Overview
Dubai, one of the seven emirates and most populous city of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is to the Middle East what Hong Kong is to Asia: a capitalist jewel buzzing with activity. Most visitors to the region stop here for at least a day to browse the shops, eat in the restaurants and soak up the atmosphere of a city oozing wealth and a general air of self-satisfied confidence. Split into two by a long creek, a water taxi is an ideal starting point for orientation purposes and an opportunity to admire the modern, palatial architecture, the hallmark of a successful Arab state. There isn´t much here that isn´t glistening new.
 
Distance from Airport
Dubai International Airport (DXB) is 4km (three miles) from Dubai city centre and 170km (105 miles) from Abu Dhabi.
 
Getting Downtown Dubai
Airport buses, with air conditioning and extra luggage space, leave for Al Subkha (bus 401) and Al Ghubaiba (bus 402) bus stations every 30 minutes daily 0600-2200 (journey time- 20 minutes). From the bus stations there are regular transfers to all parts of the city. The bus stations are located opposite both terminals.

Prepaid airport taxis must be booked in the arrival hall. These charge a fixed rate for destinations in the city centre (journey time - 10 minutes).
