Rent a Ferrari in Dubai

Renting a Ferrari in Dubai

Dubai has more Ferrari rental operators per square kilometre than almost anywhere on the planet. Competition keeps prices reasonable relative to Western markets, and the selection spans nearly every current model. Operators cluster around Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, and Business Bay, with delivery to hotels and airports available through most.

Models & Pricing

The F8 Tributo (710hp, twin-turbo V8) is the most available car — AED 1,800–2,200/day, deposit around AED 5,000. The Roma (612hp) is quieter and more relaxed at AED 1,500–1,900/day, better suited for longer drives. The Portofino M (620hp convertible) runs AED 1,800–2,200/day — ideal October through April. The 296 GTB (818hp hybrid) runs AED 2,800–3,500/day; the SF90 Stradale (986hp) reaches AED 3,800–4,500/day. The 812 Superfast (789hp V12) occupies a similar band with a more analogue character. Weekly rates discount around 15–20%. Airport pickup from DXB or DWC is available; confirm fees with the operator.

Where to Drive

Hatta Mountain Road (E44): Start at the Academic City interchange and follow E44 southeast for 105km into the Hajar Mountains. The road tightens as you gain elevation, with long sight lines and minimal traffic on weekday mornings. Allow two hours each way — the best driving in the emirate.

Dubai to Fujairah via E102: Cross the Hajar Mountains to the East Coast. The Masafi area and Khor Kalba mangroves are good stops. Total drive 2.5–3 hours each way. Confirm your rental agreement permits travel into Fujairah emirate.

Al Qudra Desert Loop: Flat and straight through open desert — not the most engaging technically, but the backdrop at sunset with the top down is genuinely memorable. About 40km from Downtown.

Sheikh Zayed Road (late evening): Near-empty road after 11pm with the lit skyline as backdrop. Stay in the right lane and observe the 120km/h limit — cameras are fixed at every major junction.

Practical Tips

Speed cameras are everywhere and there is no meaningful tolerance above posted limits. Fines are charged to the Salik account and passed to you with an admin fee of AED 100–250. Fuel is 98 RON (Super) at around AED 4.00/litre — budget AED 200–250 to fill an F8. Most operators require a credit card for the deposit; bring your passport and original driving licence. Avoid leaving the car in unshaded surface lots in summer — interior temperatures exceed 70°C.
