The official Visit Dubai tourism portal lists the metro, tram, buses, taxis and water transport among the ways to get around. No single option suits every journey: convenience depends on where you start and finish.
To get to know a neighbourhood, check the actual route from home to the station, shops and waterfront. Look beyond map distances to crossings, pavements and hot weather.
Before travelling, check the route, timetable and fare rules on the transport operator’s official resources. Independently test journey times advertised in a listing at the time of day you will actually travel.
