QE2 Hotel Dubai to Rashid Cruise Terminal and public transport access?

[goaussiegal]

Hi,

We will be in Dubai in April 2024 and love the idea on staying on the QE2 (we stayed on the Queen Mary at Long Beach years ago).  

I am struggling with google maps - how far and hard is the walk to the Port Rashid Cruise Terminal?

Also how far and hard is the walk to any public transport?  We want to see the Burj Khalifa and would prefer not doing a tour or a taxi.

 

Thanks!

Haven't used Port Rashid in a while (last cruises were from Marina) but don't recall much in the line of public transit nearby. I don't think QE2 is too far from the cruise terminal.

do the hop on hop off bus.  I know it has a stop at ( or very close) to the Burj, i think it even has a stop at/near the cruise terminal.

Ooh - good idea! I'll look up the maps. Ta!

I believe there is a stop close to Marina, which calls itself Dubai Harbour. Unless there's been a radical change the entrance for Mina Rashid is on the west side, a considerable distance from the HOHO bus.
