Getting to Ferrari World from Dubai

Yas Island sits on the Dubai side of Abu Dhabi, so it is closer than most people expect: about an hour and a quarter from Downtown Dubai on the E11, and less from Dubai Marina or Jebel Ali. Ferrari World, Warner Bros. World, Yas Waterworld and SeaWorld are all within a few minutes of each other.

The common ways to get there are a shared coach or shuttle sold with tickets, a taxi each way, or your own vehicle. For one or two adults the shared option is fine. For a family, a school or a team day, your own transport makes the day easier from the first minute: one pick-up at your door, no queue for a shuttle back, and the bags stay in the vehicle.

Prices depend on the date and group size. Get yours in a minute.

Two ways to book it

Drop-off and collection: we take you to the park in the morning and come back to collect you at the time you choose. This suits a single park day when nobody needs the vehicle in between.

Driver all day: the vehicle stays with you. This suits two parks in one day, a park plus dinner on Yas, or a group that wants to go back to the vehicle for lunch or a change of clothes after Yas Waterworld. The quote shows both options so you can compare.

Timings that work

Parks open in the late morning and close in the evening, and the hours change by season and day, so check each park’s official website for your date.

A typical plan from Dubai: pick-up 09:00 to 09:30, arrival around opening time, collection 30 minutes after closing so nobody rushes the last ride. Home by 22:00 to 23:00 on most days.

For two parks in one day, start with the water park in the morning heat and finish at Ferrari World or Warner Bros. World, which are indoors. The driver moves you between them in a few minutes.

Which vehicle

A family of four or five fits a 7-seater SUV or a 7-seater van with room for a pushchair. For two families together, a 13-seater van.

School groups and team days travel in a 30-seater bus, a 35-seater coach or a 50-seater coach. Coaches use the parks’ coach drop-off areas, and the driver waits at the coach park.

School and company groups

Yas parks are among the most booked group days in the UAE. Schools usually book their tickets through the park’s group sales team and send us the arrival time. Companies often add dinner on Yas Bay after the parks close.

For school trips we make sure every seat has a belt, the coach is cool before the children board, and the teacher in charge has the driver’s number. Our school trip transport guide covers the questions schools ask most.

Cost

Transport for a Yas Island day from Dubai is quoted for your group. The price depends on the vehicle, whether the driver stays all day or does a drop-off and collection, and how late you finish. It includes the driver, fuel and road tolls. Park tickets are not included, and you buy them directly from the park.

Example: a family of five in a 7-seater van, drop-off at 10:00 and collection at 20:30. One quote, one driver, no waiting for a shuttle at closing time.

Staying in Abu Dhabi instead?

If your group is staying on Yas Island or in Abu Dhabi city, you don’t need a vehicle from Dubai. Tell us where you are staying and we quote the shorter run from your hotel instead.

Booking

Frequently asked.

Quick answers for this trip.

How far is Ferrari World from Dubai?

About 120 to 130 km from Downtown Dubai, around an hour and a quarter by road in normal traffic.

Can you collect us when the park closes?

Yes. Tell us the closing time and we come back for you, usually 30 minutes later so nobody has to rush.

Can we visit two Yas parks in one day?

Yes, with the driver staying all day. Start with the water park in the morning and finish at an indoor park.

Do you sell park tickets?

No. Buy tickets directly from the park. We provide the transport only, so you see each cost clearly.

Is this cheaper than a taxi?

For one or two people, a taxi can be cheaper. For a family or a group, one vehicle there and back usually costs less than several taxis each way.

Can a school book a coach for a Yas Island trip?

Yes. We run coaches for school groups with a seat belt on every seat. Book the tickets through the park and send us the times.

Leave when the park closes, not when the shuttle does.
