3/5

The buses were punctual and the audio guide was good. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We didn't think about the fact that when you want to start halfway on the second day, you have to sit through the whole first part again to get there. An improvement could be that the buses drive in both directions instead of all driving in the same circle. We bought a two-day ticket because we wanted to go on a cruise boat. We were unable to book the time on the app and it was full so we could not join. It was disappointing and it should have been made clear early on that places are limited.

We were moved to a 5pm Dhow Creek Cruise (which was great) the lady at the Cruise that works for Big Bus said that as soon as we get back we will have to catch the last bus. We asked her to ensure what she speaks to driver that he doesn't leave without us. As our boat was arriving at dock we saw the bus.....we disembark immediately and almost ran to stop (lady was nowhere to be seen) and the bus had gone. We had to catch a taxi and pay extra cost to get back to Souk Madinat where our car was parked. We incurred cost and lost out on the balance of the bus ride and sight seeing on route. How can it be sold as 24hr ticket but bus doesn't operate 24hrs

We wanted to start our trip from the Frame but there was no sign anywhere to know where the bus would stop, so we had to take a taxi to Burjuman. Not acceptable not to have a sign. The rest was nice.

As my flight was arriving very early in Dubai, I decided to do a Hop on Hop off. For the first day it was good to get an overview of the city. The Big bus tour goes around the most visited places and is therefore a good option for getting around Dubai. However, you have to expect long times in traffic.

Staff were amazing as always , there were a lot of other inclusions such as river cruise and aquarium. but due to traffic I wasn't able to cover much of it, as It took ages to get from one stop to another, thus we could not explore the city as much as we would have loved to. It is not company's fault, but it is very difficult to we even half of the stop: overall, I guess it is still worth the money due to other perks they offer.

We understood the Blue route to be 2.30 minutes. Our trip took over 3 1/2 hours which meant we failed to connect on another tour.

1) Several delays on bus stops to ne picked up; 2) No WiFi in the bus, we international visitors relay (most of the time) on public wifi (and on services like yours, a mall, a hotel) nowadays this is an expected feature. 3) most of the seatbelts did not work (belt stucked) 4) several earplug jacks are not working or defective (bad comtact) -- regular maintenance would be good. This is bad specially when the bus us fully liaded and there us no room to go to another seat with properly working audio. 5) On the landmarks of the city, we would expect the driver would slow down to allow for opportunities for customer to take a good picture (if not going out the bus at that particular stop/landmark) -- specially when your tour guide (recording) mentions the landmark. Hooe this helps 👍

Safety belts not working, audio not working, stops were not marked as a stop for the hop on hop off bus, thus impossible to know if we were waiting at the right place. I am a regular user of hop on hop off. The one in Dubai did not at all meey expectations.

We had the 48-hour ticket and used the first day for the red route and the second for the blue route. We were a bit stuck in traffic on the blue route, but we had enough time to look around. Everything was great 🙂

Both the Miracle Gardens & the Frame were great breathtaking experiences. Booking was easy and saved 13%, so thank you. One bad experience was the taxi ride from outside the gardens to the frame, where we were scammed to the tune of 483 Dirham (should have been approx 100) have since read that this seemed to be a common theme.... spoils a good day out, something needs to be done about it. Many thanks Barry.

Excellent place with lovely photo opportunities. We went around 4pm and were at the top within 15-20 minutes. Parking was a breeze. The views are very good and the place was not as crowded as Burj Khalifah and it only cost £10 per person compared to £37 for Burj Khalifah. I would personally recommend this instead.

The Dubai Frame's view of old Dubai and new Dubai was breathtaking. The staff there are very accommodating, especially Saleem — who took such stunning photos and videos of me. He even thought me how to pose for pics and move for videos and I loved the outcome. 🤭 We also had a short but informative conversation regarding the Dubai Frame. I also enjoyed a lot with Desert Safari. Our Tour guide — Najam picked us on time. He was very patient with us and was very approachable. He always made sure we are comfortable and are having a good time. A five star experience!

We had a lovely experience booking through Headout for both the Dubai Frame and the Miracle Garden! The ticketing process was smooth, convenient, and immediate — we received our e-tickets right after booking with clear instructions. Both attractions were absolutely stunning: the Dubai Frame offered breathtaking panoramic views of old and new Dubai, while the Miracle Garden was a vibrant, colorful dream filled with incredible floral displays. Everything went perfectly, and Headout made the entire process stress-free. Highly recommend using them for an easy and reliable experience!

Great to see how The Palm was created. Views from the top were stunning. Sunset is a great time to go, even when a bit cloudy! The colour of the sky was awesome. Not too busy up there so plenty of opportunities to take photos.

