Description

Discover the beautiful city of Abuja on a full-day tour. Explore the city's highlights, including the National Mosque, the Ushafa pottery village, and the Jabi Boat Club. Start your day with a comprehensive tour of the National Mosque with an experienced guide. Learn about the beautiful architectural design, norms, and some basic teachings. Take as many photos as you like while on the tour. Next, explore the large monolith, an igneous intrusion composed of gabbro and granodiorite located just at the borderline between Abuja and Niger state. It is often referred to as 'the gateway to Abuja from Suleja'. The rock is unique with an impression of a human face seen on the rock. The rock majestically presides over its surrounding landscape. Visit the rock that is said to catch fire during the rainy season. Visit the Ushafa pottery village, a center where the making of traditional pottery can be observed. The center has become a famous stop for visiting heads of state and its pots are of commercial importance. If you like decor, then you just might grab one or two pots as souvenirs. The arts and crafts village is likened to a walk into a haven of creativity. Established in 2003 for the exhibition of Arts and Crafts during the commonwealth meeting for various heads of government, the Abuja Arts and Craft has since become a major tourist attraction in Abuja. Enjoy the sights of the rustic setting with thatched houses and hut-like structures and a congregation of talented artists. Finish your day at the Jabi Boat Club, designed to offer water-based recreational facilities. Enjoy a 15-minute boat cruise on the Jabi Lake and settle in for a sumptuous sea meal to mark the end of your trip (optional).
