Traditional Abra ride on the Dubai water canal
Step aboard the abra, a traditional wooden (often used as a water taxi) combines elements of a raft and a deck boat. This intimate boat, reflecting the simplicity of old times, holds only about 20 people.
This 1-hour cruise glides along the Dubai Canal, a waterway that cuts through the heart of Dubai. It's like a dividing line, separating the old and new parts of the city. On one side, you've got Deira and Bur Dubai, bustling commercial areas that have been around for ages. On the other, you'll see the super modern skyscrapers that Dubai is famous for.
To get a taste of local flavor, opt for the Emirati high tea package. It features delicious onboard snacks like chebab, khan faroush, vegetable samboosa, and duqan legemat.
