| 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.
