More than we expected!

Highly recommended. If you like sunsets, you’ll catch the sunset by Burj Khalifa and can take some beautiful pics. The two gentleman who run the boat are very courteous. They went over and above what one would expect in a boat ride. Took photos of us and also let us drive the boat (supervised). We also came along the swans walking elegantly along the coast.

Nice views

Very friendly staff, typical local wooden boat. Nice views, 1 hour cruise is timed well to go near enough Burj Khalifa to take good photos.

Lovely boat trip

Fantastic boat ride, very chilled as we had the entire boat to ourselves. It’s a basic trip but perfect if you want a lovely way of seeing Dubai at sunset.

You get what you pay for

Lovely crew and my son got to drive the boat which made him happy. Not what I thought it would be but that’s my own fault for not researching more. Quite boring.,,

Fabulous

This was a fabulous last minute decision tour!! I was in Dubai for 10 hrs and tried to get done all I could. They were so gracious; I accidentally booked for the next night, but they let me go out anyway. They made the trip so spectacular with the view of the city right as the sun was going down. Best value for your money!! Just do it!!
