Captain Levin was amazing! We had the best time! He made sure to take great videos and pictures in front of all the landmarks. He also drove us back to our car so we shouldn't have to walk far. Highly recommended!

Captain Levin was no joke! He was a amazing teacher, guide and photographer. He taught us how to drive the speedboat and took us around all the nicest sites in the harbor. He even taught us how to manage waves that may make you flip. 10/10 experience and would highly recommend

Ahmad was an exceptional captain, guiding us with skill and care throughout the journey. This was hands down one of the best experiences of our lives, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Dubai. If you're in town, this is a must-do activity, and make sure to do it with Costa Self-Drive Boats for a memorable adventure!"
