Most cab drivers in Dubai are foreigners and, mostly they are from South Asia and can speak at least some English language. However, the addresses are provided by specifying the nearest landmark. If you’re going as a guest to the residence, ask the host to give the driver directions. News drivers may have trouble to find their ways in the streets of Dubai. If your cab driver did not know how to use apps like Google Maps, RTA Smart Drive, or other mapping apps, use your phone and help them to find your location.
