The Dubai Mall is one of the largest shopping and leisure destinations in the world, and covering it on foot can be a lot — especially across a full day. Renting a wheelchair makes the whole experience calmer and more comfortable, and with Haraka Mobility you can reserve online and simply collect at a kiosk inside the mall. Here is everything you need to know.
Why rent a wheelchair at The Dubai Mall?
The Dubai Mall stretches across an enormous footprint in Downtown Dubai, with hundreds of stores, dining areas, the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo, an ice rink, cinemas and direct access to Burj Khalifa. Walking the entire venue in a single visit can be tiring for anyone, and for visitors with reduced mobility, joint pain, or limited stamina it can turn a fun outing into an exhausting one.
A rented wheelchair removes that pressure. Instead of rationing your energy or cutting your day short, you can move comfortably between attractions, pause when you like, and keep the focus on enjoying the visit rather than managing fatigue.
How Click & Collect works with Haraka Mobility
Haraka Mobility is built around a simple reserve-and-collect flow designed for a busy mall environment. You choose your equipment and time online, then pick it up in person — no queuing to figure out availability once you arrive.
- Reserve online before you arrive, selecting your equipment, date and rental length.
- Receive your confirmation, then head to a Haraka Click & Collect kiosk inside The Dubai Mall.
- Collect your sanitised wheelchair at the kiosk — staff help you get set up comfortably.
- Return it to any Haraka kiosk in the mall when you are done.
Pricing and rental options
Haraka offers both hourly and daily rentals, so you only pay for what you need. A short stop for a specific dinner or show is very different from a full day exploring with the family, and the pricing reflects that.
First-hour rates for a standard wheelchair typically start in the region of AED 60, with premium and powered options sitting higher up the range. As with retail in the UAE, 5% VAT applies to your rental. Daily rates are designed to be better value than stacking up hours if you plan to stay for most of the day.
Choosing the right wheelchair
Haraka carries a range of equipment so you can match the chair to the person and the day ahead. If you are unsure, the team can help you pick.
- Standard manual wheelchairs — ideal when a companion is on hand to push.
- Heavy-duty wheelchairs — extra width and higher weight capacity for added comfort.
- Powerchairs — independent, motorised control with no need to self-propel.
- Children's wheelchairs — properly sized support for younger visitors.
Kiosk locations and opening hours
Haraka kiosks are positioned inside The Dubai Mall for convenient Click & Collect, and you can drop your equipment back at any of them — handy if you exit on a different side of the venue from where you entered.
Kiosks operate daily from 10:00 to 23:00, mirroring the mall's busy hours, so there is plenty of flexibility whether you arrive for a relaxed morning or an evening by the Dubai Fountain.
Practical tips for a smooth visit
- Book ahead during weekends, school holidays and peak tourist season, when demand is highest.
- Arrive a little before your collection time so you are never rushing to a show or reservation.
- Note the nearest kiosk to your planned exit to make the return effortless.
- If your plans change, you can often extend your rental rather than racing back early.
- Stay hydrated — the mall is climate controlled, but Dubai's outdoor heat is significant if you step outside.
