earns its place.
Thrills and gentler rides together
The record breakers are intense real, serious speed but the park’s range means nervous riders and young children have plenty too. Plan to split up and regroup if your group’s appetites differ; it’s that kind of park.
Height and ride rules
Expect a genuine chill at the sunrise stop from November to March 10–14°C is normal, so bring a proper layer. By the camel ride you’ll be peeling it off. In summer, this tour and the Morning Desert Safari are the only desert windows we’d honestly recommend.
Ticket strategy
On busy days, queue skipping premium tickets can transform how many rides you fit in. Tell us your date and group and we’ll advise whether standard or premium suits sometimes the upgrade is well worth it, sometimes it isn’t.
Photography.
Phones and cameras are welcome around the park; the big coasters have their own on ride photo systems (sold inside). The red roof and themed zones are endlessly shootable between rides.
