    I had an amazing experience on the Dubai Creek Dhow Cruise! The atmosphere was magical with beautiful views of the city lights reflecting on the water. The dinner was delicious with a great variety of dishes, and the highlight of the night was definitely the Tanura dance performance—it was mesmerizing and truly unforgettable. Highly recommended for a memorable evening in Dubai!

    The cruise was ok ,but the music was not to our taste very loud with a lot of base . Food was ok ,but the dancer was very good ,as for the tickets experience well it would have been helpful if you gave us the name of the boat instead of us having to go along from boat to boat asking

    Great ticketing experience via headout. Good experience on the dhow cruise. decent vegetarian food options. would have been great if there was a guide etc who would tell us about the sights we were seeing along the cruise as tourists.. overall good.
  • Sail into the heart of Dubai

    The cruise departs from Deira, where you'll check in at the Dubai Creek pier. Right off the bat, you'll be welcomed with fresh juices, aromatic Arabian coffee, and dates. After the warm welcome, hop onto the sleek, modern dhow, beautifully transformed into a floating restaurant. As you set sail, the charming sights of Old Dubai come to life around you: the historic Al Fahidi Neighborhood with its iconic wind towers, offering a striking contrast to the modern skyline; the Deira Clocktower; and the Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum House are just a few to name.

    Feast for your eyes (and belly!)

    The cruise features a lavish international buffet bursting with flavors – from savory Indian dishes and classic Italian fare to local Arabic specialties. Your dinner is just the beginning of the fun. Watch the amazing Tanoura dance, where performers spin in colorful skirts. It's unique, interactive, and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. Pick your preferred spot, either on the lower or upper deck, and remember, you can always upgrade to include hotel transfers for an even smoother evening.
