Real experiences from real travelers
We booked the private yacht for a family birthday and it was spectacular. The captain was professional and the views of Atlantis were unmatched. Worth every penny.
Clean boat, polite crew, and a very smooth ride around the Palm. The sunset timing was perfect for photos.
Great experience seeing the architecture. Even in winter it can get warm, so bring a hat. The swimming stop was refreshing.
My husband proposed during the sunset cruise! The crew helped organize everything. Unforgettable memory.
We did the jet ski tour and it was a blast. Great way to see the Palm if you want some adrenaline. Guides were safe and fun.
We took a shared tour which was affordable and comfortable. Good commentary about the island's history.
Top notch equipment. As a sailor myself, I was impressed by the condition of the yacht and the captain's skill.
The perspective from the water is completely different. Seeing the Royal Atlantis and Burj Al Arab from the sea is a must.
