Went on the yellow boat at 6pm to see the sunset. William was our guide and he was so funny and kept us entertained throughout the ride. He shared interesting nuggets of information and took great pics. The ride was good and the captain knew how to make the journey fun. Would definitely recommend it.

It was a fabulous getaway experience in yellow boat. Highly recommended to everyone. Thank you the yellow boat team for making our experience memorable. Special mention to the tour guide for helping us taking pictures and the captain for taking care of us. We will definitely book again and experience another great adventure.

Great speedy boat tour from the Marina, out to Atlantis, the palm and the Burj. Your guide gave a few bits of info on places as well which was nice. Got 2 for 1 with entertainer app which was great. Well worth doing the tour :)

Excellent,must to do adventure activity,not for children and senior citizen or anyone with back or motion related health problems.We booked online and reached the boarding point which is hardly 10 min walk from Dubai Marina metro station.Staff were very courteous,started sharp at 6 pm,moved slowly through marina then took full throttle after bluewaters,1st stop Atlantis then Bur Al Arab and then returned back through other side of palm jumairah.Boat captain and guide,both were excellent and also helped us to get good photos.Overall totally value for money and worth experience,just book tickets through any discount booking app as we did,was almost 45 percent cheaper than booking directly from company.

We went for 99 mins Premium Tour going through iconic sights in Dubai with brilliant tour guide Gian and Captain William. You can expect wonderful pictures and a lot of fun with the crew members. Check in was so smooth with Ankit at the counter and safety was at its best. It was an amazing experience and I would definitely recommend every one. It is a must do activity if you happen to come to Dubai. Thanks a lot guys ! Keep rocking.

Fantastic! I would definitely recommend this to everyone who is visiting Dubai. Staff was very professional, and it was a very relaxing and enjoyable experience. It’s only for 99 mins but you get to see all the major landmarks. It’s a guided tour so you will get amazing information during the tour.

The experience exceeded our expectations and we were very pleased with our driver William and guide Pri. The boat was spacious and we ( family of 5) only shared it with another couple. The ride before sunset is the best!

My 14-year-old son and I had a wonderful experience. We took the 6 PM sunset boat. Highly recommend that time. Crew was very polite and helpful. Overall a wonderful experience.*Note, not recommended for people with motion sickness. Boat goes pretty fast and has a lot of movement

Review №15

Enjoyable experience, went for the full 99min package at 4pm (so you can see both day, and sunset lights), and luckily only shared the boat with one other customer.The tour guide Joy was friendly and shared some interesting anecdotes, salamat po!A few notes of advice though to put more emphasis on the beauty of the landscape:1. Please cut the, at times rather loud, music for better enjoyment of the scenery.2. Also, some more breaks would enable to soak in the scenary more, as when boat is riding, it just moves too much to take pictures along the way.3. Finally, a little less emphasis on taking the customer pictures at each stop, and making them pose in different postures would be appreciated. May I suggest customers who want can ask for it.

Had a great time exploring Dubai with The Yellow Boats, we did the Premium 99 minutes tour with Captain William and Gian.Both were very well informed and entertaining, which was a great bonus.Would highly recommend The Yellow Boats as it a great way to see some of the Dubai highlights from the water.

Review №20

We had a tour on 6 Sep 2019 at 11:00AM (Dubai Marina) with Joy as our guide and she was literally her name (a joy). She did a great job explaining everything, ensuring we all got epic pictures and checking in on us for cold water the entire tour. The captain of the vessel did a great job as well (don’t remember his name). Regardless the only annoyance to be aware of is the extreme heat and as the marina has a speed limit they have to follow it (not their fault) while entering and leaving it, I advise bringing a large hat for that section! Keep it aside for when they hit the open water at full speed! What a thrill and awesome experience. Highly recommended it for everyone.

Best boat trip Ive taken in Dubai! So beautiful, great vantage point for viewing the city. Sights youll never see from the main land. And a fun way to hit the waves! Was loads of fun! The guide, and our skipper were so attentive and knowledge while showing us the sights, and giving us some inside info. Thanks to Arun, and Varun! You made our trip one to remember.

