Beautiful & relaxing sunset cruise
Beautiful and relaxing sunset cruise.
The crew is extremely hospitable; they serve coffee and snacks. The only downside is that they should have a tour guide with a mic pointing out the landmarks and sharing the history. The captain was the one speaking, and we couldn't hear him, since he didn't have a mic. But in any event, It shouldn't be the captain, it should be a tour guide!

Choppy waters
It was nice. But it could’ve been great. If there was maybe music on for maybe had an option where people can purchase light bites or even have some snacks available. It was very bumpy and choppy due to the water and obviously that is not the fault of the crew. But just having some music on board and making it a little bit lively would’ve helped.

A terrible experience
It's a terrible experience. It's nothing like what's shown on the photo. The boat was very bumpy and many of us had to hold on something on the boat to keep in balance. My son and I vomited a few times. It's nothing like the tranquillity as shown on the photo.

Good way to while away an evening.
Very good communication prior to trip. Efficient pick up from hotel. Dhow boat was comfortable. Soft drink on arrival and coffee and dates during trip. Relaxing and good photos of sunset. Saw the palace and several forts very clearly .