It was easy to book tickets. There is about half an hour if you are a little late, which is exactly what happened to us while we were looking for a place to park our car in the shopping center. Overall a nice walk with a nice view and the most important thing is that the weather is beautiful. We were lucky with the weather, it was sunny and the visibility was great.

I bought 2 tickets same day at a discounted rate for general admission to The View Palm Jumeirah for 11:30 a.m. on a Friday and had no wait to take the elevator to the 52nd floor. We also had no issue scanning the tickets we purchased with Headout via a screenshot that I took to capture my QR codes in case I didn't have internet access.

What is a hop-on hop-off tour?

Snap a selfie with the Burj Khalifa, channel your inner bargain hunter for gold in the souks, and then chill on Jumeirah Beach. The best part? There are multiple routes, and you hop off when you're feeling it, explore at your own pace, and then jump on the next bus. It's idiot-proof, and trust us, this is way more fun than deciphering the metro maps.

How to choose the best Hop-on Hop-off tour

With two operators, Big Bus tours in Dubai and City Sightseeing Dubai, to choose from, make sure to pick from modern marvels and heritage haunts. While the perks like audio guides and free mobile apps remain the same, the routes and optional upgrades are as different as shawarma and sushi. So, here’s what you need to know before booking Dubai hop-on hop-off tickets. 

  • Budget-friendly picks: Both Big Bus and City Sightseeing tours come with a similar price tag, but if you’re counting dirhams – especially as a student, solo traveler, or budget-savvy explorer – City Sightseeing Dubai gives you the best bang for your buck. 
  • Dubai after dark: Dubai at night? Absolute magic. Big Bus rolls out a 2.5-hour guided night tour, lighting up the Burj Khalifa and Jumeirah Lake Towers. But if you’d rather keep things simple, City Sightseeing throws in a 2-hour sunset/night tour for free with your daytime ticket.
  • Free cruise & optional upgrades: Both tours hook you up with a traditional Dhow Creek cruise because every Dubai trip needs a little time on the water. Want more? Big Bus lets you add Madame Tussauds and Lost Chambers Aquarium, while City Sightseeing swaps Tussauds for Aquaventure Waterpark. Pick your favorite and dive in.
  • Abu Dhabi bonus round: Why stop at Dubai when Abu Dhabi’s right next door? Big Bus has you covered with an Abu Dhabi hop-on hop-off tour, plus Louvre Museum entry and guided tours of Sheikh Zayed Mosque and the Presidential Palace. One operator, two cities, endless bragging rights.

Finding the perfect Hop-on Hop-off pass duration

  • 48-Hour Pass: Split your sightseeing between old Dubai’s souks and creekside charm and the glitz of Downtown and the Marina. Ideal for those who want a solid mix of iconic landmarks, shopping, and a bit of relaxation in between.
  • 72-Hour Pass: With this pass, you can take your time, hop off for long lunches, and maybe even squeeze in an upgrade – Aquaventure, anyone? Great for those who want to fully experience Dubai without feeling like they’re on a sightseeing sprint.
  • 120-Hour Pass: If you love really getting to know a city, this pass is your best friend. 120 hours give you the freedom to explore at a leisurely pace, revisit favorite spots, and even take a day trip to Abu Dhabi. No FOMO, just pure sightseeing bliss.
  • 2 or 3-Day Passes: Unlike the 48/72-hour passes, the 2 or 3-day passes work on two/three calendar days, so you can start fresh each morning.

Ideal if you want to explore at a relaxed pace, throw in a beach break, or just not worry about squeezing everything in.

Tips to make the best of your Hop-on Hop-off Dubai tour

  • Dubai’s roads love a good traffic, especially in the evenings. Start early to cover major attractions before rush hour hits. 
  • Sightseeing is fun, but free-falling over Palm Jumeirah? Next level. Pair your bus tour with a skydiving experience or swap a museum visit for a dune-smashing desert safari
  • Why pay extra when you can bundle the fun? Snag a combo ticket with Dubai Frame or The View at The Palm for skyline views that scream “screensaver material.” 
  • Dubai’s sun doesn’t play, so pack your shades, slap on sunscreen, and grab a hat unless you want to roast. The top deck offers the best views, but if it feels like you’re on a human-sized grill, retreat downstairs to the cool zone.
  • Want the best skyline snaps? Grab a top-deck seat on the right for epic views of Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain, or sit left for coastal stunners like Atlantis and Burj Al Arab.

Small bags and backpacks are usually acceptable. However, large luggage items might not be accommodated due to space constraints.
