Bur Dubai and historic Creek

Umm Hurair Airport Transfers

To get a private car between Umm Hurair and Dubai International (DXB) or Al Maktoum International (DWC), message or call with your hotel or address, flight number and the date and time in UAE time. A tailored quote is the reply. Flights are tracked, so an arrival pickup follows the actual landing, and your driver stands in the arrivals area with a name board.

Umm Hurair is split into two communities. Umm Hurair 2 runs along Dubai Creek and holds Wafi City, Dubai Healthcare City and Dubai Creek Park, with hotels such as Raffles Dubai, Sofitel Dubai The Obelisk, Grand Hyatt Dubai and Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights around it. Umm Hurair 1 lies in central Bur Dubai between Al Mankhool and Al Karama. Most pickups are at hotel doors, mall entrances or hospital and clinic entrances, so the building name and the entrance are the details to send.

Umm Hurair to and from the airport

Arriving at DXB

Umm Hurair 2 lies on the Bur Dubai bank of Dubai Creek, with Al Garhoud Bridge at one edge, and DXB is on the other side of the water, so the car crosses the Creek. The driver chooses the crossing on the day. For the quote, send the terminal (DXB has Terminals 1, 2 and 3; Emirates uses Terminal 3), flight number, landing date and time in UAE time, and the hotel name with its entrance. The flight is followed, so a late landing moves the pickup. Your driver holds a name board in arrivals, and 30 minutes of free waiting time is included.

Leaving for your flight

For a flight from DXB, send the flight time and the pickup time you want in UAE time, with the hotel or building and the entrance. Your airline publishes its own advice on when to reach the airport, so read that before choosing. Hotels with large conference spaces, such as the Grand Hyatt Dubai, can have many guests checking out at once, so settle the pickup time and meeting point before the morning. Put a UAE phone number on the quote. The return arrival can be quoted with the outward trip.

Flying from Al Maktoum International (DWC)

Al Maktoum International (DWC) is in Dubai South, on the far side of the emirate from the Creek. If your ticket says DWC, request the quote early. Send the airline, flight number, date and time in UAE time, and your hotel. DXB and DWC are different airports, so check the code on your ticket. A tailored quote comes first, and the team then confirms the arrangements.

Local know-how

Pickup and drop-off tips for Umm Hurair

Which Wafi entrance

Wafi City combines a mall, Raffles Dubai and, next door, Sofitel Dubai The Obelisk. Say which of these you are leaving from, and which entrance. Wafi lists valet at its main entrances and VIP parking at the main atrium entrance, so a hotel guest and a mall visitor may be waiting at different doors. Send a map pin of the exact entrance.

Hospital and clinic entrances

Dubai Healthcare City is home to Mediclinic City Hospital and many clinics and training buildings. Name the building and the entrance you will use, and tell us if the person travelling has limited mobility, so the team can suggest a vehicle and meeting point. These are ordinary private transfers, not medical transport.

Name the hotel, not the area

Hotels here often carry an area label in their name, and the labels do not always match the community. Rove Healthcare City, for instance, gives an Oud Metha address. Send the full hotel name, the street if you have it, and a pin of the entrance, rather than just Healthcare City or Bur Dubai.

Finishing a day at Creek Park

Dubai Creek Park lies on the Creek in Umm Hurair 2 and holds the Dubai Dolphinarium and Children's City. If a family day ends there, tell us the entrance you will leave by, the number of people and bags, and the finish time. Message the team on WhatsApp if the day runs later than planned.

Good to know

Umm Hurair 1 and 2 are not neighbours

Umm Hurair 1 sits in central Bur Dubai between Al Mankhool and Al Karama. Umm Hurair 2 borders the Creek, and Oud Metha and Al Karama lie between the two. So a traveller who says Umm Hurair could be near BurJuman or near Wafi and the Creek. Give the hotel name or building, the street and a map pin when you ask for a quote, and the team will plan from the correct community. If you are collected from a flat or office rather than a hotel, add the building name and the entrance as well.

Vehicles

Which vehicle suits a Umm Hurair transfer?

Medical visitors travelling with a companion and several cases usually fit an SUV (Toyota Prado or GMC Yukon class, up to 5 passengers with 4 large bags). A sedan (Toyota Camry or Nissan Altima class, up to 3 passengers with 2 large bags) suits one or two guests. Business travellers staying near Wafi can ask for the luxury executive car (Mercedes-Benz S-Class class, up to 3 passengers). Delegates and tour groups of 6 to 14 fit a van (Toyota Hiace class), and 15 or more need a mini bus or coach. Models are 'or similar' and confirmed with your quote.

Questions

Umm Hurair transfer questions

Something else? Ask us on WhatsApp and include your flight or pickup time.

Is Wafi the same as Dubai Healthcare City?

No. Wafi City is a mall, hotel and residence development on Oud Metha Road, while Dubai Healthcare City is the healthcare free zone nearby, and the Dubai Healthcare City metro station connects to Wafi City. Tell us the exact building you need.

Which entrance should I give at Wafi City?

The one you will actually use. Wafi lists valet at all its main entrances, so a hotel door and the mall atrium are different meeting points. Send a pin.

Raffles Dubai lists Sheikh Rashid Road and Wafi lists Oud Metha Road. Which do I send?

Send the hotel name and a map pin, and the road matters little. Wafi City describes itself as on Oud Metha Road, while Raffles gives Sheikh Rashid Road in its address, so the name and pin settle it.

Is Dubai Creek Park in Umm Hurair?

Yes, it is in Umm Hurair 2, on the Creek. Tell us which entrance you will leave by and the finish time of your visit, and send a pin.
