Local Tips

  • NO Uber or Careem at HRG — pre-arranged hotel transfer or authorized taxi only.
  • Always confirm taxi fare in advance — meter rarely used for airport-to-resort trips.
  • Most resort visits use included transfer — confirm with your booking before declining.
  • Heat in summer (40°C+) is intense — minimize outdoor wait time.
  • HRG white taxis are the only authorized rank — refuse anyone approaching you in the terminal.
