Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

After seeing this company mentioned on a special tv program about Dubai knew I had to get an aerial view while vacationing there. Photography is one of my hobbies so was excited to know this would be the way to do it. The staff was very professional, they sent me a text to remind me of the pickup from my hotel which made it even better as it was a good 30 minute drive to the airport. I did pay extra to get a seat next to the pilot who also was very courteous (and not bad looking). He flew us over all the important sites of Dubai. I even got a great shot of the Burj Al Arab and the Burj Khalifa. This flight lasted about 30-45 minutes and was well worth it. The only negative part it was a little cloudy but was told it was worse the day before. They are good about trying to go at the clearest time of the day so you can get the best overall view. This is an expensive tour, no doubt about it but if you have the money by all means this is a great way to see Dubai. I could do this again and never tire of it.

Dubai is huge! The very best way to get an overall impression is only from above. The fly-around is expensive but being a privat pilot myself I know about the costs. Our pilot was experienced, knew how to fly a water plane. All good. Thanks, Rob!
Just a small tip / hint from my side:
Check the weather!!! Dubai can be very hazy from time to time! Book your flight with Seawings on short notice after checking next day´s weather. There is never a guarantee and Seawings cannot foresee this, too. But to get the most out of this 20 / 45 mins fly-around make sure the air is clear. We just had bad luck flying in poor (but safe!) conditions. All good. I can recommend this trip to everyone.

It is truly an amazing and unique flying experience on Seawings Seaplane Tour from Dubai to Abu Dhabi! I had a wonderful experience from take off from Port Rashid Marina Dubai flying over the skyline, famous landmarks like Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah and World Island and finally overlooking Yas Island landing on Yas Marina.
I appreciate and thank all Seawings staff for their professionalism, from Guest Service team handling the booking, conducting briefing, ground handling team members for their service and not forgetting the captain who gave me unforgettable memorable experience.
I would highly recommend everyone to experience Seawings - aerial view adventure trip which has vast tour choices in UAE.

The whole seaplane experience was very enjoyable. We had hotel pick up and drop off which is a bonus as we were staying on the Palm and Seawings are based down at Dubai Creek. The driver wasn't sure how to get us to the Seawings "office" and it took him a little while to get his bearings so i'm guessing he was new to the job. The "office" was nothing more than a awning attached to the side of a cafe which I fought was a little cheep but the service was excellent. The plane held 8 passingers and I think that they conned one woman by wanting her to pay more for the front seat. This seat should have been offered free as somebody had to sit in it anyway. The flight itself was fantastic and you got to see al the sites that Dubai has to offer from a different perspective. I would not hessitate recommending this tour to anyboby.

Our seaplane tour took off from the Amazing Jebel Ali resort. The tour lasted 30 min and went along the coast line where we had the opportunity to see breathtaking views of Dubai from above. Before take off we were briefed on safety procedures and advised on the landmarks we would be passing. The seating is comfortable and although all seats provide amazing views, upon availability you have the opportunity to have the seat beside the pilot at an extra charge of 150aed
The staff are friendly and very welcoming.
Overall if you are looking for great family friendly experience this would be it.

This was the highlight of my Dubai trip. Splendid is the word. The views from of this amazing city from the sky were breathtaking. You can see the pictures and you will know how magnificent were the views. However, no camera can do justice to what your eyes will see.
We did the morning seaplane tour. We were told to report at 9 am for a 10 am flight. One of the ground staff members, Sunny, was ready to receive us when we arrived. She then took us for a briefing where she explained the route and the safety guidelines. We were 9 of us. The seaplane can seat 9 passengers plus the pilot, we were informed. Once our baggage were scanned, we were asked to hop on to a car which took us closer to the seaplane. And then a quick walk on the floating walkway, we reached the seaplane. A Seawings personnel also clicked pictures of us with the seaplane. These were presented to us at the end of the ride in a wonderfully crafted hardbound book. One could purchase it at an extra cost.
The seaplane tour last for 45 mins where were flying above each of Dubai's tourist attractions (see pictures).
Once back from the seaplane ride, we were taken back to the terminal in the car. At the terminal, one could choose have breakfast. There was a neat cafeteria serving food and beverages.

We booked our 45min flight with the 50% off offer and were not disappointed! The new terminal is fantastic. All staff were professional and helpful. We’d never been on a sea plane and this is an experience we’ll never forget. Everyone has a window seat to take incredible pictures and the pilot really took time to loop round and ensure both sides of the plane could take in the incredible views of all Dubai’s major landmarks. I’ve visited Dubai many times and seeing the city this way took my breath away.

It was our first experience to fly in a seaplane. We booked a snapshot tour with Seawings (discounted rate for Dubai residents scheme) and went along with our toddler (7 months) and 5 year old kid.
After arriving at Seawings Jabel Ali site we were warmly greeted by the staff who did the check-in for us. We were then informed about the safety procedures, flight route and time. We were also informed that it was a great day to be on a sea plane due to clear sky and weather.
Soon it was time for boarding. Our son was really excited to board and fly on a sea plane. There were 3 other passengers along with our family who had booked this experience. It was a tiny plane with capacity of total 8 passengers. 2 seats were empty (probably due to social distancing). We were greeted by the pilot who ensured that we are seated comfortably and soon we were cruising at full speed on the blue waters of Jabel Ali.
Every seat was a window seat so we all had a spectacular view from the window. Taking off from the sea up into the sky was an experience in itself. We flew past Palm Jabel Ali, Blue Water Island, Sheikh Zayed Road, Marina / JBR, JLT and Emirates Hills towards Burj al Arab and then cutting through the route to downtown where we entered the Burj Khalifa zone. There's a distance limit in downtown Dubai for low altitude aircrafts due to high-rise buildings hence we remained within the zone. Flying over this modern city highlighted the beautiful town planning and infrastructure. City looked like a mega property model spread across miles. It was a great sight.
We took the same route on the way back and landed into the sea at Jabel Ali. It was a fantastic experience, one that we will remember for long!

Absolutely breathtaking views over one of the most amazing and inspiring city's around the world.
Dubai has so much to offer and is a constantly growing and changing city that you can really see when flying over all the man made creations.
I can highly recommend the long tour flight, the crew is knowledgeable and great spirited.
The thrill of the water take off and landing is one of a kind experience and flying over all the sites in a rather low altitude makes the views one of a kind.
If you like adventures, are impressed by the city - It's a must do experience!

Is it Safe for a pregnant lady in her 5th months of pregnancy??

We do allow pregnant women on board. Women up to 28 weeks pregnant (as on the date of the Tour) can fly with us without a medical certificate/report. Between 28 and 35 weeks a pregnant woman may take a tour by providing a medical certificate/report. However, we always recommend individuals to consult with your doctor before booking.

Hallo ipodi,
meine Frage betrifft die Gutscheine zu "Seawings".
Waren diese in dem Gutscheinheft "The Entertainer" ? (in der Ausgabe 2013?)
Ich versuche gerade heraus zufinden, ob die Gutscheine auch in der Ausgabe 2015 enthalten sind ?
Hat jemand einen Tip, wo ich die aktuellen Inhalten der Ausgabe 2015 abfragen kann ?
Danke vorab für die Unterstützung.

Dear Sir,
Thank you for your mail. We are currently not listed with the entertainer for 2015.
We do run specials quite often though which may be of interest to you. Please contact us at any time if you would like more information.
