We had a great afternoon cruise with Xclusive Yachts. It is a first class operation. Very professional. The area is itself is gorgeous. The 3 hour tour went very quickly. The food was fresh and excellent. The meat was bbq’d right there on the boat. Highly recommend.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Yacht Experience in Dubai Marina We booked the exclusive 2-hour yacht tour from Dubai Marina with BBQ as a surprise for my parents, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we stepped on board, everything was perfect. The weather was stunning, and the views across the bay were absolutely breathtaking—Dubai looks magical from the water. The service was exceptional, especially from Issa, who truly went above and beyond. He was incredibly attentive and genuinely cared about making our experience memorable. From helping us take beautiful photos to constantly checking in on us and keeping our drinks topped up, he didn’t miss a thing. The BBQ food was fresh, light, and delicious—lemon chicken skewers, fresh salad, mini burgers, and a lovely selection of fruits. It was refreshing and just perfect for a relaxing day on the water. Most importantly, my parents were completely overwhelmed (in the best way!) by the experience, the views, and the outstanding hospitality. Seeing their joy made this tour even more special for us. A huge thank you to the entire team for such a flawless and memorable experience. We highly recommend this yacht tour to anyone visiting Dubai—whether with family, friends, or for a special occasion.

My experience with Xclusive Yacht has been excellent. Recommend by a friend, they did not disappoint. The yacht is beautiful, and nicely decorated as per the options they provided. The crew, Captain Velmurugan, Jijin, Raphael and Harley were thoughtful and professional the entire time. Friendly and experienced they enhanced the 3 hours we were on board. While waiting to board I mentioned all I wanted was some water. As soon as we boarded Raphael thoughtfully brought me a cold bottle of water. If I had to do this again I would in a heartbeat and with the same crew! Thank you for the time of our lives.

Dubai Marina is absolutely stunning and one of the most vibrant places in Dubai. The waterfront views are breathtaking, especially in the evening when the skyline lights up. The Marina Walk is perfect for strolling, dining, or just relaxing by the water. There’s a great mix of restaurants, cafés, shopping, and entertainment, plus easy access to beaches and boat cruises. The atmosphere feels modern, lively, and very international. Whether you’re visiting as a tourist or staying longer, Dubai Marina offers luxury, convenience, and unforgettable views all in one place.

The 2-hour BBQ dinner shared ride with Xclusive Yachts is one of the more refined ways to experience the Dubai Marina skyline without chartering a private vessel. Boarding takes place at their dedicated pier near Al Majara Tower, where the "red carpet" welcome—while a bit gimmicky—sets a nice, upscale tone compared to the chaotic dhow cruise operators nearby. The yacht itself is modern and well-maintained. Unlike the crowded traditional dhows, these yachts feel spacious even on a shared trip. You have the option of an air-conditioned lower deck, but the real experience is up on the flybridge where you get unobstructed views of JBR, the Ain Dubai wheel, and the Palm Lagoon. The food is surprisingly decent for a boat tour. The live BBQ station churns out fresh chicken skewers and koftas which are juicy and hot, rather than the lukewarm buffet fare often found on similar excursions. The sides are standard—hummus, salads, and bread—but fresh. Soft drinks are unlimited, though if you want alcohol, you’ll need to purchase it separately onboard. Service is where they stand out; the crew is attentive, constantly offering to take photos for guests and clearing plates quickly. The 2-hour duration is perfect—long enough to relax and eat, but not so long that it drags. My only tip: arrive at least 30 minutes early as finding the specific check-in booth among the marina walkways can be tricky. It is a solid value for a premium sightseeing experience.

We took this cruise as we were having a family over. Price is fair for a one hour and half cruise, great food and atmosphere. I highly recommend taking a good fresh break with nice views from the Dubai marina. As mentioned food was great and also staff was also accommodating. A well organized cruise with live pasta and noodle station that creates a more wow event. Highly recommended

It was exactly as it appeared—relaxing, elegant, and genuinely luxurious. It offered the perfect break when I truly needed one. The food was delicious, and the crew were incredibly helpful and friendly. The duration of the visit was impressive. It lasted two hours, and I was honestly surprised that after exploring all these places, I still had a full hour left just to relax and enjoy the experience. The fee was very reasonable compared to what was offered and to the rates in the surrounding area. It felt almost like a private tour, as it was not crowded at all—we were only five people, luckily 🤭💕. This experience is perfect for everyone: families, groups of friends, couples, and even solo visitors, like myself. Surprisingly, I didn’t feel lonely at all; it was deeply relaxing, and the crew played a big role in making that happen.
