Biking Tours to Yas Island – Exploring Abu Dhabi

Yas Island is an island located near Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Although not very large in size (the island is only twenty five square kilometres in area) it is a highly popular tourist spot within the country. This can be attributed to the large number of attractions found here. The list includes Yas Marina Circuit, a Grand Prix Track and several theme parks. One of the best ways to explore Yas Island is by bike. Not only is it fun and easy, it is also the healthiest option.

Fun Ride Tours conducts great bike tours of the island, focusing on all the main attractions. They provide all the needed equipment including helmets as well as an English speaking guide. One tour takes place in the day time between 9.30 am and 11.00 am. The route is roughly nine kilometres long and gives riders an overview of Yas Island as well as quick stops at the Yas Marina Circuit and the Yas Links Golf Course. The other tour features the same stops but takes place in the night. Providing delightful night views of the area’s popular attractions it is the better option for those who do not want to contend with the daytime temperatures.

Noukhada’s Cycle Yas Island is another good place to try. They also provide cycle tours of the island and give a discount for those who bring their own gear. The tour stops are pretty much the same and the tour itself is quite informative and interesting. Tourists planning on taking the tour should keep the sunny weather in mind. One should always carry a tube of sunscreen along and remember to stay hydrated.
