Abras

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.

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.