We took the 90 min tour and it was quite enjoyable. Though the speedboat ride is a bit bumpy, but it was made fun by our guide, Mr Varun. If you want to see the main landmarks by the sea, the tour is highly recommended. Also gives great photo opportunities.

The 90 minutes trip made a lot of fun to my family. Starting from the reception till the end of the journey, our captain and guide are pleasant, helpful and made u feel safe on the boat all the time, even we were sometimes riding on the wave. A good activity that u can see Dubai buildings in different angles.

Review №25

The 99 min boat ride at 17:00 was wonderful. We got to see the beautiful harbor plus a gorgeous sunset. Raz, the driver, was great and William, the guide, was OUTSTANDING!!! I cant say enough about him!!! He was so knowledgeable about the city, and had great stories to go along. His sense of humor was great. On top of all that he took fabulous pictures and Raz, knew exactly when to slow down and when to speed up and have fun!!! I highly recommended this to everyone!!

What a wonderful tour by guide Krystelle and skipper Suresh on Saturay, 2 p.m. By chance, we even had a private tour. A lot of fun for the whole family. A great speedy drive by Suresh, but not too bumpy, and a very friendly guide Krystelle who gave a lot of infomration and took great photos. Extraordinary. It was our second tour by The Yellow Boats - 100% recommendation!

If you want to visit Dubai Marina, Marina walk, JBR, The Blue Water, Palm jumeirah then taking a boat from marina station of from marina mall is a best choice. You will see things from different angle, its an amazing experience. I recommend to do boating along with loved ones to enjoy the ride.

Review №29

The guide Adam(not sure if it’s correct, but he’s in the first pic) and William were super friendly and helpful. They gave us water twice. Sitting on a high speed boat was very exciting. I sat on the first row, it was the most bumpy seat but i didn’t feel seasick at all.I gave four stars because I felt we didn’t see much during the 75min ride. The main thing we saw was Atlantis. We booked the ticket on Klook, the price was around 190AED per person. So I think it was expensive compared to the whole day desert safari trip, which was a bit cheaper than the yellow boat trip.

Another fantastic tour to do in Dubai. I opted for the 99-minute tour which covers Atlantis, JBR Beach, and Burj Al Arab Jumeirah. From there you also have a great view of Dubais skyline and Burj Khalifa. Nuwan and Crystell were the tour guides and skipper, and they took plenty of pictures of us. Also, you will get a bottle of water. I wasnt expecting the ride to be fast, but they push the throttle which made it more excited.

Our tour was worth every bit of the 99 mins. It takes about 20 mins to get through the Marina but you dont even notice because of how amazing the views are. Our boat captain was full of knowledge and would take your photo anytime. The sea was a bit choppy but he was a pro, no one got sick.

Review №45

The excitement of riding a speedboat and spectacular views of the horizon and sea cannot be described in words. Not to mention the breathtaking views of the marina, Atlantis, Burj Al Arab and royal palaces that can be viewed from the boat, is not possible from land. I would recommend taking the full 99 min tour around sunset as the view of the sun sinking into the sea is just outstanding.

The 90 minutes tour is fabulous. Its better than a roller coaster. In summer it is teally hot on the water, but we were provided with a lot of bottles of water. Our guide was great and funny.

Re
Review №47

We had the Senior Skipper called Priyankara. He was not only an excellent and funny tour guide but also excellent at ironing out the choppy water. We would recommend sitting at the back of the boat for a smoother ride but also seeing the the front raises up when you are moving it also provides the best views.Priyankara took us on a relaxing cruise along the Dubai Marina then on to Atlantis. This was followed by a trip to the Burj Al Arab and then back to Dubai Marina.This is a great way to see some different views of Dubai Marina and Jumeirah Beach.Fully recommended.

