A fantastic coverage of areas and sights. Unlimited free cold water all day. Lovely helpful staff. Disappointing that the dhow cruise was unavailable - the 40 minute yacht cruise was ok but a bit boring.

This tour promises a lot to new arrivals in the city. But interest quickly recedes as everything seems the same everywhere. Better commentary with more explanation and comments better timed to the location being experienced would be a big improvement.

Well worth the money,

Highly rated and a great way to get your first taste of Abu Dhabi - a spotlessly clean and beautifully designed and laid out city. The bus met the ship at the dockside and ran an exclusive return shuttle on the return leg. Staff were in attendance at every stop to offer help and advice if required and the audio commentary was both extremely informative and also of a very good audio quality. Plan carefully if you intend to include the Yas Island element because, depending on the amount of shore time available, the timetables of the two bus routes do not necessarily dovetail very well. We didn't think we would have time as we would have had too long to wait at the Grand Mosque for the connection. Don't miss the mosque by the way ! Highly recommend this tour with or without Yas.

I simply didnt know this was a thing in Abu Dhabi. Once I realised, I rollecup. The commentary seems to have lots of repeats, but aside from that it was an excellent way to orientate yourself to the city.

Great bus tour and lovely cruise on the river. Only down side, no shelter at the bus stop after getting off the boat and had to wait 20 min in the sun and heat for next bus. Other than that it was spot on.

This hop-on-hop-off was wonderful. I was happy to be relaxing and snapping photos rather than navigating a rental car or finding parking. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I was grateful to find them stationed at the drop locations ready to answer all kinds of questions and assist with scheduling. Charlotte, Rachel and Kamal were fabulous helping me plan to see the most and be on time. One day is not enough time to do it all. I bought the two day ticket and could have easily used another day. Well worth the money.

As always Big Bus Hop-on Hop-off offer an easy, fun, easy way to see the sights of a major city. They're great.

Really good!

Expensive compared to other bus tours around the world, but nice enough to see sights. Friendly staff and drivers. Water supplied and head phones. Ticket includes to of sky tower but that isn't as good as you may think - glass needs cleaning for a start. You also get a lot of discount vouchers.

Cruise ship in port meant that the bus was overfull and crowded. No information on the maps about what is at each stop. One stop was eliminated due to winds, but we weren't told, we had to ask how come he did not stop at the boats.

Would have enjoyed tour more if the driver had not spent so much time on his mobile phone while driving This made us a bit wary due to the amount of times he looked away from the road down to his phone

This tour showed you what there was to see in Abu Dhabi, which unfortunately not a lot unless your are into building sites.The included dow ride was restful and gives you a good view of the high rise buildings in the city. The mosque is magnificent and is a must to hop off. There was insufficient information given at the start of the tour and we missed the Sky Tower and because it was a national day some of the attractions were closed, this shoulld have been made known before we booked. By comparison to other hop on hop offs we have done it is over priced

This ride helps a lot at the begining of your stay in Abu Dhabi, so you can then select the tours and places you want to visit with more time.

Good way to get around Abu Dhabi but trip out to Yas was a waste of time and takes a long time and limited busses
Review by: Deborah B, July 2016
The best way to see Abu Dhabi in a day A shame some of the attractions were closed though. Enjoyed the tour
