Question 1

What is the best way to get around Abu Dhabi in 2025 without stress?

Accepted Answer

Hiring a private car with a professional driver from BookADrive.ae is the easiest, most comfortable, and hassle-free option — especially in 45–50°C heat. You avoid waiting for buses, surge pricing on Uber/Careem, parking issues, and traffic fines.

Question 2

How much does it cost to hire a car with driver in Abu Dhabi?

Accepted Answer

Prices are fixed and agreed upfront. Hourly bookings start from as low as 4–12 hours packages, full-day (10–12 hours) from 800–1500 AED depending on vehicle class, and weekly/monthly packages can save you 50–60% compared to daily rates. No hidden charges, no deposit.

Question 3

Do I need an International Driving Permit if I book a car with driver?

Accepted Answer

No. When you book a car with a professional chauffeur from BookADrive.ae, you don’t drive at all — so no permit, no deposit, no insurance worries, and no risk of fines.

Question 4

Is it cheaper to use Uber, Careem, or public buses in Abu Dhabi?

Accepted Answer

For 1 short ride, yes. But if you have 4–5 stops in a day (malls, mosque, Ferrari World, etc.), Uber/Careem can easily cost 400–700 AED with surge pricing and different drivers each time. Buses are only 2–3 AED but require long walks and waiting in extreme heat. A private driver is actually cheaper and far more comfortable for a full day.

Question 5

Are your drivers fluent in English and other languages?

Accepted Answer

Yes! All our drivers speak fluent English and many are multilingual (Arabic, Hindi, Urdu, Tagalog, Russian, French). They are professionally trained, always in uniform, non-smoking, and know every shortcut and best photo spot.

Question 6

Can I book a luxury car like Rolls-Royce or Mercedes Maybach with driver in Abu Dhabi?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We offer the newest 2023–2025 fleet including Rolls-Royce Phantom/Ghost, Mercedes Maybach S680, Bentley Flying Spur, Range Rover Autobiography, Cadillac Escalade Platinum, and many more — perfect for weddings, VIP transfers, or special occasions.

Question 7

Do you provide airport transfers at Abu Dhabi International Airport (Zayed International)?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Meet & Greet service inside the arrival hall with name sign, free trolley assistance, and up to 90 minutes free waiting in case of flight delays. Direct door-to-door transfer to your hotel or residence.

Question 8

Are child seats and baby seats provided free of charge?

Accepted Answer

Yes, 100% free — infant capsules, baby seats, and child boosters up to 12 years, installed professionally by the driver.

Question 9

Can I cancel my booking if my plans change?

Accepted Answer

Yes — free cancellation 6–12 hours before pickup time (depending on the service). No questions asked.

Is it safe to travel with BookADrive.ae drivers and vehicles?

Question 11

What happens if my flight is delayed or arrives early at Abu Dhabi Airport?
