TravelDecember 6, 2011Written by Oliver Stevenson392 views
The water has always been fascinating to us as it occupies 70% of the Earth’s surface. This is why water is always alternative landscape and viewpoint. Dubai has a vast and varied landscape for tourists. Other than the sea, the Dubai Creek and Dubai Marina have grown to be important waterscapes for the cities development and interest.
Tourists are spoilt for choice when it comes to things to see. A dhow cruise in Dubai offers these interesting landmarks from a waterscape giving you the best opportunity to snap photos whilst leisurely cruising with the added calming effects of the water. A Sightseeing Dhow Cruise in Dubai is a one hour cruise on a traditional Arabian Dhow boat with complimentary refreshments for those wishing to experience the new landscape of Dubai (Dubai Marina) or the heritage of the City (Dubai Creek). Tourists can sit back and relax as the moving view takes over as they sip on a refreshing cold beverage while the day shots of the city pass them by.
The most popular way to do a Dhow Cruise Dubai however is at night. The nightscape offers beautifully lit buildings, gliding dhows passing by which are also lit up by colorful lights, leaving tourists mesmerized with soft music playing in the background. Not only is the Dhow Cruise Dubai catered to tourists looking to catch a night view of the city, but those who want to have a gourmet dinner with a moving view can eat to their hearts content on a Dhow Dinner Cruise in Dubai. Unlimited soft drinks, tea coffee and mineral water, pick and drop service, unlimited international buffet dinner and payable hard drinks at the bar are included for a very economical price.
Even residents choosing a venue for dinner choose to go a on a dhow dinner cruise due to the value for money and the moving view. Most regular restaurants don’t offer you a complimentary pick up and drop service and defiantly not at an economical price!
The new location at the Dubai Marina even offers a special treat to a guest (not available on the Dubai Creek). A belly dance show after dinner is sure to get your blood pumping for the evening!
Dhow dinner cruises are very popular on weekends and holidays, so it is advisable to book your trip before arriving into Dubai to ensure you can book on the day you like. There are fewer than 20 Dhow Cruise Dubai operators with floating restaurants on the Dubai Creek and only 2 Dhow Cruise operators at Dubai Marina. Select a good dhow cruise operator and always check the menu and caterer in advance to ensure you enjoy your dinner as well as the sights before you.
