From the Waldorf, buggies will bring you to the AHIC Village from right outside the swimming pool.
If you’re driving, valet service is available at the AHIC Village entrance, just follow the signage.
If you’re staying at the DoubleTree by Hilton Resort & Spa Marjan, shuttle service is available each morning of the three-day event.
