The no better or easier way to get to Expo 2020 than to ride by the new Dubai Metro expo edition. It takes you all the way up to the entrance of the Expo 2020 arena from the city of Dubai.

By Expo Rider and RTA buses

You can avail yourself the free rides by public transport to the event if you are an Expo 2020 registered visitor in Dubai. How cool is that? There is an array of buses totaling 203 arranged from different Emirates. Apart from this, the regular RTA buses also shuttle from different cities.

By taxi

No dearth of taxies in Dubai. From the 15000 thousand taxies including limousines, hope in any of them and they will drop you at the destination. Keep note of these apps to easily book taxis: Careem, Uber, or S'hail.

Visiting by own vehicles? There are 30,000 parking slots. Forget not where exactly you park the vehicles. From the parking slot, feeder buses ply to pick and drop. If you miss the drop-off point on the way back, you will be in the soup.

International airports are in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, and Ras Al Khaimah
