In 1947, after years of honing Alfa Romeos into the perfect gentleman’s racing machine, Enzo Ferrari created the first car to host the prancing horse badge as the Ferrari 125 S rolled off its production line in the small Italian town of Maranello. Ever since, the Ferrari stable has been churning out some of the most remarkable machines in the world of automobiles and motorsport. A translation of this desire into the world of public recreation, in true Ferrari style, is the Abu Dhabi Ferrari World. Today, you can purchase Ferrari World tickets and experience this symbol of Italian flair, advanced engineering, exclusivity and luxury at Ferrari’s first and only foray yet into the world of theme parks, Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi.

Ferrari World Reviews
The Good
1. Not only does Ferrari World allow you to have a thrilling day out, full of adventure rides and interactive experiences, but also get into the history of Ferrari, experience what it must feel to drive a Ferrari and get up close and personal with some of the most iconic cars in the history of automobiles and motorsport.
2. Ferrari World has two record breaking roller coasters within its grounds that are a must try. Formula Rossa, the fastest roller coaster in the world and Flying Aces, the roller coaster with the tallest non-inverting loop in the world.
3. Located across the street on Yas Island is Yas Waterworld, one of the most popular waterparks in the region. This makes Yas Island quite a leisure ground and presents a wonderful opportunity to visit both parks - especially when you book a combo pass, which will allow to save a lot of money as opposed to visiting the parks separately.
The Bad
For those staying or living in Dubai, you’ll have to account for transportation time since the park is actually in Abu Dhabi. But with that being said, it is only about a 50 minute drive to Ferrari World from Dubai.
Its an awesome amusement place to b at. Wonderful experience on the worlds fastest ride Formula Rossa. Went almost 8 times...
By far the best rides I have done here. That 60 seconds fastest ride was the unique experience. The whole place is unique and worth remembering.
