Getting from Abu Dhabi Airport (AUH) to Saadiyat Island takes about 25 min by car on an empty road (25–35 min in heavy traffic) over 31 km via E12. Our private transfer costs €40 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €60 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.
On arrival: The driver waits in the public Arrivals area of Terminal A, after immigration, baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.
Saadiyat Island lies about 30 km north-west of the airport, between Yas Island and the city centre. The usual route crosses Yas Island and joins the Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Highway (E12), which runs along the coast over a chain of bridges and islands to Saadiyat. The highway has several lanes in each direction and continues on to the Mina Zayed area and the city. It avoids the busy streets of downtown Abu Dhabi, and the drive is usually quick outside the morning and evening rush.
Saadiyat is a large island next to the city, best known for its Cultural District with the Louvre Abu Dhabi, the Zayed National Museum and teamLab Phenomena. Its northern shore is lined with a long white sand beach, where resort hotels and the public Saadiyat Beach stand, and the sea there is shallow and calm. Hawksbill turtles nest on parts of the beach between spring and summer. The Saadiyat Beach Golf Club lies behind the shore, and the island is linked to the city centre by the Sheikh Khalifa Bridge.
Public transport: No direct public transport from the airport to Saadiyat Island is listed by the airport: its city bus routes run to Al Zahiyah, Khalifa Street, MBZ City, Khalifa City and Al Shahama.
