more authentic, this is a fun activity to do in Dubai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On this outing, you\u2019ll hop aboard an abra, which is a traditional wooden water taxi, to drift along the waters of the Dubai Water Canal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll watch the sunset as you enjoy commentary on your surroundings and learn more about the city, all whilst tucking into an Emirati high tea and sampling treats like legaimat, cehbab, Basboosat al Fostaq and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cost:<\/strong> $<br><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 1 hour<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal
