Renting a car in the UAE: your gateway to freedom

Renting a car in the UAE gives you unmatched freedom to explore: no more waiting on public transport or sticking to fixed-schedule group tours. To rent a car, you'll need an International Driving Permit (IDP), your national driver's license, a credit card, and your passport.

Driving in the Emirates is a pleasure, with its well-maintained roads, affordable fuel, and breathtaking scenery. From the awe-inspiring Sheikh Zayed Mosque in Abu Dhabi to the bustling Dubai Mall and the sparkling gold souks, there's a wealth of sights to see. Don't miss unique spots like Dubai's Garden of Wonders, all within easy reach by car.

With our 24/7 roadside assistance, help is always just a call away for any inquiries you might have. Additionally, enjoy the flexibility of free cancellations up to seven days before your trip and take advantage of promotional discounts like "LOCAL".

Where to rent a car in the UAE

If you're setting out in your rented car in the UAE, consider visiting these world-renowned tourist destinations:

Dubai: Beyond the famed Dubai Mall, ascend the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, and dive into the city's vibrant nightlife.
Abu Dhabi: Revel in the architectural marvel of the Sheikh Zayed Mosque and explore the myriad attractions of Yas Island.
Sharjah: Discover the cultural heritage in Sharjah's museums and traditional markets.
Fujairah: Seek out tranquility on its serene beaches and scenic mountain trails.

Pick-up and return your rental car at convenient locations like the airport. Just present your voucher, MVU, and passport, inspect the car for any existing damage, and sign the rental agreement. Returning the car is straightforward — just ensure it's on time and refueled according to the company's policy.

Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE

Wonderful service! Amazing car! . The only problem was to find the solution to pay toll-free roads one month later from Russia as no cards are accepted abroad.

Nissan Altima in the UAE

Great car, very roomy, holds the road perfectly on the highway, easy to drive in the city. The rental process is very comfortable - the guys bring the car to the airport right to the arrival, quickly sign the papers and drive off. Return also without waiting, at the designated time. The deposit was returned as they said - exactly in 10 days, in full on the Russian card. In general I recommend, next time I will definitely take a car here - the choice of car options is very decent.

Nissan X-Terra in the UAE

I liked everything. The rental service itself is very convenient, you can put filters and customize the car to your request - this is a huge plus. Also the prices through TakeCars are lower than doing it directly through the rental company. Convenient way to pay and book a car with a Russian card. Quick confirmation. The rental company itself and the car is in good order, no comments. We received exactly the car that was on the photo and in the description, without substitutions. The only thing is that we made a little mistake with the car, we should have taken something more mobile and dynamic

Suzuki Ciaz in the UAE

The rental went great. The car was new, 4800 km mileage. Polite staff quickly completed the paperwork, waited 5 minutes and the car was already waiting downstairs. I drove more than 1300 km. I am satisfied with the car and the service. The delivery of the car was just as fast. I will advise my friends!

Porsche 718 Boxster S in the UAE

I liked everything the car was delivered at 10:00, I forgot and only woke up at 10, but they waited for me, they took me away too at 10, I gave it with a full tank, there was a Gas Station nearby, everything was convenient on the Site, I immediately chose the model that I liked, 2 people wrote to me they explained everything in vatsap in detail, the car is just emotions, I have Kaen in Kiev, I thought to take a boxter as a second car, but I think it won't go for Kiev, but for Dubai, the very thing, you won't go with an open roof during the day, it's very hot, although some are desperate they drive (they also took a convertible, you can immediately see ours) and in the evening ride in a thrill, but if it's already uncomfortable on the highway above 100 km, I'm generally satisfied with the car and the service, I hope next time I'll take something better or if I live far from the center Something simpler for the entire stay, a taxi is expensive to go far, it's easier to take a regular car, I'm waiting for you to return the deposit, I hope there are no fines, I tried. And it's also important to keep track of the km, I dashed off 230 km from 250 available

Toyota Rush in the UAE

I rented a car in Dubai from a company where all the guys speak Russian. I liked the fact that I didn't need to leave any deposits. Payment in rubles over the phone and it is very adequate. The car was waiting for us at the airport and all the registration took no more than 3 minutes. We didn't give the car back at all, we just left it at the airport parking lot and sent the photo of the car and parking place by phone. Everything is very fast and very convenient. I recommend this company to everyone. The guys are very specific and problem free.

Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE

When we were passing through Dubai, on the last day we decided to rent a car to get to beautiful desert locations for a photo shoot. We found a suitable and most favorable option (Mitsubishi Attrage) on TakeCars. We had to wait for the car to be issued...took photos, signed everything and off we went. Everything went well, returning the car took much less time than getting it. And we drove to the airport. We were a little upset that we didn't take the car on the last day. After all, we could have gone to Abu Dhabi to see the Zayd Mosque.

Hyundai Tucson in the UAE

1. We booked a car at the airport, but in fact we took a cab from the airport to our office. It is inconvenient with children and suitcases constantly overloaded. 2. The car was different, but not worse. 3. The rental itself was fine. 4. Then different people contacted me and asked the same questions about the return time, etc. 5. Then when I ordered a cab for 16.00 from the rental office to the airport, the drivers started calling me at 4.00 am, mixing up the morning with the evening. 6. Further when I arrived at their office, I had to go up to their office and had to deal with the cab for a long time. 7. Further every 10 minutes I was told that in 5 minutes will be a cab to the airport, was late for 35 min car in the end. 8. In general, the service is lame, to put it mildly. 9. In exchange for the inconvenience of nothing offered, even took extra money for not getting gasoline in double the amount.

Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE

Overall it's good, except the cost of the fines cost a lot more than the cost of the rental. It would be cool if there was some sort of manual on what to pay attention to. Instructions on how to pay in parking machines, instructions on how to pay a fine in the local traffic police, UAE id, some general information that Yandex maps do not show current road repairs and you can accidentally violate because of this, information that Yandex maps lie about free parking, maybe recommendations of the best navigators for the Emirates... spent half of my vacation on figuring this shit out instead of having a rest. The bill for payment of toll roads, already comes on return to Russia, respectively dancing with tambourine how to pay, maps RF do not pass. There are no complaints about the staff in the office in Dubai, polite, helpful, trying to help.
