99 Minutes Premium Tour : Dubai Marina, Atlantis & Burj Al Arab

Excellent tour guide Joy who was really knowledgeable about sights and spent time capturing pictures of me and my son with captain William driving the boat at fun speeds.

We went on the yellow boats early June. William and Joy were our hosts. What can I say, they were amazing. They gave us a fantastic experience with plenty of facts and history of Dubai. It was hot and there was endless water for us. Joy took loads of photos with fab iconic Dubai in the backgrounds. William would give us much needed splashes from turning the boat etc and made the boat ride fun. I would highly, highly recommend this tour.

The boat trip was excellent. It began with a relaxed cruise through the marina, which was stunning, followed by a high-speed run out to the Palm, seriously quick! The tour guide was engaging, knowledgeable and kept it entertaining and funny throughout. We managed to get some brilliant photos and had a really good time. Would definitely recommend!!!

We did the yellow boat ride yesterday at 5.00pm which allowed us to also experience nice sunset. The boat ride was fast but the captain was skilled and managed to draw a fine balance between extreme fast steering and the level of comfort passengers normally like. The tour allowed us to have photo stops at the Atlantis, Burj Khalifa and one with the sun setting in the background. Prince and the Captain (forgot his name) were very hospitable and some of the information provided was good - until we took the ride I had no idea that all the 40 properties on JMB area were built together - :4 residences and 6 hotels. This was a great ride that you should experience. Munir Daya

Vary nice tour, one of our highlights. We had the luck that it was more or less a private tour. My wife and I where the only passengers. Many thanks to Captain William and his guide Ruben, we received a lot of info and had the opportunity the make the tour personal (change standard route) The speed of the boat was in open waters exciting (60 km’s /h) but we never feel unsafe (safety instruction before departure and equipment looked well maintained) If there is a possibility ask for Wiliam and Ruben

We had a fabulous time, Jon our guide was brilliant, he was funny, had stories to tell and informative about buildings we past. The water was a bit choppy but it didn’t stop us having a great time. We got given water a couple of times on the trip, which was welcome. The views we got of the Atlantis and Burj al Arab were fantastic. And Jon was quote “our photographer for the trip” He took as many or as little amount of photos on your phone for you as you wanted. Well recommended trip at sunset! 🌅

We were fully satisfied with the tour. Firstly, the staff was amazing. Really nice, friendly and helpful with photos. They also shared some great trivia and info about the area. The ride was fun! Quite an adventure and we had stops to take picture on the best spots. Overall, everything was well organised, amazing people and worth both your time and price. I can only recommend!

I went on this tour with my mum and we had a fantastic time!The boat was fast and fun giving us a great tour of the marina and coast line. Our tour guide Sherin and skipper Captain William both had amazing knowledge of the area and looked after us all along the journey giving us lots of water and taking great photos of us along the way making this an unforgettable must do Dubai adventure!

Easy and fun! The meeting spot at the Marina was easy to find, the crew was great, the tour was affordable, and the activity was excellent. We were on the last tour of the day, at 6pm, so enjoyed the sunset while touring. Our stay in Dubai was short and found that this tour was the most efficient way to see the marina and Palm. Loved it.

Trip can be a bit bouncy up the front. Otherwise nice to get an idea of buildings. Staff very good as well

From the off set we knew this would be fun. There was only the 3 of us and another couple so was a really good experience. Our guide had lots of information and was very friendly from the offset, also very professional sharing all legalities along with health and safety guidance as the boat took off out the marina. Our guide had so much information sharing all he knew and answering all our questions. Once out the marina where we gained speed the fun began! Lots of foto opportunities too. Guide and captain of the boat kept the journey fun.

The yellow boat was a fun and excellent way to see some awesome sites in Dubai. Seeing them from the water on a comfortable speed boat was great. During the trip you stop for excellent photos which your guide assists you with. The ride was not dangerous at all. Highly recommend this tour.

Great way to see the main sites via a unique viewing position. Guide is very informative and given plenty of photo opportunities. Only gripe is even though the water onboard is unlimited it needed to be colder. It was an extremely hot day when we went out but the water bottles were warm so didn’t really help in keeping us cool.

This was definitely a highlight of our visit. The guys are very friendly , there’s an unlimited supply of bottled water and being on the boat is a nice refreshment in the hot Dubai temperatures. We would absolutely do this again!

Our tour guide was had lots to tell you and not sounding like it was the same old. Also took some great pictures for us. Also brought water for us.

