Went with my bf and honestly, the view from the upper deck was EPIC! We waited a while before the boat actually moved (like, almost 45 mins just sitting at the dock) but once we got going, the city lights were gorgeous. Food was just ok – kinda lukewarm but plenty of it. The whirling dervish guy was suuuper impressive. Would skip the dessert next time but def worth it for the vibes.

Took my parents for their anniversary. Staff were all smiles, made my folks feel special. Got a window table! Show was a bit cheesy but fun, esp the tanoura dancer. Food wasn’t fancy, but tasted fresh. Pro tip: get there early or you’re stuck in the back.

SOOO much fun! The show was hilarious – esp when they pulled ppl up to dance. Went with 4 friends, we laughed the whole time. Food was just ok, but tbh we barely noticed. Staff let us hang out on the top deck after everyone else went inside.

    Fun for a group night. The singer had everyone clapping along. Food was ok, but we really came for the show. Nice views from the side windows.

    Family night out was a HIT! Kids loved the show, esp the guy spinning for like 10 minutes straight. Food was fresh, staff checked in on us. Would go again.

    Not bad, not great. Felt a bit rushed at dinner and the best tables were reserved. Show was lively. Would’ve liked more info on landmarks.

    Meh, honestly expected more. The staff were nice but the boat felt old. The show was the main draw. Food was nothing special.
