Height and safety first
Riders must be at least 130 cm tall; secure loose items and follow attendant instructions to avoid ride interruptions.
Visit off-peak
Weekday evenings or early mornings often have shorter lines—allow 30–60 minutes total for check-in and the pre-show.
Motion-sickness precautions
If you’re susceptible to nausea, sit near the train’s middle and consider medication or ginger beforehand.
Use public transit or plan parking
Dubai Hills Mall has public transport links and ample parking; using transit reduces time spent finding a space during busy periods.
Photo ID or passport
Needed if you booked with mobile ticket pickup or for any transfers.
Secure shoes
Closed or strapped shoes prevent losing footwear during the drop.
Small zip pouch or phone strap
Keeps your phone or wallet secure during the ride and pre-show.
Light outer layer
Mall interiors are air-conditioned; a light layer keeps you comfortable between indoor and warmer outdoor areas.
