What is the best way to get around the city?
Dubai offers a variety of ways to get around, and each one adds its own charm to your journey. Dubai Metro is ultra—modern and fully automated, it will quickly take you to the main attractions, and the windows offer impressive views of the city. “Taxis” are available everywhere and relatively inexpensive, drivers are often talkative and can share local tips. For a more authentic experience, try the Abra, a traditional wooden boat that will ferry you across Dubai Creek for just one dirham. And if you feel like an adventurer, rent a car and explore the city on your own, but be prepared for heavy traffic and confusing interchanges.
