Planning to rent a car in Dubai? You’re about to embark on one of the most luxurious and memorable journeys of your life. From iconic skyscrapers to stunning desert highways, the UAE offers unmatched scenery — and there’s no better way to explore it than from behind the wheel of a premium rental car.
At Sky Book Car Rental, we offer a wide range of high-end vehicles — from luxury sedans and supercars to family SUVs and convertibles — all designed to make your trip stylish, smooth, and unforgettable.
If you’re wondering what you need to know before renting a car in Dubai, here are some essential tips to ensure a hassle-free experience.
1. Where to Go? Plan Your Route
If you’re already familiar with UAE roads, great — plan your itinerary and hit the road in style. But if you’re new to the country, don’t worry. You can either:
-
Use GPS or Google Maps to navigate
-
Or hire a professional chauffeur from Sky Book for a stress-free luxury experience
Our drivers know every corner of Dubai — from Downtown to Jumeirah, Palm to Marina — and can elevate your trip with their local expertise.
2. Respect Speed Limits
Speed limits are strictly enforced in the UAE. Here’s what to keep in mind:
| City | Speed Limit |
|---|---|
| Dubai | Up to 110 km/h |
| Abu Dhabi | Up to 140 km/h |
| Northern Emirates | Around 120 km/h |
Tip: Stay under the limit — fines are automatically issued via radar, and they can be hefty!
3. Best Time to Visit
The UAE has two types of weather: hot and hotter.
-
Ideal season: October to April (pleasant and cooler)
-
Summer months: May to September (very hot, but manageable with the right car)
If you’re visiting during the warmer months, make sure to rent a car with a powerful air conditioning system — all our SkyBook rentals are equipped for UAE conditions.
4. Photography Etiquette
Dubai offers stunning photo opportunities — from Burj Khalifa views to desert backdrops. But here’s what to remember:
-
Ask permission before taking pictures of people
-
Be respectful of locals’ privacy
-
Feel free to photograph architecture, nature, and your Sky Book luxury car just avoid taking photos in restricted areas
5. Dress Respectfully
While Dubai is modern and cosmopolitan, it’s still important to respect local customs:
-
Avoid overly revealing clothing in public places
-
Modest, smart-casual attire is always a safe and respectful choice
-
Visiting mosques or cultural sites? Cover shoulders and knees
6. Should You Tip?
Absolutely — tipping is appreciated and encouraged across the UAE. While it’s not mandatory, it’s a nice gesture:
-
Restaurants: ~10%
-
Hotel staff: 5–20 AED
-
Valets & parking: Small tip (~5–10 AED)
-
Drivers: Based on service quality