Amazing experience. Our guide John and our Captain Winnie made the trip so much fun and exhilarating. John gave us the history of many of the iconic areas of Dubai whilst Captain Winnie went full throttle between the different sites! Highly recommend - everyone connected with the company were friendly and courteous. We got caught up in the infamous Dubai traffic - worried that they wouldn't let us on the boat. No problems at all - told us not to worry. We got to see Dubai Marina, Ain Dubai, Atlantis and Burj Arab - totally different experience from the water! Lots of photo opportunities Don't hesitate to book with Yellow Boats - John will make sure you have lots of laughs and will make lots of stops to take photos for you. I asked him to make a pose for me in front of Atlantis....he was brilliant. Fantastic!

Fun trip - great guide and driver - driver made some really fast turns for us to make the trip an adventure as well. Only drawback was that the tour was shorter than we had booked.

Great fun experience, fast boats bid waves, lots of excitement but hold on tight, big waves = big fun. Guide ‘John’ was very informative, and the driver William knew exactly what he was doing, we were both exhausted and need a coffee. Just do it, you won’t regret. Alex, Oxfordshire

We stopped to take pictures at all the right places, the trip was exciting!👍 The board went very fast but was still smooth 👍👍

This trip was GREAT!! The guide was extremely knowledgeable - had an answer to ALL our questions! They were very accommodating and made sure that we saw, what we wanted and that we were comfortable. I will definitely hire them again, next time I bring guests to Dubai on my business trips.

I absolutely LOVED this speedboat tour. We were lucky enough to sit at the very front. Shout out to John, the guide. He had so many facts about the buildings and Dubai itself. He was also fantastic at taking photos for me/of me. Water is provided. There is space under the seats to secure your belongings. The only negative thing is we wish it lasted longer. 99 minutes just wasn't enough. The place is absolutely STUNNING!

Majin and Rubin were wonderful tour guides. We had an amazing time and can’t wait to do it again. Thank you for everything!

Booking process was easy, view along the tour was interesting, and speed part exhilarating. Well worth it. All round fun tour.

Not my first time, and it never fails to disappoint as a trip. If I'm honest, the extra bits, like information about the various sights does depend on which guides you get, and I didn't feel that it was as good this time as on previous trips. This didn't affect me, but others who hadn't been before didn't get all of the useful information about the Burj Al Arab, or the Atlantis etc. Great fun on the water though!

We absolutely loved this trip. Exhilarating and exciting. Slow trip out to sea and then full speed ahead by which time the breeze is much appreciated! Comfort safety a priority. Loads of opportunities have photos taken by the guide in front of the famous sights. John was affable and entertaining throughout. Thanks for a super trip. Highly recommend.

We had a good time during the tour. Tour guide shot pictures for us in beautiful Dubai bay . We enjoyed the beach boating, thanks

Our whole family absolutely loved the Yellow Boat trip. The guides were so kind and informative with some great photo opportunities. It was a good orientation on our first day in Dubai. We chose the 4pm time slot, which was a cooler time of day and incorporated a lovely sunset on the way back.

Fantastic speed boat tour with interesting elements pointed out and a good fun level of information provided. Was warned the sea was a little rough and asked at what speed we should go. Obviously the response was full throttle and at times we got some serious air with big landings. All great from our perspective and would recommend, but do take into account that some of the impact is perhaps not for those wanting a pleasure cruise.

The best attraction ever! You can see the stunning skyline of the city! I recommended for adult and children! It’s the 4th time for me and 1st for my friends.

Perfect day even though it was hot. Staff supplied continuous water and the breeze was great. Good safety in place. Highly recommend

We had a great tour. Ours was a small group and the crew were very friendly and we had plenty of opportunities for photo stops. It was good to see Dubai from the water, even if it was a bit bumpy on occasions. The crew gave us bottles of water which was welcome in 40°. Well worth the money for the experience.

Amazing experience totally recommend. Our guide stopped at the main attractions and gave us information in a very friendly and interesting way . We were also given water . Was a bit hard to find as it was the opposite end to where we were staying and we walked but that was our fault . There are toilets and air con in the place opposite the boats . I loved it and would say just do it if you can

We had a fantastic tour, the crew was gentle and helpful, the speed is at high pace, so it will make you smile all along the journey 😎

Excellent 99 mins. Very informative Maximo was really good. My 2nd time Thoroughly recommend this trip Great value for money

Great fun and the best way to explore the Dubai skyline. Very well organized and absolute great value for money. Highly recommended

We had prebooked the 60 minute Dubai Marina Cruise for today at 6pm to enjoy the sights of the Marina in daylight and nightlight, after watching the sun set at 6.30pm - which was the focus of our booking. However, 3 and a half hours before the trio, we were Whatsapped with an offer to bring forward our trip to 5pm and receive a complimentary upgrade to the 99 minute Premium Tour - but they needed a prompt decision. So I replied asking if we would still see the sun set - and the response was positive, so we accepted. What a big mistake! Having endured an unexpected, back jarring high speed, wave-crashing trip in open water, we returned to the dock only 85 minutes after we left (not 99 minutes) at 6.30pm. Indeed, we had our back to the sun from 6.15 pm in daylight! So not only did we not see the sun set, but also returned to the Marina in daylight. This waz not what we wanted or were promised! We wish they had been honest: we suggest they wanted to combine the 6pm one hr trip with the 99 minute trip at 5pm to save a boat and crew. Had we known the truth, we would have asked for our 6pm trip to be rescheduled or a refund; instead Yellow Boats deceived us, took our money and didn't deliver what was promised. I'm sure some others on the boat got what they paid for, albeit 14 minutes less - but we didn't!

