The Dubai Creek is lined with some of Dubai’s top attractions that are a sight to behold. You’ll simply love watching them as the dhow gently floats along the Creek. You are ushered aboard the boat with a welcome drink. You can enjoy your dinner while taking in the sights and sounds of Dubai on the dhow. You’ll be spoilt for choice as the large buffet spread serving delectable Emirati cuisine looks absolutely irresistible. The icing on the cake is the lip-smacking desserts you top off your dinner with.

Enjoy foot-tapping live music and a vibrant Tanura dance show on the boat as we take you on a truly unique sightseeing experience.
