Lovely Dubai Marina Cruise Dinner - A beautiful night on the Dubai Marina dinner cruise. The boat was clean and relaxing. Buffet dinner was tasty with many choices. The entertainment show and Tanoura dance were fun to watch. Perfect way to enjoy the Marina skyline and calm waters. Highly recommend this dhow cruise dinner in Dubai.

Magical Evening on the Marina Dinner Cruise – A Must-Do in Dubai! - We had a truly magical evening on the Marina Dinner Cruise — a highlight of our Dubai trip! From the warm welcome aboard the beautifully lit dhow to cruising past the glittering skyline of Dubai Marina, everything was perfect. The ambiance was elegant, the buffet dinner was delicious with a great variety, and the Tanoura dance performance added a special cultural touch. Service was smooth and attentive throughout. Whether for a romantic night or a relaxing family outing, this cruise is a must-do in Dubai. ★★★★★

Amazing Experience. Marina Cruise Dinner Dubai - I went on Dubai Marina dhow cruise and really enjoyed it. The Carnival cruise was beautiful, with lights and music that made the evening feel special. Many guests started dancing with the music and had great fun. The views of the Marina from upper deck at night were amazing—everything looked so bright and peaceful from the water. The staff were kind and helpful the whole time. They made sure everyone was comfortable and having a good time. Dinner was nice too—good variety of food, and there was something for everyone. They also served water, soft drinks, and had some light desserts. The ride was smooth, and it didn’t feel crowded. It was a relaxing way to see Dubai from a different angle. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something calm, scenic, and a little different from the usual tourist spots. Great for couples, families, or even just a chill night out.

Dinner Cruise in Marina with ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐ Experience - Our experience on the Marina Dinner Cruise was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we boarded, the service was impeccable—friendly, attentive, and truly made us feel special throughout the evening. The food was exquisite, with each course perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. And the view? Absolutely breathtaking! Cruising along the water as the sun set and the city lights twinkled in the distance was a sight to behold. This is an experience not to be missed—we’ll definitely be back!

Full of Entertainment - Great atmosphere, lovely decoration, and lighting, very clean, delicious cuisine... Overall, the service was excellent. The boat took off precisely on time, and dinner was ready immediately after. Everything went smoothly. The food was tasty and diverse. The Tanura Dance was new to me. Enjoyed the whole trip a lot. Highly recommended for all age groups.

A little disappointing - Advertised as luxury cruise with a show. The staff and dinner was nice, toilets ran out of paper and whilst there was a saxophone player who was very good, that wasn’t a show. Also cruised passed the wheel and back to dock, didn’t go past the palm as expected.

Avoid this cruise at all costs - Exceptionally poor service. Food (buffet style, which to be fair was quite good) was constantly running short, no information on dishes, allergies or whether vegetarian option, no clear order on queues or when to go to eat, no table numbers and at very least 50 people on top cruise and 50-60 more downstairs. Consequently crowded, busy, loud and utterly chaotic. Moreover no drop off and pick up service from many hotels making getting the cruise boat challenging if you are new to Dubai with many taxis finding it hard to find and no any close public transport amenities in close proximity to harbour. On a positive note, the dancing was well choreographed, culturally authentic and enjoyable with the gorgeous night time Dubai skyline breathtaking.

Disappointing experience. - The meeting point for the Dhow Dinner Cruise 4 years ago was at the Marina and was well organized with a variety of cuisines for our dinner. This cruise met at the harbour and was not well organized, there were hundreds of people waiting for different trips and none of the staff could tell with any degree of certainty which queue you should join. When we did board and food was prepared, we realized that the only food on offer was Indian cuisine, and also realized that we were the only Europeans in the boat, so that's probably the reason. The cruise itself was ok, with the fantastic dancer whirling round&round all lit up, don't know how he did it! Had we been informed of the meeting point and the cuisine before hand, we would not have booked. Very disappointing.
