There are two roads from the north leading to the oasis region. The main road branches off the E11 motorway near Tarif. From there on it is about an hour drive passing Madinat Zayed on a well maintained paved road.
Settlements in the oasis region are lined up on the only big road like a pearls on a string. If you arrive from Tarif the road ends in Mezzaira'a on this particular road.
At the eastern end of the oasis region a new road connects straight back to the E11 motorway close to Abu Dhabi.
A gas station is located on the E11 less than a mile east of the Liwa Oasis exit.

The small settlement of Tal Mireb is south of the other settlements and while the settlement itself is not interesting the way makes up for everything. Few cars use the road as virtually nobody lives along it. You will bump into more camels than people. In addition it is one of the roads were only few trees and overland power lines spoil the view.
To get to Tal Mireb road follow the brown signs as shown in the picture. Markers can be found along the main road as well as the roundabouts in Mezzaira'a. It's a one mile drive to the road from the main roundabout in Mezzaira'a.
