Gozzo boat rides running from Al Seef, Jumeirah 1 Harbour and Marasi Drive in Business Bay

There are now Gozzo boat rides running from Al Seef, Jumeirah 1 Harbour and Marasi Drive in Business Bay.

The authentic Gozzo boats, which started their days on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, have been docked in Dubai by ChaCha boats. The retro-style boats carry up to eight people and take various routes around the waters of the city.

Ideal for booking with a group of friends or family, you can select a package that suits you:

ChaCha boat ride: Al Seef

The Al Seef Creek Tour can be booked for 30 minutes at Dhs230, one hour for Dhs460, 90 minutes for Dhs690 or a 180-minute trip (which includes a two-hour stop at Al Seef) for Dhs1,080. Here you’ll see the sights of old Dubai, along with the glitz of new Dubai from the Creek waters.

ChaCha boat ride: Jumeirah Splash

Gozzo boat ride out on the sea by boarding the boat in Jumeirah 1. It’s Dhs350 for a 30-minute ride, Dhs600 for an hour trip, Dhs1,050 for 120 minutes and Dhs1,560 for 180 minutes. During the sea iteration, you and your group will be able to cool off with a dip in the Arabian Gulf.

ChaCha boat ride: Marasi Canal at sunset

For those looking for a romantic experience, the sunset ride over the Marasi Canal in Business Bay is a good option. Designed so that you can enjoy the city’s eclectic architecture, the 30-minute tour is Dhs350, the one-hour tour is Dhs600, the 120-minute tour is Dhs1,050 and the 180-minute ride is Dhs1,560.

Each of the boats will be sailed around by a ‘charismatic crew’ who aim to bring a taste of Italian island sailing to Dubai.
