Airport Transfers in Abu Dhabi

Shared bus transfer

Our shared shuttles from Abu Dhabi Airport can get you to popular hotels both in the city itself and in nearby destinations, for the best price available. Also sometimes referred to as a shared shuttle, with this service, you will join other travellers when you get through to Arrivals, in a large, comfortable vehicle that will make stops en route to your accommodation. But don't worry - there will be a maximum of around 8 stops before you arrive at your own hotel, so you won't be endlessly travelling the scenic route.

Speedy shared bus transfer

Purple Parking's speedy shuttle transfers work just like our normal shuttle service as above, where you will make several stops in a larger vehicle you share with other travellers, boarding at the terminal at Abu Dhabi Airport. However, where our normal shuttle transfers make up to 8 stops, our speedy shuttle transfers typically make up to 4 stops, which means you get to your hotel in the city a lot faster. This is the perfect option for those who want to enjoy the best balance of convenience and shorter journey times.

Private transfers

Our private transfers are very similar to catching a public taxi at the terminal, in that you travel in one vehicle that is just for the use of your and your group. However, the difference by by pre-booking is that you guarantee there will a car ready and waiting for you when you land. So all that's left for you to do once you've landed and grabbed your luggage, is find your waiting driver, hop into your car, and set off when you're ready. There's no other stops when you choose a private taxi transfer - instead, you'll go straight to your hotel, no matter where you are staying, with the minimum of fuss. Private cars can also take you to private accommodation, which means this is the most flexible option available.

Executive private transfers

Think of it as a luxury taxi transfer, with the simplicity of a private car, and the extra special touch of something a little more luxurious to kickstart your trip. Our executive transfers are the perfect option for you. Offering everything you get from our standard private transfers, but with an uber-classy brand vehicle collecting you from the terminal, this is perfect for those wanting to treat themselves to a special start to their holiday.

Minibus transfers

If you're travelling in a group of friends or family that can't fit into one taxi, and you don't want to share a shuttle with others, you probably still want to stick together, rather than getting split up across multiple vehicles and potentially lose track of eachother. When you book your own private minibus for your journey to your hotel you can do just that. You'll be transported together in a minibus you'll have all to yourselves.

Wheelchair adapted transfers

If anyone you're booking for uses a wheelchair and you need to book an adapted vehicle for your trip from Abu Dhabi Airport, then you can do so easily with us here at Purple Parking. A wheelchair transfer offers a fuss-free journey to your destination, and includes a driver who will be able to provide whatever assistance you may need from start to finish, so you don't have to worry about a thing on the day. Also, You pay for everything upfront when you book, so you won't have to worry about watching the metre ticking up!

Private coach transfers

If you are travelling in a group that's too big even for a minibus, then we can also offer private coach transfers from Abu Dhabi Airport to hotels across the city and even further afield.
