⚡ Instant confirmation📱 Mobile ticket
Spend an evening on the water in the very heart of Dubai.
The cruise follows the Dubai Water Canal — the man-made waterway that links the old Dubai Creek with the Arabian Gulf.
You sail aboard a contemporary dhow with a glass-enclosed hall and an open deck: the mood of the evening is yours to choose.
As the vessel glides past the illuminated promenades, an international buffet is served on board.
The towers of Business Bay, the mirrored waterfall of the Sheikh Zayed Bridge and the silhouette of the Burj Khalifa pass by in turn.
An unhurried pace, accomplished cooking and the finest evening panorama of the city.
What to Expect
A contemporary dhow: a traditional-form vessel with a glass-enclosed hall and an open deck.
International buffet: mezze and salads, a live pasta station, meat and seafood grills, desserts and beverages.
The Dubai Water Canal: a route along illuminated promenades, footbridges and the Marasi Bay marina.
Sheikh Zayed Bridge waterfall: Dubai's first sensor-operated waterfall bridge — a striking shot straight from the deck.
Business Bay panorama: evening views of the city's business district and the Burj Khalifa from the water.
Perfect For
A romantic evening: the lit-up city beyond the panoramic window.
A first visit to Dubai: the city's landmark views and dinner in a single programme.
Family time: a gentle route, a buffet for every taste and generous deck space.
Special occasions: an anniversary, a birthday or a proposal on the water.
An evening with La Perle: the cruise can be combined with a ticket to Dubai's signature show.
Please note: All tour tickets are non-refundable once issued. Please review your booking details carefully before completing your purchase.
