How to Get to Miracle Garden: The Complete Guide

Dubai continues to be a city of wonder in terms of experiences that are more than life size and from record breaking buildings to man-influenced islands. But often the most unique experience may not be the tallest building or a shopping mall. It simply is a garden. The Miracle Garden in Dubai is the biggest natural flower garden in the world that encompasses approximately 72,000 square meters, and includes over 150 million flowers. It is so colorful, and it feels much like a dream or scene from a fairy tale.
The Miracle Garden is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but before you can visit its beauty, you must complete one fairly simple step: you must decide on a common means of moving. Whether this is your first visit as a tourist in Dubai, or planning a day out as a resident, getting to the Miracle Garden can be easy to navigate if you understand your choices. In this Complete guide, I will discuss all that requires answers to your question of how to get to Dubai Miracle Garden via vehicle, taxi service, metro, bus, or even a tour package. I want to make the experience the most enjoyable possible.
 

Where Is Miracle Garden Located?

The Dubai Miracle Garden is located in Al Barsha South and Dubailand, a 25-30 minute drive from both Downtown Dubai and the Burj Khalifa area. The Miracle Garden is also situated close to another Dubai attraction, the Dubai Autodrome, and, on the other side, is one of its attractions, the Global Village. Depending on where you are in Dubai and the exact locations of the iconic landmarks, the Miracle Garden tourist attraction requires a little more effort and advanced thinking, as it is located just outside the iconic cluster, centralized and within forward-thinking Dubai.
While the area is well connected to other areas of the city, it cannot be easily reached through the metro alone. One of the reasons this is true for travelers.

Going by Car

Whether you are hiring a vehicle or driving yourself, it is a really convenient way to get to the Miracle Garden. The garden includes a large parking lot on site, so finding a car parking space should not be a problem.
  • Time Driving = 25-35 minutes from Downtown Dubai, depending on traffic levels.
  • Route = Driving to the Miracle Garden is just a matter of taking Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) or Umm Suqeim Road depending on where your accommodation is located and our favorite-irrespective of which route you are taking, you will on your route to Dubailand, which is also marked on Google maps.
Driving gives you a lot of freedom - especially when traveling with family or other people, or in the case when you would also like to visit Global Village, Butterfly Garden, or any other surrounding attractions on the same day.
 

Taking a Taxi

For many visitors, and tourists in particular, taxis can be the most relaxing choice. Taxis in Dubai are metered (as opposed to flat rates), safe, and inexpensive compared with other major cities.
Costs are approximately AED 70-90 from Downtown Dubai. From Dubai Marina, around AED 60-70. Times are expected to be 25-35 minutes, depending on the starting point.
The benefit of a taxi is that it we'll drop you at the entrance, whereas with the metro or public transport, you may have some extra walking and/or changing trains. If you are not a fan of public transport, or you are traveling in a group, the convenience of taxis may be worth the cost.
 

Going by Metro and Bus

This option is very economical, plus, it is a great way to experience the public transport system in Dubai. The metro does not go directly to the Miracle Garden, so you will need a combination of metro and a bus.
To visit the Miracle Garden, you can catch the Dubai Metro Red Line, then you will get off at the Mall of the Emirates Station. From there, take the RTA Bus 105 to the Miracle Garden.
  • Bus Fare: AED 5 per person (Nol card must be used)
  • Metro Fare: Depends on starting zone, but generally between AED 5 and 7.5
  • Total Time: Approximately 40-50 minutes from the Mall of the Emirates to the garden, and it has to include metro time too.
The RTA Bus 105 was designed with tourists visiting the Miracle Garden in mind and runs frequently during the Miracle Garden open season (November to April). This option is one of the cheapest ways to get to the garden.

Using Ride-Hailing Apps

If you're at all familiar with apps, you'll find rides with Uber or Careem available in the whole of Dubai. The prices tend to be a bit higher than for a regular taxi, but it does allow convenience if you would prefer to book your ride through your phone or pay via the app.
 

Joining a Tour Package

Some travel companies in Dubai offer Miracle Garden packages, providing you with a transport option and entry tickets. These packages can be useful if you do not want to keep track of the transportation logistics. Packages sometimes provide a visit to Global Village or the Dubai Butterfly Garden as part of a day long excursion.
These packages are slightly more sedate and will save you a bit of time or effort in arriving at one place from another. The tour buses are usually comfortable, air-conditioned, and pleasant, so it increases your overall enjoyment.
 

Best Time to Go

Since you are thinking about how to get to the Miracle Garden, it could be useful to think about when to go.
The garden is open seasonally from November to April because the flowers can't take the summer heat of Dubai. Within those months, you should try to visit early in the morning or late afternoon because it is cooler and the lighting is perfect for photography.
Don’t go during the middle of the day because it will be hot and busy. If you want fewer people around, go during the week rather than the weekend.
 

Tips for Your Journey

Plan for Your Transportation: If you are going to use public transportation, look at the RTA time schedule prior to departure, because bus times vary.
  • Nol card: You will need this rechargeable card for metro subway and bus transportation. You can buy one at any metro station.
  • Google Maps: Regardless of whether you are driving or taking a taxi it's very easy to find Miracle Garden, as it is listed clearly on Google Maps.
  • Combined Attractions: Since the Miracle Garden is between Global Village and the Butterfly Garden you may want to plan a combined trip for the three activities.
  • Don't Bring Too Much: If you are using public transportation, then don't bring too many bags, as transfers will be inconvenient.
 

Is It Hard to Get There?

Not necessarily. While you might think of the Miracle Garden as being slightly removed from the attractions in downtown Dubai. However, it is just as easy to get there as it is to other attractions in downtown Dubai. The Miracle Garden is accessible, along with all of the other Dubai attractions that visitors will enjoy seeking out, all of the beautiful flowers. You will be pleased to get there, no matter what mode of travel you choose (comfort (taxis or cars), or budget (metro, bus)).

Final Thoughts

The Miracle Garden is one of those beautiful places that makes you pause a moment just to appreciate the amazing creative imagination and determination it takes to create a flowering paradise in the desert. Figuring out how to get to the Miracle Garden is part of the adventure, and there are thankfully many ways to go, depending on the type of traveler you will be visiting Dubai. If you are going to choose comfort, it will be the taxis or ride-hail apps. If you are going to choose a budget, combine the metro and then the bus. Taking the metro and bus is straightforward, economical, and reliable! Parking is easy as well if you use a car.
However you make your way to the Miracle Garden (or wherever else you are visiting in Dubai), it is worth the trip for all the reasons previously mentioned. The only distinction is that once you walk into the Miracle Garden and focus your attentiveness on all the millions of flowers growing together in unity, you will see that transportation methods are insignificant compared to the experience ahead.
