Overview
Big Bus is one of Dubai’s top tourist travel options. This Hop On Hop Off tour is the best way to see the city’s sights. Choose between 1- and 2- day packages across two different routes, the Red Route, or City Tour, and the Blue Route, or Beach Tour.
Once you’re done sightseeing in a particular area, you can hop back on any of the Big Bus vehicles to continue your journey.
The Bug Bus tour provides visitors with rides that are comfortable and hassle-free, with audio guides in 12 different languages, and free access to certain museums in the city. Also enjoy a complimentary dhow cruise with Premium Tickets.
For a taste of old Dubai, hop off at the Al Seef Heritage Area, also on the Red Route, where you’ll be able to experience Dubai both old and new in this fascinating development, which, though recently built, is half in the style of the Dubai of yesteryear and half Dubai at its most modern. It’s a vibrant area that’s full of small shops and great places to eat. It’s also the starting point for the Al Seef Dhow Cruise that’s included in your ticket. The cruise takes you along Dubai Creek, where you’ll be able to see the city from a whole new angle and enjoy the relaxing sensation of being on the water.
The Blue Route heads in the other direction towards the delights of the Palm Jumeirah and the Mall of the Emirates, both examples of Dubai’s incredible modernity at its finest. The Mall of the Emirates is home to over six hundred shops, a fantastic family entertainment centre called Magic Planet and, amazingly, an indoor ski slope! The Palm Jumeirah is one of the most famous and emblematic parts of Dubai. This archipelago of manmade islands takes its name from the fact that its laid out in the shape of a date palm, though you need to be high above it to appreciate how amazing it looks!
One of the Palm’s attractions is the Lost Chambers Aquarium, which is an imagined version of the lost kingdom of Atlantis and home to some of the world’s most interesting, beautiful and dangerous marine animals, from sharks to tiny miniature seahorses. We think it’s an unmissable visit so we’ve included entrance with your Premium Pass.
Another highlight of your Premium Pass is the Sunset and Night Tour, which is the perfect way to see how magical Dubai looks at night. It’s an experience you won’t forget. We’re sure that our Dubai Premium Pass is the perfect way to enjoy all that this incredible, unique city has to offer. Choose a 1-, 2- or 3-day ticket and book your Premium Pass today!
