Absolutely magical! The Dubai Fountain Lake Ride is an unforgettable experience. Gliding across the water right in front of the Burj Khalifa feels surreal — and the best part is that the boats always wait for the fountain show to begin, so you don’t miss a single second of the spectacle. The music, the lights, the reflections on the lake — everything is pure magic. Mega cool and totally worth it!

A beautiful and clean Yatch by Exclusive yatch club of dubai. Spectacular view of Dubai night life as well as skylines. Just 2 hour Yatch ride which start from Dubai Marina having Dj songs, soft drinks as well as good barbecue food with fruits and sweets like small cup cakes. Lovely atmosphere and cool breeze

Pretty good experience, queues are a bit messy but the staff do generally run a smooth operation. Your experience is probably a bit luck dependent, our boat driver found a great spot for us to see the show, but another boat rider came and stopped in front of ours, prompting ours to move. Still overall would recommend!

Good destination to end your trip in Dubai. With relaxing music and amazing dancing fountain with the lake ride and amazing view of Burj Khalifa. Even weekdays it was busy in this area, January is a peak season for tourist. It is also located beside Dubai Mall where you can find good stuff to buy and lots of toilets. Must come back here.

Though as an ordinary lake ride, it was a good experience lazing around the water alleys surrounding Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall, it wasn't worth the price when combined with the fountain show. On the lake ride, at times it was difficult to get a complete view of the fountain show, blocked by the height of the Abra, though it promises a front row experience. The musical fountain show could have been much better enjoyed from the promenade podiums (must get in early to get the best viewing spot).

Highlights

  • Cruise the Burj Lake on a traditional abra boat for an unforgettable front-row view of the iconic Dubai Fountain Show.

  • Witness the world’s largest choreographed fountain system light up the night with thousands of lights and gallons of airborne water.

  • Glide past famous glowing landmarks like the Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, and Souk Al Bahar, all under the city lights.
