Abra Ride at Dubai Creek

An abra ride in Dubai is a water trip that:

It is taken on a traditional wooden Arabian boat with a canopy that can hold up to 20 passengers.
Allows you to enjoy the cityscapes from a different perspective.
Provides an excellent opportunity to appreciate the features of the old way of getting around for locals.

The time of one abra trip is about 15 minutes.

Abras still operate across Dubai Creek and are used as public transport like taxis. These boats are maneuverable and comfortable. They carry passengers on four routes passing through the Deira, Bur, Festival City, and Al Jadaf districts.

The transport operates according to a timetable, from 06:00 to 24:00. The fare is 1 dirham. Air-conditioned bras operate between the Festival City and Al Jadaf stations for a more comfortable ride. A ride on such a boat will cost 2 dirhams. Tickets can be purchased directly from the abra driver.

The price of an abra tour is $20
