subject: Dhow Cruise In Dubai Sightseeing While Dining [print this page] Having undergone such an exceptionally rapid transformation to become one of the top tourist destinations in the world, Dubai is renowned for its excellent infrastructure. Fondly referred to as the 'Gateway between the east and west', the city is the unrivalled nucleus of the Arabian Gulf region. As one of the world's most cosmopolitan metropolises, Dubai has a lot to offer the ardent leisure traveller.
Constantly on the move, this thriving city is not only a world class retail paradise but also a sightseer's dream come true. As the dusk sets in, the vicinities of Bur Dubai and Deira Dubai transform into a completely different atmosphere, with colourfully lit buildings on either side of the creek reflected in the shimmering water. Take a dhow cruise to take in the city's spectacular landscape in a whole new perspective.
A dhow is a traditional wooden boat which features an onboard restaurant offering international gourmet cuisine. Cruising down the charming Dubai Creek has always been known as a novel experience. Hop aboard a dhow to embark on such a journey during which you can treat your taste buds to an unforgettable dining experience.
Dubai Creek is the starting point of the city's immense development process. Your excursion will start once you step into the dhow warmly welcomed by the courteous crew who serve coffee, tea or a refreshing soft drink of your choice. Remain on the upper deck to relax as the sea breeze calms your nerves. Adding more colour to the experience, melodious music is played to complement the overall tranquil vibe. A magic show is also presented to keep the kids entertained while you relax. This two hour cruise is an ideal way of spending some quality time with friends and family while marvelling at such attractions as Al Makhtoum Bridge, Wind Towers of Bastakia, Sheik Saeed House and more.
