Should I rent a car with Zest Car Rental in the United Arab Emirates?

In short, yes! Hiring a car in the UAE offers you the freedom to explore hidden gems only accessible by car. Start your journey in Dubai, the bustling metropolis known for its futuristic skyscrapers and innovative architecture. With your hire car, you can easily access the city's iconic landmarks. Begin at the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, and enjoy panoramic views from the observation deck. Drive along Sheikh Zayed Road to marvel at architectural marvels like the Burj Al Arab, known as the world's only seven-star hotel, and the Dubai Opera. 

Drive to the UAE's capital city, Abu Dhabi, where you can explore its rich cultural heritage and modern attractions.

Where can I rent a car in the United Arab Emirates with Zest Car Rental?

No matter which of the seven emirates of the UAE you choose to base your holiday in, rest assured that Zest Car Rental will be close by to give you the keys to your superb rental car. The airports we cover in the UAE include:

Dubai International Airport - Based on the Arabian Gulf, where a golden sandy coastline dazzles under a scorching sun, Dubai is a holiday destination where fun and entertainment is guaranteed. If it gets too hot, head for the indoor ski centre or the shade of the Jumeirah Mosque. If you’re after modern architecture, make for the Burj Khalifa - the tallest building in the world at 828m.

Abu Dhabi Airport - The capital city of the UAE boasts many wonderful sights including the stunning Sheikh Zayed Mosque. The 6km-long Corniche beach is great for topping up a tan or if you’re here for the F1, head on down to Yas Marina for the action or to visit Ferrari World.

Sharjah Airport - The Eye of the Emirates and the Arab Capital of Culture, Sharjah is a world away from its richer neighbours. With a wonderful Old Town, a complete ban on alcohol, and strict decency laws, this really does feel like a Muslim country. The Aquarium offers a fascinating insight into the local species whilst the excellent Museum of Islamic Civilisation covers everything from clothing to architecture and even has letters written by the Prophet Muhammad. Perched on the water’s edge, the Al Noor Mosque is another highlight.
