Highly recommended if you have it on the fence. We did Dinner Dhow Cruise in Dubai Marina in Dubai. Sit on the open side if you can. Indoor seating misses the point. It felt busy and that takes the edge off photos. Worth the ticket.

Customer Reviews
Enjoyable, not perfect. Book the slot you actually want. Walk-ins looked messy. Food on dinner cruises is never the star. The lighting and the view are. Queues after security were slower than the ride/attraction itself. Still glad we went.

Mixed feelings. Being on the water with the marina / skyline sliding past is still one of the better evenings here. Service was attentive and the evening moved at a relaxed pace. Signage at the entrance could be clearer for first-timers. Choose a better slot / day and it might improve.
I can see why people like it, but it did not quite land for us. We did Dinner Dhow Cruise in Dubai Marina in Dubai. Dress code / arrival instructions were clear. No surprises at the door. Choose a better slot / day and it might improve.
