Dubai, United arab emirates Cruises
In a city where the pursuit of superlatives is a way of life, your cruise to Dubai delivers many thrilling moments, from panoramic views from the planet’s tallest building, Burj Khalifa, to gazing out from the largest picture frame, the Dubai Frame, and shopping in one of the largest malls, Dubai Mall.
Other adventures in this laboratory of bold visions include Palm Jumeirah, an archipelago of manmade islands, and Ski Dubai, a ski mountain inside a shopping mall.
Float along the flower-fringed canals of the Arabian-style Madinat Jumeirah resort village with superb views of the palatial Burj al Arab, one of the globe’s most exclusive hotels. If you want to bring home a memento of your Dubai cruise, browse Madinat Jumeirah’s modern souk or head to Deira’s historic souk quarter, anchored by the dazzling Dubai Gold Souk.

Our cruises to Dubai are like stepping into a modern fairytale. Gaze down from the world’s tallest building, indulge in retail therapy in one of the world’s largest shopping malls and explore one of the world’s largest manmade islands.
But when choosing a Dubai cruise, you’ll soon realise that there’s more to this glamourous emirate than headline-grabbing superlatives. Stroll along the waterfront at Dubai Marina or soar amidst its skyscrapers on a one-kilometre-long zipline.

And don’t forget to visit Dubai Miracle Garden to be astounded by the vision and effort that went into creating this floral universe.
Our cruises to Dubai also offer you the chance to experience the mystique of the desert and explore the best of the neighbouring emirates, such as Sharjah’s fascinating museums or the exhilarating drive up Jebel Jais mountain in Ras al Khaimah.
