Dubai Canal: Sightseeing Abra Cruise

It's not just any old wooden boat, it's a traditional Abra, and it's the oldest form of public transport in Dubai. These long, sturdy vessels enabled the movement of men and materials between the two shores of the creek, known as Deira and Bur Dubai. Hop aboard and awaken your senses to the culture that graces the banks as you gently cruise along Dubai Canal. You'll get spectacular views of Downtown Dubai, Burj Khalifa, Mohammed Bin Rashid Library and more from a whole new angle. Choose an evening tour and witness the golden sunset from the water. Complete with taped commentary, the Abra rides are truly a unique way to experience Dubai.
