Terrible customer service

Carol_M, Feb 2024

Company agree location. Even on the booking directions we were directed to the meeting point. The yacht was not there. Another taxi to the correct meeting point. Captain would not take responsibly for us losing an hour told me to take it up with the booking company, I have and they have refused a refund for the lost hour, the extra taxi. Refreshments were included. 1 mini bottle of water and 1 small cola offered on the 3 hours we did get of our 4 hour booking. Crew pleasant however they gave us no instructions. No safety instructions. Nothing. No loo roll in the toilet. Basically I will never use this company again. To not refund our lost time due to their mistake is robbery in my eyes.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Dear Carol McFarland Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts regarding your recent experience. We apologize sincerely for any inconvenience the you may have faced during your trip. Unfortunately, we are unable to issue a refund for the lost hour. Below, please find the reasons for this decision ( I have explained the same via email, so here, the same response): Upon reviewing your complaint, it seems there may have been a misunderstanding regarding the location of your booking. We regret to inform you that you arrived at a different location from the one we communicated via WhatsApp ( we have the proof via WhatsApp), leading to a shorter duration of your trip. We understand this may have been frustrating for you, and while we provided the correct meeting point location map, landmarks, and captain's contact details to ensure your arrival at the correct spot, we apologize for any confusion you may have experienced. As per our booking terms and conditions, it is the customer's responsibility to ensure a timely arrival at the correct location. Unfortunately, in this instance, it appears there was a miscommunication or oversight on your part. Regarding the amenities provided during the trip, we apologize for any shortcomings you encountered. We aim to offer a comfortable and enjoyable experience for all our customers, and while water and soft drinks are available, we prefer customers to request them from the crew as needed, rather than being continually offered. There are plenty of tissues available to use, but are you focusing on a toilet roll? The bathroom cubicle is equipped with a shower and toilet, and tissue rolls get wet all the time - I hope this explains?. We regret that we did not meet your expectations on this occasion, but we are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your cruise experience. Additionally, please note that this cruising experience is not a guided tour, and the points and landmarks covered are communicated at the time of booking. While the crew will assist as much as possible, their primary role is to ensure your cruising experience is comfortable and safe. Regarding the refund request for the lost hour, we must adhere to our policy, which stipulates that refunds are not provided for instances where customers arrive at the wrong location. It is crucial to reach out to the tour operator before the scheduled travel date to verify the precise location of the map. Instances of delayed arrival at the designated boat location, resulting in failure to meet the specified time, will not be accommodated and will be considered a no-show. (No extensions or rescheduling will be facilitated in such cases.) We value your feedback and will utilize it to enhance our services in the future. Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience you experienced, and we kindly request your understanding in this matter. If you have any further concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thanks & Regards,

Fun in the sun

Amber_B, Feb 2024

This experience was amazing. The Captain stayed in communication with me. I asked to have the yacht decorated for my daughter’s birthday & the crew did a great job. The Captain & crew were very nice & friendly. Would recommend

Kazeem_O, Jan 2024

Our best activity in Dubai. I will recommend this private charter yatch to any tourist. The Captain was very friendly. His crew members were respectful and understanding. It was an amazing experience!

A must do experience

stuart_s, Dec 2023

This was fantastic… there was a little issue in that we couldn’t find where to meet the captain, but once that was resolved, it was a must do life experience.. if you are a couple, hire the yacht exclusively… quite romantic … the crew brought soft drinks and snacks , took photos for and of us , were courteous and knowledgeable….. we didn’t want to get off

Must do when in Dubai!

Temi_A, Nov 2023

Amazing experience!!! So much fun and breathtaking views! We really enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be back!!

Great Tour

Rdiger_S, Nov 2023

Fantastic experience

Tiwa_E, Oct 2023

Absolutely loved this experience ! They were lovely & very accommodating. Would recommend to everyone go use this company

Not worth it.

Mandeep_D, Jun 2023

The people taking us on the your were late. We found them to be rude and didn't explain anything to us before or during the ride. We were not provided with life jackets. The views were great, other than that didn't enjoy the experience...fir what we paid we were very dissapointed.

The operator is not truthful! Terrible experience

Andrea_S, May 2023

The worst boat ride ever. The staff was not friendly or helpful. The photos thats on the site prior to booking was false! The actual boat was dirty and old. The seating had cracks in the leather. Towels were dirty. I would not recommend. The offered me a menu that was not available at the time we booked then gave me options to choose from. Then later that day , he told me the chef was not available at all!!.

Response from Host, May 2023

Hi Andrea Staples, My apologies that your expectations was not met. This was the first time that I received this feed back and we will definitely investigate. Allow me to understand few things. Kindly help us understand better how the crew became NOT friendly or NOT helpful. As for the food, as you have said, you were offered options to choose from. There are items that requires minimum delivery that's why you are offered ONLY the available for delivery. I do not see why this became an issue. You also have the option to carry your own food if the offered menu is not for your liking. Food needs to order in advance . We normally take 24 hours prior to the trip. You also need to consider that during weekend offices are closed and no one will process your payment. If you order on the spot how will you gonna pay - note that there are other guest that we cater for food so for us to serve the guest needs we require advance orders. Thank you so much for your feedback.

Great experience

Nashrin_M, May 2023

Beautiful experience with excellent, pleasant crew Hari and Tony. Even though we were a few minutes late, they waited for us. Yacht was lovely, clean and exactly as in the pictures. Would recommend. If we didn't have a 1yr old, would have gone out further.

5 Star Service

Jessica_S, Feb 2023

What a memorable experience! Besides being the setting my now fiancé proposed in (so naturally it was the best day of my life), this excursion was nothing short of 5 stars!! From the moment we were greeted at the dock, our crew tended to our every need. They went out of the their way to personalize it to our occasion without even asking. Kudos to Arlene, Captain Davish, and Basit for being the best in the industry!

Beyond our expectations!!!

KRISHNA_V, Dec 2022

We had excellent private yacht experience of sunset & marina. This was totally way beyond our expectations.

Andrew_L, Nov 2022

Brilliant trip and service was great with a very experienced Captain and crew who were very tentative to us

Good but don’t get hopes up to see landmarks

CharlotteJ, Jun 2022

Says it takes you to show Atlantis,and two other landmarks it does none. By the time you go out he makes a turn and you come back . Thought it did what it says .if I knelt I would’ve just taken it for 1hr. This has been falsely sold and the pics are not of that actually boat

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Hi Charlotte Jo, Thank you for your feedback. The tour specifically mentioned the routes:*ROUTES* 1 hour: Dubai Marina, Bluewaters Island 2 hours: Dubai Marina, Bluewaters Island, and Atlantis the Palm 3 hours: Dubai Marina, Bluewaters Island, Atlantis the Palm, and Burj Al Arab 4 hours: Dubai Marina, Bluewaters Island, Atlantis the Palm, Blue Lagoon, and Burj Al Arab You booked for 2 hours so it means your tour will not go to Burj Al Arab area. We are using different boats. You have given a bigger boat for your trip which can accomodate max 12 person spacious enough for the 3 of you. Regards

Family charter! Amazing afternoon!

tammy_t, Apr 2022

Amazing time on the boat! We saw all the sights and Vicci was super attentive and took lots of photographs of us! Captain Michael was brilliant too! Soft drinks included be you can play your own music too! Epic experience! Recommend starting at 4pm for a 3 hour trip so you get to see sunset too!
