As well as Dubai International
Airport, there are other methods
of transpot into Dubai. The
UAE road network is inconsistent
but is reasonable into Dubai
city center. Rail is also
an option.
Abras
on the Creek, Dubai An abra
is a water taxi and they have
been used as a way of getting
across the Creek for many
years. This is still an effective
means of transportation for
many in Dubai. It costs just
50 fils one way.
Arriving
by Air
Dubai
International Airport is a
busy airport that serves Dubai
with both international and
domestic air services.
Getting
Around Dubai
For
getting around Dubai there
is a fairly good bus service,
mini buses and taxis. Most
people who are staying for
some time make sure they have
access to a vehicle, as there
isn't a reliable public transport
system beyond the city. Car
hire is not too expensive,
the roads are in good condition
but the rules of the road
are not always carefuly observed.
Be very careful until you
are used to it and be aware
that roundabouts are particularly
hazardous. as are wandering
camels.
