How to Get to Abu Dhabi from Dubai
By Car / Taxi
The most convenient option. 140km via E11 highway — about 90 minutes. Taxis cost AED 250–350 one way. Uber and Careem also available. Renting a car gives flexibility to visit multiple attractions.
Yas Island is 80km (60 min) from Dubai — closer than central Abu Dhabi.
By Bus
Dubai RTA buses run from Al Ghubaiba Station to Abu Dhabi central bus station every 30 minutes. Journey time: ~2 hours. Cost: AED 25 one way with Nol card. Then take a local taxi to attractions.
Most affordable option but slowest. Not ideal for a day trip.
FlyMoreMe Transfer

What Our Customers Say
Real reviews from travelers who booked Dubai attractions with FlyMoreMe Tourism LLC.
Booked Burj Khalifa SKY tickets through FlyMoreMe and saved AED 60 per person vs the gate price. The sunset slot was fully booked on the official site, but they had availability. E-ticket arrived in 5 minutes. Skip-the-queue entry worked perfectly — we were up at Level 148 in 20 minutes.

Booked a 3-attraction package for my family of 5 — Aquaventure, evening desert safari, and Dubai Frame. FlyMoreMe coordinated everything perfectly. The desert safari BBQ dinner was halal and excellent. Kids loved the Leap of Faith slide. Total saving was around AED 800 vs booking separately. Highly recommend for families visiting Dubai.

We visited Dubai in July and IMG Worlds was perfect — fully air-conditioned indoor park. FlyMoreMe got us tickets at AED 184 vs AED 335 at the gate. The WhatsApp support team helped us choose the best day (Tuesday = shortest queues). My 8-year-old loved the Cartoon Network zone. Will book again for our next Dubai trip.

Day trip from Dubai to Ferrari World — FlyMoreMe arranged transport + tickets. Formula Rossa was incredible (240 km/h in 4.9 seconds!). The team picked us up at 8am, we were at Yas Island by 9:15. Everything was seamless. The combo with Warner Bros. World saved us AED 200. Best day of our Dubai holiday.

As a Dubai resident, I've booked Wild Wadi tickets through FlyMoreMe three times now for visiting family. Always cheaper than the gate, always instant confirmation. The Jumeirah Sceirah slide is a must-try. They even helped us get a group discount for 12 people. Professional and reliable — the go-to agency for attraction tickets in Dubai.

Booked a 2-park pass for Dubai Parks and Resorts through FlyMoreMe. The combo ticket saved us 25% vs individual bookings. Motiongate's Hunger Games ride was thrilling, and LEGOLAND was perfect for my 6-year-old. FlyMoreMe's WhatsApp team answered all my questions about height restrictions before booking. Excellent service.
