KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Ras Al Khaimah

  • Car rental in Ras Al Khaimah offers a unique opportunity to explore the capital of this emirate and venture onto both sides of the creek without relying on public transport, trying to figure out the bus routes or paying large amounts to local taxi drivers. You can take the time to drive to the National Museum of Ras Al Khaimah, spend time walking through Saqr Park, venture off to Rak Beach or head to the boats that'll take you to Suwaidi Pearls. Another popular thing to do is take a road trip to Dubai, which is less than 1h 30min away.
  • An ideal place to find car rental in Ras Al Khaimah is Ras Al Khaimah Airport (RKT), which is only about a 10min drive from the city centre and likely to be your arrival and departure point for your trip. There aren't specific car rental desks located at the airport but you can book online through KAYAK and have a representative from one of the major companies meet you in the arrival hall and escort you to your vehicle nearby.
  • Using Ras Al Khaimah car rental in the city is simple enough, but there are a few things to be aware of. Firstly, make sure you follow the rules of the road, even if local drivers seem not to. Foreign drivers are heavily fined for disobeying the road rules. Traffic can be heavy at times and it's important to stay calm to avoid altercations. Local drivers can be aggressive in the way they drive. When you're driving in the city centre, be aware of pedestrians walking across the road.
  • Because of the heat in the city and the rest of the country, it's important to check your coolant and water levels regularly. A difficulty driving in the city is often the traffic and local drivers changing lanes frequently and without warning. Many of them drive aggressively, which can be unnerving. When driving on the outskirts of the city or in more rural areas, be aware of animals on the road. If you're used to driving on the left-hand side of the road, bear in mind, you'll drive on the opposite side in the UAE. Take time to practice if you need to before hitting the road.
  • Book your car hire in Ras Al Khaimah at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact hire cars in Ras Al Khaimah are around 54% cheaper than other car types, on average
