The Layout and Transportation
Located on Sheikh Zayed Road, about 25 minutes from Dubai Marina, the complex is quite a distance from the city center, so planning your transportation is key. While the ticket doesn’t include transport, locals and travelers find Dubai’s public transport system—especially taxis and metro—reliable and affordable. You can plan your trip with apps or ask your hotel for assistance.
The complex is connected by Riverland Dubai, a charming retail and dining area, which acts as the hub for moving between the parks. The short walk between parks is a big plus, especially on hot Dubai days when waiting for shuttles can be uncomfortable.