The Yellow Boat tour is an amazing way to see Dubai. I was able to have unobstructed views of the Dubai Marina, skyline, the Atlantis, Burj Al Arab, the Sheikhs palace and the beautiful Persian Gulf.Our tour guide Crystelle (from the Philippines) was very knowledgeable about the places and stops and gave some interesting commentary. Our boat was manned by our captain Suresh who made our trip smooth and enjoyable. I sat at the front row of the boat; and although it can get bumpy at times, it does add to the thrill an experience.The only downside is that it can get very hot especially in the summer, but the staff were very helpful in providing unlimited water to ensure that we dont feel too hot.A must-do and highly recommended experience!

Went on the early morning 9am tour. Was very windy and the sea was very choppy, were advised on this before we set off which is good. Excellent views as we cruised through the marina and as theres a speed restriction here you can take in all the great buildings. Our guides and driver Ronald and William were excellent, informative and friendly and answered any questions we had. We did the value tour, its a great way to get out in the sea and see some of the great sights of Dubai.

Review №75

Took a boat ride on one if the yellow boats with my parents in March 2019. It was a horribly bumpy ride and we got soaking wet. We did not enjoy seeing the sights at all because being on the boat felt like a roller coaster ride. It ruined our day and we had to go immediately back to our hotel to shower and change afterwards. Absolutely do not recommend.

Review №79

Lack of transparency in what is included in the 60, 75 and 90 min ride. Their signature shot is of a couple being clicked by a yellow boat chap with the Burj Al Arab in the back drop. Sadly, this is not an inclusion in the 60 as well as the 75 min ride. Most of the ride in the speedboat is hardly speedy due to speed restrictions in the marina. The skyscrapers become boring after a time. In the sweltering heat, at slow speeds, not much wind, with life jacket around your neck... It is not a very exciting prospect. It gets better only after exiting the marina and at high speed, the ride is for 7-8 min to the front of the Atlantis. Few pics are clicked for everyone and it is time to return back.! Will not recommend.

Recommend to go at sunset, its a bit cooler and you get the Marina by day on the way out and by night on the way back in. Loads of amazing photos thanks to the crew, a great way to see Dubai from a different perspective. Water supplied and storage space for hand luggage. Crew was extremely friendly and professional. One of the top highlights for me in a holiday packed full of great experiences.

One of the most comfortable and interesting journey. The best part is whatever they have promised in the website exactly same things were being provided during the tour. Nuan and Juan were our tour guide and they were not only very helpful, but they explained things very well.

I recently went on this tour with my parents when they came to visit Dubai and they just loved it. I, having lived here almost 3 years by now, even still learned loads from the tour and found it really enjoyable. We had great fun speeding along the waves and Ibrahim our tour guide was so enjoyable - he was very funny and well informed and even looked out for us by telling us to hold on to our sunglasses/hats each time we went to take off again. A brilliant tour and lovely way to see Dubai from the water. Thank you!

Yellow boats is a professionally manage tour operator. Their counter is located at Dubai marina. They have three different tour packages of 45,60 and 90 minutes. Though I booked a 60 min tour online through Klook but was offered a 90 min ride for the same price. The tour starts on time and the guide was very knowledgeable and full of energy. He explained the significance of different buildings along the marine drive. He was so patient that he clicked individual photographs of each tourist at multiple places. We can see Atlantis, ferry wheel, Burj Al Arab during the tour

Really cooperative people, nicely planned and executed boat tour. Covers all the main tourist spots. Guide provides in-depth information and that too in humorous way. Makes you feel comfortable.

Me and my wife were on a speed boat ride at Marina Dubai on 14th of March with Yellow Boats.It was a wonderful and a very entertaining trip specially due to a very friendly, courteous and professional guide -Miss JOY and the captain SURESH. She described everything particularly the landmarks in a very interesting manner.Miss JOY is a very competent photographer as well. She clicked so many lovely and memorable pictures from my mobile phone.We are senior citizens but she made us feel like a young couple on a honeymoon trip.Thanks once again-JOY, SURESH and Yellow Boats.

I taken their classic route tour for the second time in my life (one few days ago, and previously 6 years ago) - and in both cases it was great experience - journey itself - very fast cruise. You will see a lot of things from the different perspective. Views on the way are great. But forget about bringing big camera with you - it will be very hard to operate on the way...
