Abu Dhabi Dhow Cruise Dinner

Enjoy an evening on the Abu Dhabi waterfront aboard a traditional wooden dhow. The experience combines city views with a relaxed cruise and the dining services confirmed for the selected vessel.

The active Friends Guide Travel & Tourism package is Dhow Cruise Abu Dhabi at AED 120 per adult. The boarding marina, route, sailing time and dinner details must be confirmed for the selected date because Abu Dhabi cruises can operate from different waterfront locations.

What to Expect

Guests normally arrive before departure for check-in and boarding. The cruise may last around two hours within a total activity window of two to three hours. Depending on the confirmed operator, the package can include a welcome drink, buffet dinner, soft beverages and scheduled entertainment.

Do not rely on generic references to Corniche landmarks, a DJ, live cooking, belly dancing or a specific deck. Vessel facilities and entertainment programmes vary and can change during religious occasions or under government rules.

Boarding and Transfers

The final voucher must show the exact marina, map pin, reporting time and contact number. Hotel pickup is not included unless a pickup location and time are written on the confirmation. Guests arriving independently should allow extra time for evening traffic and parking.

Visitors planning a full day in the capital can combine the evening cruise with our Abu Dhabi city tour. General destination information is available from the official Visit Abu Dhabi website.

What to Wear

Smart-casual, respectful clothing and comfortable shoes are suitable. Bring a light layer for air-conditioned lower decks or cooler evenings. Families should supervise children near stairs, railings and boarding areas.
