Great for getting your bearings so do the tour early in your stay. a much longer wait than similar buses in other cities, and they are also often late. would not use them to get around as the round trip of each route is also extreamly long. But as a tour around the city with the information over the head... More

My family & I bought the 24hrs ticket and decided to go for the red route tour. After much planning, we managed to visit all the stops within the time frame and made our money spend worthwhile. This is how we did it. a) Take the 1st morning bus from red route stop no. 1 (Deira City Centre) to stop... More

My sister + husband came all the way from Brazil to visit us in Dubai (it was their first time in this part of the world). We recommended the Big Bus trip to visit Dubai as my husband and I are working during the week. We dropped them off at Mall of the Emirates, the staff was really friendly and... More

This tour is way over priced (cheaper to use taxis) and doesn’t provide what the over exuberant sales team say it does. When the last ‘connection bus’ was half an hour late missing the connection we were assured that we would be able to complete the tour the next day. We got on the bus but were told to get... More

“48 Hour Ticket - A Big Waste” The Big Bus Tour has two routes available. The Red Route on the Deira creek side and the Blue Route on the Jumeirah side. This is a hop on hop off service with plenty of sights to see. The buses are comfortable and modern with AC. These buses run approx every 20 minutes.... More

Being first time in Dubai we decided to take first the tour. One adult ticket is approx 60$... A bit too pricey for a sightseeing tour... It has red route which goes around the creek and the blue tour which goes the new part, including Palm and Burj al Arab. The day was very windy so it was awkward. I... More

We bought a 2 day Big bus pass and found it to be a very effective and efficient way of visiting both old and new Dubai in 2 days. The pass seemed a little expensive but it was certianly worth it and we would use "Big Bus" again in other cities.

I recommend that you start the tour as early as you can and plan the locations you'd like to stop at before had. Also the amount of time at each location. I did both bus routes in one day. I don't think it is worth doing both in one day as it was a bit rushed. Also did not get... More
