Yacht tours in Dubai

The magnificent Arabian Gulf waterfront is one of the highlights of the city, and there are few better ways to explore it than on a Dubai yacht tour. Boating companies across Dubai offer trips which take in some of the city's key landmarks such as Atlantis, The Palm and the Burj Al Arab. While some offer hotel pick up for your boat tour in Dubai, most include either breakfast or a barbecue (depending on the time of your tour) along with complimentary drinks.

Where to book your Dubai yacht tour

Xclusive Yachts offer public boat trips in Dubai which take in many of the key landmarks such as Dubai Marina, Bluewaters Island, Palm Jumeirah and the Burj Al Arab. There are six tours a day, with popular options including the afternoon tour, and the sunset trip. Each of their boat cruises in Dubai includes a red carpet departure (with the opportunity for photographs), as well as a delicious breakfast or barbecue, and drinks for all. For a bespoke tour, Xclusive Yachts also offer plenty of options including everything from 22ft boats to 125ft houseboats  accommodating any sized group. Each vessel is assigned its own captain and quality crew so that you can enjoy a safe, easy and comfortable cruise along the waters.

Alternatively, all Centaurus Charter tours offer similar packages, which start from the dock at Dubai Harbour, and take in plenty of landmarks as well as offering additional activities such as fishing excursions, jet-skiing, parasailing, banana boating and even flyboarding for those who want to spread their wings above the ocean.

How much do Dubai yacht tours cost?

Prices usually start from around AED210 for adults, and AED160 for children, and vary depending on the time of day. Alternatively, if you are travelling with a large group of people, you might want to consider chartering your own yacht, which can often cost a similar price to the public tours when dividing the cost of the rental between a large group. The yachts also come with a team of professionals with the exciting opportunity to create your own bespoke itinerary.
