Visit Ferrari World

Q: We will be travelling to Dubai next month and are particularly interested in visiting Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi. Do you think it is worthwhile and how would we organise it? - Farouk Kadwa A: You don't have to be a fan of the Ferrari brand to enjoy this attraction, which is the largest indoor amusement park in the world. It has more than 20 rides and is home to the world's fastest roller coaster. Other attractions include a carousel featuring only cars, an interactive 3-D show which follows the life of a Ferrari engineer, a driving school for children, a virtual tour of the factory and a spaceshot tower which launches riders over 62m up and out of the building. The cost of a day pass is AED225 (R500). It is located on Yas island, only 90kms from Dubai. You can either join an organised excursion or take your own transport or taxi there (www.ferrariworldabudhabi.com).
