Traveling to Sharjah
Sharjah keeps a quieter, more conservative character than its neighbors, with one of the region's highest concentrations of museums and heritage sites packed into a compact old town — a different, slower side of the UAE than Dubai's skyline.
Most travelers arrange a private hotel pickup or drop-off as part of the trip. For onward travel, see our Riyadh to Dubai taxi service. You can also extend the trip to Dubai.

Attractions in Sharjah
Sharjah Heritage Area
A restored old-town quarter of wind-tower houses, souks, and courtyard museums along the Khalid Lagoon.
Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization
One of the region's leading Islamic art and science museums, housed in a converted waterfront souk building.
Al Noor Island & Mosque
A landscaped island with a butterfly house and views of the striking Al Noor Mosque across the lagoon.
Blue Souq (Central Market)
Sharjah's twin-towered traditional market — textiles, carpets, and gold under distinctive blue-tiled arches.
Transfer & Chauffeur Options
Airport Transfer
Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) is a common budget-carrier gateway to the UAE — we meet arrivals there directly, as well as running transfers from Dubai International (DXB) for travelers who land in Dubai but are staying in Sharjah.
All airport transfers →City Transfer
Sharjah's heritage district is walkable once you're there, but getting between the airport, hotels, and the old town — or over to Dubai — is a private-car trip most visitors prefer to prearrange rather than negotiate on arrival.
Private taxi service →Hourly Chauffeur
An hourly chauffeur suits a half-day museum circuit through the Heritage Area, or a combined Sharjah-and-Dubai day for visitors based in either Emirate.
Corporate transportation →Ways We're Used in Sharjah
