A limousine booking with Assure is a luxury car and chauffeur for a set number of hours. The car drives you to the occasion, waits outside and takes you home. It is built around an evening or an event, not a single transfer.
For an airport run, a day of meetings or an ADNEC exhibition, our chauffeur service in Abu Dhabi is the better fit. Limousine bookings in Dubai are on the main limousine service page.
Visiting for an event? See the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix visitor guide and the Louvre Abu Dhabi visitor guide.
Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental sits at the western end of the Corniche. From Dubai Marina it is about 126 km by road, roughly 1 hour 20 minutes without traffic. The chauffeur waits through dinner, so nobody in your party drives back on the E11 late at night.
A two-stop evening works well from there. Louvre Abu Dhabi on Saadiyat is about 14 km from Emirates Palace, and the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque about 19 km.
Etihad Arena stands on the Yas Bay waterfront on Yas Island and holds 18,000 guests. Its listings run from concerts and comedy to UFC fight nights. From Dubai Marina the arena is about 96 km, roughly 1 hour without traffic.

The arena names its car parks on its directions page:
The page does not name a separate set-down point for private cars, as of 17 October 2026. Send your chauffeur the car park or gate on your ticket, and agree the meeting point for the end of the show before you go in. Our Etihad Arena parking and drop-off guide has more on show nights.
A wedding usually needs two kinds of car: one for the couple and others for family and guests. The Rolls-Royce Phantom suits the bride, because its rear-hinged doors open behind her as she steps out. It is available through our partner network, subject to availability. Escalades and V-Class vans move the family between the house, the venue and the hotel.
Build the drive into the timetable. A bride leaving a home in Downtown Dubai for a wedding at Emirates Palace spends about 1 hour 35 minutes on the road without traffic. For decoration, photo stops and guest shuttles, see our wedding car hire page.
Formula 1 lists the 2026 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as Round 23, the last of the season, from 4 to 6 December at Yas Marina Circuit. A race day can end with dinner on the Corniche: Emirates Palace is about 38 km from the circuit, roughly 32 minutes on a clear road.
Book race-weekend cars as early as you can, because partner cars are confirmed date by date. Gate drop-offs, shuttles and daily circuit runs are on our Abu Dhabi Grand Prix chauffeur page.
The passenger count leaves out the chauffeur. Large bags means checked suitcases that still fit when every seat is taken.
| Occasion | Car | Passengers | Large bags | Supplied by |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bride’s arrival | Rolls-Royce Phantom | 3 | 2 | Partner network |
| Dinner for two or three | Rolls-Royce Ghost, Bentley Flying Spur or Mercedes-Maybach S-Class | 3 | 2 | Partner network |
| Business dinner or a gala | Mercedes-Benz S-Class or BMW 7 Series | 3 | 2 | Assure fleet |
| A concert for 6 friends | Cadillac Escalade | 6 | 3 | Assure fleet |
| 6 guests in evening wear, plus bags | Mercedes-Benz V-Class | 6 | 4 | Assure fleet |
| A party of up to 10 | Cadillac Escalade stretch | 10 | 2 | Partner network |
The Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Maybach and stretch cars are available through our partner network, subject to availability. Compare them on the ultra-luxury and exotic cars page. Ask for two models when you request a quote, in case your first choice is booked.
Every limousine booking is quoted by the hour, for the whole car. Your quote states when the hours start and end.

Distances and drive times without traffic come from the OSRM route planner on OpenStreetMap data, checked on 17 October 2026. The road itself is described on our Dubai to Abu Dhabi route page.
Assure is RTA licensed in Dubai. Abu Dhabi licenses its own limousines: Abu Dhabi Mobility publishes separate lists of approved limousine vehicles and limousine operators. So the emirate where your evening starts decides who drives it.
| Your trip | Example | How it runs |
|---|---|---|
| Starts and ends in Dubai | Dubai Marina to Emirates Palace and back | Under Assure’s RTA licence |
| Starts in Dubai, ends in Abu Dhabi | Downtown Dubai to a Yas Island hotel | Under Assure’s RTA licence |
| Starts inside Abu Dhabi | A Saadiyat hotel to Etihad Arena and back | A partner vehicle licensed in Abu Dhabi, on request |
| Starts at Zayed International | Terminal A to an Abu Dhabi wedding venue | A partner vehicle licensed in Abu Dhabi, on request |
For trips that start inside Abu Dhabi, we confirm the partner car before you accept the quote. Flight pickups at Terminal A are covered on our Zayed International transfers page.
Send it on WhatsApp at +971 56 684 8148 or in the trip form on this page. We answer 24/7 on WhatsApp and phone, and the booking is confirmed when you accept the quote.

Every quote is made for your trip, so no rate card. These are the things it depends on.
Assure does not publish a day rate, because the price moves with the car, the hours and where the day starts. A day from Dubai Marina to Abu Dhabi spends 2 to 3 of its hours on the E11 between the cities. Send the date, the hours and your stops on WhatsApp, and the quote for the whole car comes back there.
It depends on four things: the car class, the number of hours, the emirate the trip starts in and the date. An S-Class for a 3-hour dinner and a partner Rolls-Royce Phantom for a wedding afternoon are quoted very differently. Every quote is for the whole car, with the tolls on your route shown.
It depends on the occasion and the party size. For a wedding arrival, the Rolls-Royce Phantom has rear-hinged doors that open clear of a long dress, and comes through our partner network, subject to availability. For a business dinner, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class seats 3 in the rear. For 6 friends going to Etihad Arena, a Cadillac Escalade or Mercedes-Benz V-Class keeps everyone in one car.
Yes, on request. A pickup that starts inside Abu Dhabi, such as a Yas Island hotel or Zayed International, needs a vehicle licensed in Abu Dhabi. We arrange it through a partner, subject to availability. Trips that start in Dubai run under Assure's RTA licence. Ask us to confirm the car for your date.
About 96 km and 1 hour from Dubai Marina, or 115 km and 1 hour 15 minutes from Downtown Dubai, without traffic. These are OSRM road figures checked on 17 October 2026. Allow extra time on show nights, when the whole arena arrives and leaves within the same hour.
Ask before you plan a short evening. Rolls-Royce, Bentley and Mercedes-Maybach cars come through our partner network, subject to availability, and a partner may set a minimum number of hours for its car. If it does, the minimum is written into your quote. Assure's own S-Class and 7 Series suit a quick dinner run.
Stretch cars such as the Cadillac Escalade stretch, for up to 10 passengers, are available through our partner network, subject to availability. Check the venue first: some hotel entrances and car parks are tight for a long car. For 6 guests, a Cadillac Escalade or a Mercedes-Benz V-Class is easier to place at the door.
