Top tips for Frankfurt to Abu Dhabi
See the city from the skies
In Frankfurt, visitors head to Main Tower for a viewpoint of the city. In Abu Dhabi, it’s all about the Observation Deck at 300.
Found on floor 74 of Jumeirah at Etihad Towers, it’s the highest vantage point in the city – and gives visitors spectacular views of the Corniche, Arabian Gulf and Abu Dhabi skyline.
Relax on the Corniche Beach
While visitors take to the River Main on a cruise if they’re looking for an experience on the water in Frankfurt, the coastal city of Abu Dhabi has the beautiful Corniche.
Sit back and take in the refreshing sea breeze, or hire a bike to cycle through some of the pristine parks along the Corniche waterfront.
