Experience Abu Dhabi differently - The mooring was a bit difficult to find as it is a bit winding behind a parking lot. Our captain has already missed us and met us, which was great! We were lucky to have the boat to ourselves due to the high temperatures (mid-June). First some sightseeing, to the Ethihad Towers and then to Dolphin Island...WOW! Incredibly clear and warm water. At the top, the different water colors meet, beautifully. We had a lot of time here to swim or just relax. Afterwards we went to a smaller island Crystal Island, which was no less beautiful. The third stop was a bit longer, we got a delicious halloumi sandwich and banana chips. Musafa has given us chairs, a parasol, a mini beach volleyball field a picnic blanket and and built up, there is really something for everyone! There is a jet ski rental in the immediate vicinity, which means you can watch the more or less talented riders and if you are lucky even see gazelles :) On the way back, we pass the presidential palace, breathtakingly beautiful. We would do again at any time and thank you again for the unforgettable trip and the opportunity to explore Abu Dhabi from another side in peace!

Passenger organization - The trip had a rough start. As there were 6 of us in one boat then realized that one was for a private tour so they moved us into another boat that had 4 people in it plus 2 guides. So now this totaled 12 people on the boat. I had arrived early to get a good seat but because of this was now in the back of the boat. Most of the tour were the stops on the beaches which were lovely!! So there wasn’t as much boat time as I had anticipated. However starting off the tour that way had been a bit unsettling. Loved all 3 beaches! Wish we could have spent more time at the second one because it was the prettiest in my opinion. But they were all amazing! Super easy to get out of the boat onto the beaches. You will only get wet up to your waist if you don’t want to get all the way in.

Unresponsive - Booked on the day which was a mistake. Requested important information and did not receive a response for over two hours. Was then told the location was over an hour away and they don’t pick up which is very unusual for most tour operators. Advised them we couldn’t get there and requested a refund. They refused.
