Driving Tips for Dubai

Once you pick up your car rental in Dubai, you can get on the road right away. Study these tips and tricks to help your drive go smoothly:

  • Toll Roads: Dubai has several toll roads, including Al Garhoud Bridge, and all tolls are collected electronically via a sticker called Salik.
  • Right on Red: In Dubai, do not turn right on red unless there is a yield sign at that particular intersection.
  • Keep Calm: Swearing or gesturing at other drivers is punishable by public indecency laws in Dubai, so it’s best to keep your cool.
  • Use Local Apps: RTA Smart Drive is an app specifically designed to help you navigate through the roads and traffic in Dubai, so it’ll be the most reliable.

These and our other tips for driving in Dubai will be useful during your rental period.

Best places to visit in and around Dubai

With a rental car in Dubai, you’ll have the freedom and flexibility to explore on your own schedule. Don’t miss these popular attractions:

  • Dubai Mall: This ultra-modern shopping mall is one of the city’s main attractions and is the second-largest shopping mall in the entire world. There are multiple parking areas available in the mall.
  • Al Fahidi Historical Neighborhood: If you want to see what Dubai was like before all the modern skyscrapers, this is the place to go. Its construction dates back to the 1890s.
  • Day trip to Abu Dhabi: The UAE’s other major city is only a 1.5-hour drive in your rental car in Dubai. Abu Dhabi is located on an island in the Persian Gulf and is home to modern attractions.

We had a fantastic experience at Sixt Dubai! Muhammad Mustafa was exceptional. He was kind, friendly, and engaging. He made our rental process seamless and enjoyable. Our trip was a joy, and we received a Mercedes CLS ready for pick-up right at the terminal. Would definitely return!
