I had a terrible experience with this tour company and would not recommend them to anyone. The driver dropped us off far from the actual tour location, and the company never provided the tickets or clear instructions on where we were supposed to go. We ended up having to take a taxi back home because the situation was so poorly handled. To make things worse, the driver kept calling at 8 a.m. to pick us up for a tour that was scheduled for 5:45 p.m. The entire experience was disorganized, stressful, and completely unprofessional. Avoid this company.

Amazing. So much fun. Water and light show to music was beautiful. Staff was great as well. Very accommodating

Beautiful way to experience the Burj Khalifa and dancing fountain in all its splendor! Recommended especially if it’s your first time round

This is a very relaxed small boat trip around the lake . Very organised with a fast moving queue to get in a boat holding about 8 people . It’s a great experience and I would definitely recommend it .

Directions to lake ride not very clear and no signs until you actually get to ride. Outside Dubai mall on LG by food court follow promenade walk round to right past the Burj Khalifa. Ride well worth money with spectacular view

Good views of the show. Fun experience. Can get crowded around peak time, show up earlier than stated.
Bajrang_P, Nov 2025
Although our fountain boat ride was very good even exceptional, the personal transport was very poor the driver was not experienced enough and did not know his way around the Dubai Mall he and we had to ask for directions on multiple occasions

the place where I had to pick up my ticket was wrong, I was sent to the aquarium, and no one knew what to do with me. The tickets cost 70 dirhams on the spot, but I paid 30 dollars. You can also go to the pier for 20 dirhams and watch the entire show. There's no point in doing that.

The show itself and well worth seeing - certainly the best water display in the world. However the instructions for accessing this trip were both conflicting and misleading. Not meant for anyone with limited walking capability as distance from nearest vehicle drop off point to embarkation point being very far.
Pamela_R, Oct 2025
You can see the fountains without paying for a tour but I would highly recommend the boat trip, front row seats, & only 8 people to a boat, feels like your own personal showing.
Viktorija_P, Oct 2025
You buy tickets with a specified time, but there isn’t enough space for you, and you have to wait another half an hour for the next boat.
Albert_S, Apr 2025
Upon arrival at the location, we found no boats operating due to maintenance work. The docking stations were completely unstaffed, and there was no indication that the service would run at any point during the evening. We waited at the designated area, but it quickly became clear that the activity had been canceled without any prior notice or on-site assistance.
No Refund so far. No reply to our email or WhatsApp.
Beth_C, Apr 2025
The boat ride itself was wonderful, but the tour company was not. They were not responsive to my emails / WhatsApp messages and they arrived 30 minutes late to pick me up. I don’t think you really need to book a tour to do this, you can just get tickets ahead of time at the desk.
Gillian_E, Feb 2025
The actual boat ride was really lovely. Obtaining the tickets was a nightmare. Got past from pillar to post and no clear communication from booking agent or the promised email/WhatsApp containing the e tickets.

Short ride round the lake to see the fountain show. Absolutely lovely, well worth it. We did it just as it was getting dark so was very pretty.
maris_L, Feb 2025
Amazing and a great view. Process to find the place and redeem ticket was easy and simple. Overall positive
Anat_G, Feb 2025
Great way to watch the wonderful water fountain show.
It saves the hassle of the crowds.
I would recommend going for the later rides as the show is more beautiful at night
Jean_G, Jan 2025
Ride to take should be 8pm so the LED lightning will be working. Water fountains dancing with music was a show to remember
Lauren_F, Jan 2025
This boat trip is definitely worth every penny, as you get a lovely boat ride and uninterrupted view of the fountain and light show!
Kenodh_P, Jan 2025
Amazing!! This is definitely a must do when visiting the Dubai Mall fountains. We got late for our time slot because of traffic but the helpful staff let us on the next boat which was a great relief to us. Visiting the lake by boat is definitely a must do!!
Sarah_M, Nov 2024
Well worth buying the tickets through Viator to ensure that you get a good view of the show. These can also be purchased at the desk but much easier to have things planned in advance. Please note that you do have to exchange your printed ticket for a ticket that you pick up inside the Dubai mall. It is an easy process but defo plan ahead.
Brendan_M, Nov 2024
Took a little while to locate the gate for entry but everything else was smooth including an enjoyable ride on the lake whilst the fountains erupted. A wonderful site and good perspective for photographs.
xana_m, Nov 2024
Excellent!! On an evening it was just beautiful. Views from the boats were so good and great for taking pictures. Stops being with all crowds and can really relax and enjoy the show. Would recommend
Craig_H, Oct 2024
Great show and tour in lake.
Very friendly guide. Ideal spot to watch the fountains and all worked fine.
Ofosu_M, Sep 2024
The boat ride on the lake, the beautiful lightening systems, the dancing fountain with amazing music and the panoramic views of Burj Khalifa and the towers around.. I would do this over again in my next visit
Lee_V, Sep 2024
firstly you have to get a email then a text then a QR code and thats stressful when you mobile data is off as you have to download the ticket. the guy at the gate was not helpful and quiet rude.
Karena_D, Sep 2024
This was absolutely wonderful! Just a great experience! I highly recommend this. It is really beautiful!
april_s, Jul 2024
The view and the added tour before the fountains. Amazing, the fountain show was incredible, staff lovely & got on the boat quickly no waiting around.
Zoe_W, Jun 2024
Having seen the fountains from every angle possible, the walk bridge and boat ride definitely do come up trumps for seeing the fountains close up with no audiences spoiling the view!!! I could watch these fountains over and over again!!!

The music with the water at the same time.
It was an amazing evening with friends and everything was súper well organized.
