Popular Boat Tours & River Cruises in Dubai

My fiancee and I had an awesome time on the 1.5 hr tour that took us from just north of Kite Beach past Burj Al Arab, Marina area and Palm Jumeirah up to Atlantis. Our guide took photos of us at the major sights and let us have a good amount of freedom to ride around, but warned us about restricted areas and speed enforcement areas so we didn't get fined. This would usually be too pricey for me, but I like to jet ski and thought it was a unique way to see the upscale hotels from the water and I don't regret it. My fiancee was hesitant and wasn't sure it'd be worth it, but she changed her mind and loved it. I recommend going as early in the day as possible (our tour was at 9am) so the UV index isn't too high. The water is nice and warm. All safety gear and bottled water is provided.

The date of the schedduled activity we went on the marina port at the hour shown on the activity tiket with mine wife and mine one year baby . There was no person there to explain us where was the boat. We suddenly knew by a phone call made by us that the bout left without even informing us or telling us that we should be 30 minutes earlier than the hour shown on tiket. Despite of all the bad moments due to this misunderstanding the company changed the date of the activity without any cost and this time with this new information we came 30 minutes earlier to the hour shown on the tiket, that time the boat was there . The activity itself is very nice and very good prepared, the boat is very luxuri and the launch was very nice .

The 2 guys that ran our tour were so professional, friendly and fun. They made the trip a great experience - and the whole boat was laughing and having fab time. They helped everyone to get great pictures, made us all scream in delight at their driving skills and boat tricks. It was brilliant as well that they gave everyone water throughout the tour. I would highly recommend this tour - it was just FANTASTIC - well organised and a great experience. They also were very informative about all the sights we saw.

5* for the experience, amazing day and the best activity to do in Dubai. 0* for directions to the meeting place. Changed two hours before via email - if I did not have internet access I would not have seen this - and then very vague instructions on where to meet. No name of the place, just "behind Miraj Islamic centre, near KFC." Absolutely abysmal, walked around for half an hour looking for the place.

Best to book the late afternoon or early morning slot as it is ROASTING during the mid-day. Sit in middle or the back of the boat unless your desperate to experience all the bumps and get soaked (we sat at the back). Great service from the experienced captain and deputy.
