Your experience

Traditional Abra ride on the Dubai water canal

Dividing the charming ‘City of Lights’ into two commercial districts; Deira & Bur Dubai Island, Dubai Creek epitomizes the city’s personality. Here, the magnificent sophistication of the 21st Century walks hand in hand with the simplicity of a bygone era.

Hop aboard our glass-enclosed contemporary dhow which keeps the traditions alive while offering stunning views of new Dubai. Waken your senses as you gently cruise along the banks of Dubai Water Canal where the Al Faris Dhow combines the best of culinary delights with a glimpse of NEW Dubai.
