Dhow dinner cruise

The best way to learn about a country is to start with its history. Oriental culture has always been something vibrant and colorful for us, so every tour and trip arouses our interest. In this regard, Dubai has advanced significantly; in one evening, you can immerse yourself in the atmospheres of the past and the future. The Tanura, an Arabian dervish dance, and the Dhow, a beautiful Arabian boat, will take you back in time, while the truly royal district Dubai Marina will take you to the future.

Specifics of Dubai Marina dhow cruise with dinner:

• A romantic sunset cruise that will submerge you in the colors of the UAE.
• Buffet dinner (non-alcoholic beverages are included).
• Performance of a professional dancer of traditional Arabic dance called Tanura.
• Live music and a vocalist performance throughout the evening.
• A ride on a traditional Arab Dhow boat with open and closed decks. 
• A route around the Dubai Marina area's main attractions.

The route

The cruise departs from the pier near Al Sayorah Street. From there, we will sail towards the JBR creek, past the snow-white Al Rahim Mosque and the shining Sparkle Towers skyscrapers. Next, we will head under the Bluewaters pedestrian bridge to see the Dubai Eye, the largest Ferris wheel in the world, out into the creek and past the JBR and Marina beaches before heading back to the jetty of the historic Dubai Marina district. 

The boat

The dhow is a traditional Arabian boat dating back to the times of the Roman Empire. The Arabs thought that if a ship contained at least one metal component, it could be drawn to the seabed. Therefore, only natural materials were used in the construction: bamboo, local varieties of acacia, coconut, and teak wood. Dhow boats are still being constructed today as they are an essential part of Arab culture. Nevertheless, their modern versions have metal parts and propellers — a tribute to modern technology. The ship has two decks—open and closed. You can have a table on the terrace or on the deck with panoramic windows. The show takes place on the lower deck, while the upper deck offers you the opportunity to enjoy the lights of Dubai at night.
