1.00The worst. I was scheduled to do this tour at 7pm with pick up and drop off. I waited for the driver for almost an hour and the driver never showed up. So I'm reaching out to get a refund.

5.00This will be a cruise you will remember all your life. Your guide, crew and captain are all very hospitable and serve you with a smile. The ride aboard the authentic Dhow boat is smooth and quiet. You hear more of the bow skimming through the water that motor noise. The hour and a half seems just right for sightseeing, visiting and enjoying your fill of dinner. There are several delicious dishes for you to enjoy with plenty to go back several times for more. Each dish from the bbq chicken and shish kabobs to the curry offerings and hummus— just to name some of what is served are each very tasty and satisfying.

5.00I loved the attention. The organization took care to contact me with caution to avoid the traffic, as a parallel event was taking place. The food was top, with a diverse menu.
