Dhow Cruise Dubai, Dubai

I booked this activity several weeks before our arrival in Dubai either a dinner on a boat ride in the Marina... the title may seem dreamy, but it has not been the case at all. For this activity, we had the option to choose if we wanted the transfer back and forth, we validated this paid option, a total cost of 88 euros for 2 people. On the confirmation received the day after the purchase, it is well notified that the boat leaves at 20:30, so our hotel being at 20 min, we expected to be ready for 7pm!!! No news either by email or by message from the provider! We were at the hotel pool that afternoon fortunately as we were called by the hotel concierge to tell us that our driver had arrived... 4:30 p.m. A JOKE... Here we are in the middle of the race to get dressed and get down 10 minutes later! The driver of a mini bus is waiting for us, he hardly speaks English, makes us get on the bus quite aggressively, the bus is repulsive dirt, there's trash on the ground, the air conditioning blocks hold with scotch, in short its driving is most Dangerous. 25 min later we stop to pick up 2 extra travelers, who are like us quite baffled from the state of the mini bus! 15 min later, the driver stops in an area under construction on the lower side, takes us off the bus and drives us on foot in the sand and pebbles in Normandy or pointing at or we have to go... He's on his way back! A little perplexed we walk a good kilometer to find the boat, and especially to clean the feet to be sunk in sandals on this ground ... disasters went on and it wasn't over! Mounted on the boat, and installed at a table, we find that the dishes is dirty (we change it) the tablecloth is stained like all seat cache! In short it's hide-and-seek misery... at that point we hesitated to leave! The boat starts and the walk in the marina, is just a round trip with a buffet for dinner! An Indian buffet... there's a queue of more than 30 minutes to serve! The food is warmed up and very bad. It was written that there was a show, we didn't see anything!!!! VITE EVERYTHING EVERYTHING EVERYTHING Of course, we took a taxi at our expense for the return, no desire to get back in this wreck of mini bus, which by the way coming only at 9pm and the activity is over a little before 8pm! I am quite outraged to see that such an offer with this type of provider can still be on the Viator catalog! I am a regular in this type of business purchase, but for the end of the stay, I opted for competition.
