Dubai
the UAE

Dubai is a dream city! It is a modern business centre with world-famous mirrored scyscrapers, large shopping malls, and beaches with golden sand and evergreen palm trees. Business people from all over the world come here to make some good deals, while tourists strive to visit this place to enjoy the gentle sun of the Arab Emirates. And it is Dubai which has the largest airport in the Oriental world – Dubai Airport which serves more than 70 million passengers a year. If you are arriving in Dubai, then you should definitely read our helpful KiwiTaxi Airguides which will tell you how to easily travel from Dubai Airport to any other city of the UAE or some nearby countries. Here are five reasons why you should see our Airguides.

Reason 1. Dubai timetable

In our Airguides, we’ve prepared the most detailed timetable for all routes from the airport to the city centre, from Dubai to Abu Dhabi, and so on. Why is the actual timetable needed? To carefully plan your travel: not to wait for a necessary route after arriving, to know in advance that some or other means of transport is not available at night, and plan all transport changes beforehand. Also, as in any other city of the UAE, transport frequency in Dubai depends on the season. In summer when it is too hot there, regular shuttles become less frequent as a large number of tourists is not expected. And, on the contrary, in winter they become more frequent to cope with the increasing passenger traffic.

Reason 2. Dubai transport

In KiwiTaxi Airguides, we not only tell you about Dubai transport, but also show it – all pictures provided in Airguides show the real appearance of the vehicle you choose. Besides, we describe in detail the transport comfort level: sizes of luggage compartments, soft seats, and some special functions such as WiFi or child seats availability. After reading our guide, you will be able to imagine a vehicle and realize if it really suits you.

Reason 3. Trip peculiarities in Dubai

Did you know that families with small children and aged tourists are not advised to start their trip from the bus station as they will have to wait for a bus in the heat and that can have a bad influence on their health? Or, for example, that it is difficult to move inside Dubai metro with large luggage, because passages there can be quite narrow and there are no areas for large suitcases at all. Did you know that you can get from Dubai Airport late at night only by taxi or pre-booked transfer or, otherwise, you will have to wait until morning? We’ve brought together all this useful information in our Airguides to warn you and help you choose the right transport.

Reason 4. Learning something new about the routes

We try to keep all the routes actual, check if there are some new forms of transport on them and whether they suit our readers. But don’t forget that Dubai is a very fast developing city. When it is needed – for example, in case there is a huge tourist traffic, – they introduce some new metro lines or bus routes, as well as toll roads for taxis and transfers. Our aim is to monitor new ways of transportation and tell you about them as long as this information is actual.

No matter which way of travelling from or to Dubai you choose, we wish you a magic journey and lots of unforgettable emotions!
