    Port Location –

    Transport Links – Abu Dhabi International Airport- (AUH) serves this city. Private vehicles and taxis are the primary means of transportation in the city, although public buses, are available.There are bus routes to nearby towns such as Baniyas, Habashan and the garden city of UAE Al Ain, among others. There is a newer service started in 2005 between Abu Dhabi and the commercial city of Dubai (about 160 km away).

    Abu Dhabi does not currently have a usable system of public transportation, but it is almost unnecessary, as taxis are very cheap- about $1.50, US will get you from one end of the city to another and rental cars are very reasonable.
