a lovely enjoyable experience,just a pity that the boat was only half full,the service on board excellent ,yes the drink is pricey but your in dubai . Overall from the lovely food to the entertainment we couldnt fault it .And the wonderful views along the journey ,when we return we will certainly revisit this boat value for money..

I tried numerous times to telephone this operator to book the cruise however the telephone is always unavailable. Obviously they have lost my custom and cannot be bothered with running a proper business.

We chose to do our Dhowboat Dinner Cruise on Dubai Creek through Al Mansoor which is operated through the Radisson Blu Hotel. This was a particularly nice dhowboat, as some of the operators have plastic chairs and tables, whereas this one had lovely upholstered seating and tables with tablecloths. Be sure to double check with your Dinner Cruise operator as... More

It was very beautiful cruising in the Dubai creek soaking in the views of the old and new city. But it was marred by the sub par food we were served on board. Food was tasteless, stale and not warm enough. Avoid this thing in summer as you will be roasted if you sit on the top, even in evenings.... More

It was my last night in Dubai, I and my fiance decided to do the Dhow dinner cruise. I particularly loved the Attires the waiters wore...it had an Egyptian look. We were served refreshments upon arrival. Then we had the Buffet dinner. The meals were good but not the best I had in the whole of Dubai. The most exciting... More
