Boat was fantastic, but please change instructions at the app, because there are really bad. Call-wall counter is it just Desk to At The top. Sign" Lake Road isn't visible, and isn't it in front of the Gourmet Restaurant. We lost really a lot of time to looking for that place.

So the show happened every 30 mins in evening. Better to attend between 7:20 and 9:15. Lightings are better, music is nice and almost all food restaurants are ready to be occupied so when you click photograph, you will see lot of flashes. Lake is good and fun ride.

I had a great show experience! But the redemption location is hard to find. It is said to be in front of Wafi Gourmet Restaurant, but it’s not in that area. In fact, I was able to find the LAKE Ride sign about 300 meters along the fountain in the direction of Burj Khalifa. I was disappointed in this regard, so I gave it 3 stars.

Purchasing my ticket was stress free & emailed to me immediately. Only thing is collecting your ticket in the Dubai Mall is in a different place than your directions. So it was a bit tricky to find. The Abra Lake ride was great & I would recommend that if you want to see the fountain show up close.

The office displayed in your instructions doesn't exist anymore and is located only in LG (Low Level) ground of Dubai Mall. Very, very confusing to allocate this counter and I was searching for it almost an hour. You can't simply skip the lines, first you have to speak to a person who puts you into the line. I suggested you to update your information. The best way to access the Mall from metro station is to go with the crowd and follow sign to the Mall but the first tunnel on the right hand side. Walk through the tunnel exit the building downstairs and turn left and walk the pedestrian sidewalk towards Burj Khalifa and walk by right side down towards lake and fountain till you the promenade and entry to the Dubai Mall entrance where the exchange counter is. This is the easiest way.

Climb aboard the traditional wooden 'Abra' boat on Burj Lake witness the most amazing lights & water show in Downtown Dubai. This 30-minute cruise on the traditional abra taxi gives you front row seats to the best fountain show in the world. Be awed by this jaw-dropping spectacle featuring 6,000 lights, 25 colored projectors, and 22,000 gallons of water sent into a synchronized dance! Spread over 900 ft in length – equal to more than two football pitches – The Dubai Fountain is placed on the 30-acre Burj Lake.