It was fun! A bit hot though, must be enjoyable if winter. But the whole boat tour was very good. Staff were friendly. My hat flew and the boat guy took the effort to get it back even if I told them no need. Thank you, sorry didn’t get his name! Even the Filipino guy who attended my queries was very accommodating. Kudos to the Yellow Boat team!

Amazing experience - particularly if choosing the sunset time where you get to see the sunset and Dubai glistening in lights shortly after. We went in the summer when it was extremely hot, but the speedboat was perfect. The ride out of the Marina is slow (4 knots) but this speeds up significantly thereafter to 20+. We saw the Atlantis and Burj al Arab. The staff were very engaging, willing to take some memorable photographs. At full speed, the ride can be bumpy so the elderly or those with medical concerns should take guidance however on the whole a highly recommended and enjoyable experience. My little one has very fond memories. Pricing is also reasonable for Dubai standards for the uniqueness and thrill offered.

We've used the Yellow Boat Tour Dubai before and so knew that it would be good. On this occasion we ended up with a private tour as its the height of summer and most people know that Dubai is hottervthan Mars We arrived at 430pm for our 5pm tour, the guide met us confirmed our details and said that boarding would begin at 455pm We did the Marina, Bluewaters, Atlantis, the Palm and Burj Al Arab - stopped for some cracking photos taken by the guide Though out or tour the guide ensured we had plenty of water and gave us lots of interesting facts and information Thank you - sorry I don't have a note of your names 😊

This was an Excellent trip - well organised, fun, informative and good value for money. I would totally recommend this trip.

Amazing experience and friendly tour guide team. Would recommend to anyone . Our tour guide was very experienced and friendly. The company provided us with great experience.

It was so much fun! After we boarded the boat, we slowly cruised along the marina, the tour guide showing us different buildings and information. After we left the marina, we went real fast, and saw the Palm Jumeira Al the way to the Burj Al Arab. Everyone’s hair was really messed up so don’t spend too much time styling it unless you have *really* strong hair gel.

My friend came to visit so I booked a tour for her to see the city. Very nice, professional and fun. Crew was amazing, job well done. Definitely would recommend.

It's an interesting and beautiful City. I like it for my business as well as vacation during my free time. I have also selected this city because it is easily loveable and attractive for business.

Lovely boat, high speed exciting tour with plenty of photo ops. We had an excellent tour guide John & captain who were both very friendly and explained the key points of the trip well

This tour left me pretty underwhelmed. While the process of booking was easy and their equipment was nice, the tour itself was meh. All of the commentary from the guide was like a data sheet of facts. This is the x hotel built in (year), the tallest/longest whatever record-breaking factoid about it, with y number of rooms and x# of swimming pools. The opening party cost $xxxxxxx million USD. This could have been a lot better - perhaps the story/history of the UAE/Dubai. It’s a city with such unique architecture - how did that come about? There was a captain and a guide. The captain didn’t utter a word to the guests. When we left, the guide didn’t even say bye/have a good day - nothing. They handed out water bottles at the beginning, which was nice, but if you’re holding onto your hat so it doesn’t blow off, and hanging onto your phone how do you hold onto the water bottle? There are no cup holders.

A brilliant opportunity not just for a speedboat ride but to see the Marina at a leisurely pace. Guide (John?) was excellent - very informative. Photo opportunities with Atlantis and then Burj hotels in the background. Would definitely recommend (but don't eat beforehand!). We booked at their kiosk and got a 25% discount using our Emirates boarding pass.

Fantastic speedboat trip with a few stops for some commentary. The 45 mins was over an hour and we picked up plenty of pace. You a get on at Pier 71 which is great for a drink after too. Highly recommend! Free water too.

We enjoyed a superb 99-minute trip through the Marina, around the Palm and right up to a frontal sea view of the Burj Al Arab and back. The cruise starts very relaxed, and you get a great view of the Marina and its surroundings. However, once you enter the open sea, the pace picks up 100%, and you fly across the ocean, passing The Atlantis and other sightseeing spots on the way. Our day was a particularly choppy ride, which added to the fun and excitement! There are plenty of amazing photo opportunities on the way.
