Nice - I had an amazing experience on the dinner cruise last night! From start to finish, it was a perfect evening. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure we were comfortable and well taken care of throughout the night. The cruise itself offered stunning views, especially as the sun set over the water. It was absolutely breathtaking.

The boat was clean and well-maintained, and the vibe was both elegant and casual, making it a great choice for any occasion, whether it’s a romantic date or a fun night with friends. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and I would highly recommend this dinner cruise to anyone looking for a special night out on the water!

Was an amazing experience . We had high hopes on Nexa Tourism's gesture. Were really floored by their this gesture . Thank you - Dear Friends,  We just returned back from the Dhou Cruise which was totally free ride from your end.  At the outset, thank you very much for giving us the Free Dhou Cruise vouchers.  We enjoyed upto our brim. It was a great experience for us in Dubai. The Cruiser was high class,  neat n cleanly maintained. The dinner had many varieties. Especially for the Vegetarians atleast 5/5 dishes were there. Which's a rare phenomena in the UAE . We are thankful and Grateful to Siva, Tejas and Mohammad for your kind hospitality when we had approached your Goodselves for the above ride.  Highly looking forward to have a long standing association with NEXA Tourism.  Thanks a million yet again.  Warm regards Nagesh Kamath

Genuine price charged for this activity. Not expensive like other cruise - Good experience. When we visited it wasn't overly crowded. Boat was neat and clean. Reached 1 hour ahead and walked almost 30 minutes to find the location. Food was OK not great and there was a dance program that thoroughly entertained. Boat started and ended on time. Overall very good experience and enjoyable.
