Pairing a sightseeing cruise with a proper dinner is one of the easiest ways to see Dubai Marina at its best, and the Alexandra has been doing exactly that for more than a decade. She is a traditional wooden dhow fitted out as a floating restaurant, and her crew knows every turn of the marina.

The route shows off some of Dubai's most famous waterfront views: the tower-lined marina channel, the twisting Cayan Tower, the JBR beachfront, Bluewaters Island with Ain Dubai, and the yachts of Dubai Harbour.

Dinner is a full buffet with a live BBQ grill, served throughout the sailing. Soft and alcoholic drinks can be ordered from the bar at an extra cost, and a live entertainment programme runs on board while you cruise.
