About this activity

The Dhow cruise allows you to experience the contrast between old and new Dubai. On one side, you have modern skyscrapers and iconic structures like the Burj Khalifa, and on the other, you have the historic and traditional architecture of Old Dubai. This blend of tradition and modernity is unique to Dubai and is beautifully showcased during the cruise. Dubai Creek offers a picturesque setting, especially during sunset and in the evening when the city lights up. The reflections on the water, combined with the skyline, create a stunning visual experience. Dining on a traditional wooden boat under the stars is a unique and memorable experience. The gentle breeze and calm waters of the creek provide a peaceful and serene environment. It's a great way to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and unwind while enjoying the sights and sounds.
