Fabulous views from ferry looking back at Dubai skyline, unbelievable scenery, good photographic opportunities. Passing the Atlantis Hotel , could sit inside or stand on deck if necessary. was well worth the cost which wasn't very much considering the fantastic views.

Booked a silver class ticket for the Dubai ferry experience. (50aed) location is near the Marina Mall, a 5 minute walk from the mall. Exit onto the promenade from the mall and head towards the carrefour supermarket and you are on the right track. Went for the 5pm trip. The previous one was at 330pm. Was advised to arrive 10...

Travelled twice by the dubai ferry. The first one was at the dubai marina trip which passes by the skyline of dubai marina in the background and goes around the palm jumeirah with scenic views of jumeirah zabeel saray, kempinski and atlantis the palm. You can also see burj al arab and jumeirah beach hotel from there. Outstanding trip..... The... More

You can either sit inside the ferry and enjoy the spectacular view or stand... More

This was a great value ride that took us out of the Marina up to the Atlantis Hotel on the Palm. Gave us a different perspective on this great city and only cost £10 for a 1 hour trip. Well worth it.

The Dubai Ferry is a wonderful little excursion you can take from Bur Dubai at the Al Ghubaiba Marine Station, or from the Dubai Marina. To get to the Ferry in Bur Dubai, take the Metro (Green Line) to the Al Ghubaiba Metro Station. Walk east from the station, approx 200 yards, to the Al Ghubaiba Marine Station, next to... More

We bought a gold class ticket, in order to go up front on the boat, but you're only allowed out on the front deck while sailing out of the marina and into the marina. The leather seats in the gold class cabin was nice and wide, but we didn't use them much, because we we're busy enjoying the ride from... More

the views quality through the ferry windows are bad so you need to go on the back of the ship to see everything. choose the trip from Quibaiba to the World
