Transportation

Getting around in Dubai
Dubai has an extensive network of travel options including rental car options, metro rail or taxis.

Travel by car
Rent a car
To rent a car, you need an international driver’s licence, passport, credit card and third-party insurance. Once you’re on the open road, take a drive out to Dubai’s mountain town of Hatta.
Want to get in on the luxury car action? One of Dubai’s favorite past times is cruising down the streets in style in a car that turns heads; opt for a Bentley with Paddock Rent A Car or a Bugatti with Apex Luxury Car Hire.
Looking for ultimate flexibility? Try a pay-as-you-go car rental app, like UDrive or ekar.

Hail a taxi.
If you prefer to schedule a ride, you can call for a Dubai taxi pick-up at +971 4 208 0808. While taxis are reasonably priced in Dubai, the price per kilometre does change depending on a few factors, like tolls or the time of day.

If you prefer to use an app to book a ride, Uber or Careem are available. Feeling extravagant? Book an Uber chopper for a bird’s-eye commute.

Train service
Dubai metro
Dubai’s metro is a world-class, fully-automated, driverless railway system. Most of the metro rides above ground provide a great view while you travel to landmarks like the Dubai Mall, Dubai Marina, the Gold Souk and Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).

Dubai metro tickets must be purchased in the form of a Nol card — which can also be used to pay for bus, tram and taxi fare — and rides can cost as little as AED 3. Discover the city by its metro stations or use the journey planner app, Wojhati, to make the most of your Dubai itinerary.

Dubai’s taxis are available to hail nearly everywhere at just about any time, day or night.

The Dubai Tram runs from Al Sufouh to Jumeirah Beach Residences in 42 minutes. Running on the Nol card, the tram provides access to destinations like Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Lakes Towers and more.

Dubai World Trade Centre Parking Restrictions

There is no charge for this permit; however, all requests for boarding space are on a first-come, first-served basis.
