What people are saying about Dubai Water Canal

Overall rating

4.6
(2,744 reviews)

Finding the place was a little tricky but there was a mini van waiting for use outside to take us inside the police academy where the heliport is located. The check in process was fairly straightforward and the whole process including wait time took about 40 minutes. The helicopter ride itself was amazing and we had fairly good visibility. The pilot told us where to look and gave us some details on each place. I’d definitely recommend this tour to get an aerial view of Dubai.

We had a great evening with Mark, he showed us all the interesting sights on route, amazing skylines and interesting facts about life in Dubai. The cycling was smooth and easy and I can’t believe we covered 28 km !

I miss my original flight but the lady at the desk was very helpful arranging me a new flight afterwards, 5 stars for her, thank you for the experience

A wonderful cruise with beautiful views and a great atmosphere on board

Excellent trip. Great value and staff very pleasant. Highly recommend
