Buses going almost everywhere for as low as 0.80$ one way fare , are air conditioned   and even the bus stops too .

Bus Transport comes with a blessing called RTA Dubai .

Dubai Metro 
Dubai metro is the backbone of Dubai Transport . All you have to do is buy a "Nol Card " .Which is a card holding credit for you . It can be recharged easily at those recharge machines at any metro staion which can be done in a jiffy . Nol card is also useful while using buses .

Though if you are staying for less than a weeks time and you know that you wont be taking metro often dont get yourself a nol card . instead buy ticket upon entry which is slightly expensive but fine for tourists .

Dubai Cabs/Taxi 
Dubai Cab drivers are registered and monitored by GPS at all times . They are very much safe 24 hours a day . All nice , spacious & non smoking cars .The fares in taxi is obviously more than any other transport but the fare is GPS governed also .Hence , you dont need to bargain with the drivers .
Nol Card can also be used in some taxis . Cabs are easily available & can also be booked .
The cabs are maintained by Government .



Note :
1) You might think it is better to rent a car but trust me its not cheap at all  . Also,brings alot parking & many other problems .
2) Always rent a house/room keeping in mind the nearest metro station . It gets very easy if you're living near one .
