          Experience the charm of Dubai’s historic waterway, the Dubai Creek, by hopping on board an abra for under Dh2. These traditional wooden ferries, operated by Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), offer a unique and affordable way to explore the 14-kilometer stretch that divides the districts of Bur Dubai and Deira.

          The word ‘abra’ means ‘to cross’ in Arabic, and it is the oldest and most authentic mode of transport in the city. Depending on the type of abra, either motorized or fuel-operated, a single trip ticket can cost between Dh1 to Dh2. The boats depart from both sides of the Creek every few minutes, dropping passengers off near popular locations in Bur Dubai and Deira, such as the traditional souqs, tourist and heritage areas, and museums.

          If you reside in Dubai or have guests arriving from overseas and wish to showcase the city’s vibrant cultural heritage, then exploring the bustling Dubai Creek on an abra is an excellent option for this weekend. An abra is a traditional wooden boat that has been used for centuries to transport people and goods across the creek.

          Embarking on an abra ride is an immersive experience that lets you witness the city’s rich history and culture. As you glide along the creek, you’ll be surrounded by the sights and sounds of the bustling waterfront, with traditional dhows and modern yachts sharing the waterway.

          You can also take in the stunning views of the city’s iconic landmarks, such as the Dubai Museum, the Grand Mosque, and the towering skyscrapers that line the creek. The abra ride is an affordable and convenient way to explore the city’s vibrant past and present, making it an ideal activity for both tourists and locals alike.

          So, whether you’re looking to entertain guests or simply want to experience the city’s rich cultural heritage, an abra ride along Dubai Creek is an excellent choice. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to explore one of Dubai’s most iconic landmarks.

          The petrol heritage abra – Dh2

          The Heritage Abra is a contemporary take on the classic boat, as it operates on petrol or fuel. It boasts a spacious seating area, accommodating up to 20 passengers.

          Embark on a journey through the Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood, where passengers can explore the souqs lining the Creek and the Dubai Museum.
