The experience

You meet your guide at the marina and set off on a jet ski, cutting through the water with Dubai's skyline as your backdrop. The Burj Khalifa towers 2,722 feet above the shore, and the sail-shaped Burj Al Arab hotel comes into view as you ride. A local guide leads the way to keep the experience safe, and you wear a lifejacket throughout. The half-hour option circles the Burj Al Arab and heads back. If you book the longer tour, you'll extend past Palm Island and see the Atlantis theme park before returning to the marina.

The jet ski itself is the whole point here. You're not watching from a boat or taking photos from a distance. You're the one throttling through the water, feeling the spray and the acceleration, with the city's most recognizable landmarks framing every turn. Bottled water and a safety locker for your belongings are provided, so you can focus on the ride without worrying about your gear.
