Extremely irresponsible!

Dinner cruise was canceled due to mechanical issues with boat. Company never notified us of cancelation in advance. Extremely irresponsible. Would definitely not recommend!

Terrible service, not even enough good for the passengers.
JoseJ_M

Ship was good looking, food was terrible and not even enough for the passengers. Service was terrible as well to the point that the person seating us was arguing with me because I told him my name and he told me I was wrong? So what are you supposed to say to that. He was very condescending, impolite and rushed. So I wouldn’t recommend this tour at all. I would recommend to just come down to the marina no reservation and take your pick they are dozens of nice boats that would be thrilled to tend to you. The only good thing to say about the experience was the show.

The Dubai Creek is more exciting during the day than at night. The food was average at best. The entertainment had a great singer and one outstanding performance out of three performers. If you want the free transportation, get it in writing and hope they show up. I sent two emails looking for the pickup time, stating our date and hotel. I also got confirmation of a half hour window for pickup but no-one showed up.

We really enjoy the cruise and the food but the only negative thing is that when we came to have dessert nothing was left except fruits. I asked for dessert I was told it will be coming but never came.
