"Unmistakably Ferrari World The design of Ferrari World corresponds with my inclination that architecture should be inspirational from all angles. From the air, the structure is distinctly Ferrari red and undeniably represents the sleek brand. From the ground, its curves invite guests to enjoy the entertainment within. In a country where high end fast automobiles are prized, it’s fitting that Abu Dhabi has a luxury sports car theme park with the world’s fastest roller coaster, a tour of Italy, and kids zone all packed under the red roof."

"Like many Abu Dhabi tourist attractions, Ferrari World is world famous. And it's no wonder; after all, its enormous roof (more than 2.1 million square feet), which is inspired by the classic double-curve side profile of the Ferrari GT body, boasts the largest Ferrari logo ever created, and can be seen from the air upon landing in the capital. The park is packed with motorsport-themed rides and attractions, nicely complementing the annual Formula One Championship race that takes place on Yas Island every year." - Melinda Healy

"This massive amusement park dedicated to all things Ferrari opened on Yas Island in 2010. Nearly eight years later, the park is home to Formula Rossa, the world's fastest roller-coaster, Flying Aces, the world's tallest non-inverting loop, and the famous Ferrari driving experience, which gives visitors the chance to cruise Abu Dhabi's streets in a real Ferrari. The park is designed with children in mind, but even speed-freak adults will appreciate the rides and the attention to detail." - Jenna Scatena

Ferrari World Abu Dhabi – Plan Wisely for the Best Experience If you’re planning a one-day dedicated visit to Ferrari World, be prepared for some challenges. Many rides often go under maintenance or remain closed, and the waiting times can be extremely long, making it tough to cover everything in a day. If Ferrari World is your main attraction, consider allocating more than one day—especially if you also want to explore other Yas Island parks. Best Time to Visit Weekdays are a much better option than weekends, as crowds are relatively lower. Weekends can mean longer queues and even more wait time. Rides & Attractions The rides are fun, but some are slightly overhyped. If you’re an adult thrill-seeker, there are about five major rides that truly stand out. It’s a massive place, and to enjoy it fully, you need an active, energetic group—otherwise, the long waits might make the experience feel more tiring than exciting. Food & Refreshments One downside is the limited food options—you might not find anything particularly exciting or tasty. Stay hydrated, as waiting in long lines can be exhausting. Final Thoughts If you’re a Ferrari fan or a thrill-seeker, it’s worth the visit, but plan well to avoid disappointment. A full day is necessary to cover the key rides, but it can be exhausting if you’re not prepared. Strategize your visit, go on a weekday, and keep your expectations balanced for the best experience.

A fabulous experience at the Ferrari world. If you are going during vacations it’s better you choose express ticket. Apart from the fastest roller coaster there are also many other rides in the Ferrari world. A must visit ride is “The flying Aces”. Best practice would be you take the map and follow it in order so that you don’t miss out on any thing.. overall a great experience.

It's a lovely location. Children had a great time. The rides are different from those back home and are quite modern. The ride lineups are really lengthy, though. For each ride, you should budget at least forty-five minutes. We were unaware that some rides required pre-registration. similar to the go carts. There is also a buffet option. The view and location are also fantastic. In the house, sky driving is also an option. If you want to experience the entire spectacle, you will need a full day, so make appropriate plans.

Great way to spend a day. The rides were all thrilling, Mission Ferrari really messed a few of my friends up, in a good way 😅. I wasn’t a huge fan of the food, although my friends enjoyed it. We also bought the fast pass- there wasn’t a lot of rush when we went so it wasn’t really value; if you go during crowded periods, it can be value. Overall, great theme park - would go again.

The place is very nice. Kids truly enjoyed themselves. Food stalls available. Rides are very modern and different compared to back home. However the lines for the rides are quiet long. You need to estimate minimum 45 minutes for each ride. We bought the fast track line, but we were very disappointed as it served no purpose. They still made our kids wait and let people from the general line go first. Only once we spoke up, did they let our kids go. Other than that, they take advantage of the kids and still make them stand and wait. A total waste of money or just the staff is unfair. Some rides require you to register before hand, which we didn't know. Like the go carts. So we got to that ride about 4pm. Then was advised they fully booked as all tickets were already registered. I felt this information should have been advised prior.

Absolute must if you’re in Abu Dhabi. Go early on a Saturday morning and buy a quick pass! You can make a reservation for your spot on formula rossa too which I didn’t know about till I got to the park. Another tip is if your party is all adults, opt to go as single riders as you’ll get through the lines pretty quickly. The observation decks to watch the rides were really fun, but don’t skip out on the smaller rides too. I actually went alone, and had a blast so if you’re a solo traveler this is a great activity to do yourself.

It's a fun park, nice looking but a lot of the attractions you have to pay extra. If you want to drive a simulator ...extra... Also the waiting lines are very long, so they really push you in buying the quick lane pass. Because at the attractions, the quick lane goes much faster, because they pick faster people from this lane, leaving the normal line waiting... There should be a system, I understand that if you pay, you can go faster, but 1 quick 1 normal or something. Now it's 2 quick, 1 normal, making the lines enormous. Also a lot of the attractions had maintenance issues... Which I again understand, but why don't you put this on the website. Overall a bit disappointed, had more fun at the other 3 parcs. But it is a must see
