The rental car trip through Abu Dhabi and the UAE – preparations

If the journey is not only to the fascinating city of Abu Dhabi, but also to include some of the attractions in the surrounding area and in the other six emirates, a rental car is recommended. On the other hand, if the holiday is to be spent alone in Abu Dhabi, it is wiser to use the cheap taxis – so inexperienced people avoid the tiresome search for parking spaces and maneuvering in the lively city traffic.

Off to Abu Dhabi!

The rental car holiday in the UAE should be well prepared. A detailed travel guide and up-to-date maps help you plan the individual route. It is important to know how many kilometers you want to cover per day, without the long stay in the car for drivers and passengers is perceived as annoying. Leaving the booking of hotels, each marking the end of the day’s stage, in the hands of a travel agent saves you from having to deal with problems.

A suitable rental car for the trip through the United Arab Emirates can be booked online before the trip starts and can be picked up directly at the respective destination airport, for example at Abu Dhabi Airport. Even those who are spontaneous can find a cheap car hire offer, because at Abu Dhabi Airport all international car rental companies have a stand. However, it is quicker and less stressful to select the car well in advance – on request with the help of the travel agency.

Which car is best for the Abu Dhabi round trip?

For the selection of the vehicle, it makes sense to experience the journey through Abu Dhabi or the other Emirates in the mind’s eye. Of course, all cars rented in the UAE are equipped with air conditioning, as the weather in Abu Dhabi simply makes this feature necessary. Nevertheless, the most diverse types are available and regardless of the preference of the Emiratis for stately Jeeps and smaller sedans can be rented. How the vehicle should be designed in terms of size and equipment depends not only on personal budget, but also on other factors:

– How many people and luggage should be able to comfortably sit in the vehicle?
– Can your own navigation system be supplemented with appropriate maps?
– Is a detour planned on unpaved roads (Attention: danger to life!)?
– How long are the respective routes that have to be covered daily??
– Offers car rental services such as pick-up and drop-off at the hotel?
– Is the air conditioning powerful enough for crossing the desert areas?

International driving license

The same rules apply to the rental of a vehicle in Abu Dhabi and the other Emirates as in most other countries worldwide and an international driver‘s license is officially not required, according to the Foreign Office. Although some tourists report that some rental car providers still ask for this document – but this has never happened to me. I had already rented a rental car in Dubai or Abu Dhabi four times, and the question of an international document has never been raised.

Clear, If you want to be on the safe side, you should have the international driver’s license issued for your Abu Dhabi tour with the competent driving license authority. After a few weeks, the three-year note is available for pickup for a fee. Who would like to save the transition to the office, inquires best with his car rental provider according to its terms. Nota bene: Strictly speaking, the international driver’s license is just a translation document, which is why it is only valid in the United Arab Emirates together with the EU driver’s license.

Travel preparations of a mental nature

Of course you should not only the phase of car rental run as smoothly as possible, but your entire holiday in Abu Dhabi. Therefore, please note that there are certain rules in the Muslim Emirates that you should follow to not offend. So you not only spared derogatory glances, but in the worst case, also an early vacation end at a police station.

Surely you have already heard or read about it, what is forbidden in Abu Dhabi everything. For that reason, I have summarized some rules that repeatedly cause question marks among travelers: May I be allowed in Abu Dhabi …?
