1 / 4
Corniche & Maya Island boat tour - by Management

Conclusion
The tours operated by Yellow Boats are a fun way to see Abu Dhabi's skyline, but we would not recommend it to first time tourists, especially at the headline price, as they are far more interesting things to see than a few skyscrapers, in our opinion. Rather, we think this is a clever way for residents or repeat visitors to get a new take on some of Abu Dhabi's famous landmarks and just have a fun boat ride.
Key positive
Great views and fun ride
Key negative
Expensive for such a short trip
Not an eco-friendly activity
