About the cruise

During the evening cruise, we follow the route in such a manner that we can fully admire the sunset in front of the famous Burj Khalifa skyscraper.

In 2017, a dozen new attractions appeared in Dubai — all sorts of parks, futuristic bridges, embankments, skyscrapers, and restaurants. They are located on the banks of the Dubai Canal, the most grandiose creation of recent years. The tour takes you on a unique canal cruise from the Dubai Creek to the Business Bay area. For an even deeper dive into Arabian culture during the Dubai Creek boat tour, the ordinary modern boat will be replaced by the traditional Abra boat.

Details of the Dubai canal cruise:

  • Cruise on the oldest water cab — the traditional Arab boat Abra. 
  • English-guided tour.
  • Refreshments for each guest included in the ticket price.
  • A unique route along the largest artificial canal in the UAE. 
  • The cruise sails in small groups of up to 20 people.
  • Business Bay Bridge
  • Dubai Festival City Mall
  • Business Bay Area
  • Burj Khalifa
  • Design District
  • Ras Al Khor Sanctuary

The route 

The Abra boat rides in Dubai usually begin at the harbour next to the Dubai Festival City Mall. The boat will sail directly along the canal past the Design District, Ras Al Khor Sanctuary, and the world-famous Burj Khalifa skyscraper. The length of the route is more than 3 kilometers. The boat returns the same way back to the original starting point.

The boat

The Abra boats are one of the most traditional ways to get around town in Dubai. For many years, locals have been using them as a cab: these boats are very maneuverable, making them ideal for city-commuting, allowing you to get to the destination point while keeping all the timings. A boat ride on the Dubai Canal is a great way to experience the culture of the Emirate and the lives of the local people.
