Gute Organisation an den meisten Haltestellen und sehr freundliche Angestellte! Die Fahrten verliefen pünktlich, es sind alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten in den beiden Touren enthalten und dazu gab es viele Informationen in sehr guter Qualität via Audioguide. Lediglich etwas schwierig war es an weniger populären Haltestellen zuzusteigen, da diese nicht gekennzeichnet sind. Ansonsten nur zu empfehlen!

Very good way of seeing Dubai. Buses generally on time however sometimes they do skip stops! On our first trip we wanted to get off at the Marina but the driver didn't go there, the next day he did so was obviously part of the route. Could do with calling out the stop numbers too, only did this once in 5 days of travelling. Desert trip is good with lots of free activities (if you manage to avoid photograph sales). We had the 5 day ticket which was a bit overkill but we did get entry to Madame Tussauds and the Atlantis Aquarium, both were ok but nothing to write home about, probably wouldn't have done them if not included. Dhow cruise was quite nice too. Overall very good, wouldn't have seen a fraction of Dubai without it. We also did the Dubai Sightseeing hop on hop off bus tour for 1 day and will review separately.

This was a very good hop on hop off bus experience. The audio guide commentary was informative. Buses had an enclosed air conditioned section upstairs too which was helpful in the 40 deg heat. A timetable was also given out with all the times of the stops/pickups throughout the day which is very helpful. Drivers were really friendly and helpful My only criticism, was the lack of information regarding what could be seen/done at each stop. Also, not all stops were well marked with Big Bus.,
