5.00We had an excellent Big Bus tour today, made truly special by our driver Meeran. From the very beginning, his kindness and genuine care for passengers stood out. He was incredibly warm, patient, and always willing to help, making everyone feel welcomed and comfortable throughout the tour. Meeran has such a positive and sincere attitude — the kind that can’t be taught. He went above and beyond to ensure everyone was enjoying the experience, always checking in and offering assistance with a smile. His driving was very safe and smooth, which made the journey relaxing and stress-free. It’s rare to meet someone so genuinely kind and dedicated to their role. Meeran is a true credit to the Big Bus team. Thank you for such a wonderful experience — highly recommend!!

5.00I would like to sincerely thank your employees Ana and Dilini for their kindness. They really helped me a lot with their information and tips. In addition, the two were so kind to help me reschedule an already purchased ticket, as I could not participate in the planned tour at the last minute because I had to work. So once again, many thanks to Ana and Dilini and a big compliment to the company for having such competent and friendly employees!

5.00A very good memorable trip, excellent service, punctual and helpful staff (thanks to Meeran and Amjad). Amazing site seeing with lots of places to visit including national day celebrations.
Worth every penny!

5.00Absolutely worth every penny! Plenty of things to see at your own leisure. I’d recommend the 2 day tour as a minimum. We do the red route, on day one. Went into the Louvre Museum, which is definitely worth the visit. And day 2 on the green line to the grand mosque, that is an absolute must. It takes your breath away. All the staff and so friendly and welcoming and extremely helpful. I would most definitely recommend this as part of your trip to Abu Dhabi with out a doubt!!
Excellent tour with Raju
