Step by Step
The Abu Dhabi Big Bus sightseeing bus is the most convenient way to explore the city at your own pace, without the constraints of a group tour. You can tailor your visit to suit your preferences, starting by choosing between the two available routes during the 24, 48 or 72-hour validity period of your ticket.
- The red route, the City Tour, takes approximately 2 hours in total (if you complete the full circuit) and has 14 stops throughout the city
- The green route, the Sheikh Zayed route, takes approximately 2 hours in total (if you complete the full circuit) and has just two stops: Abu Dhabi Mall and the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque
Your pass allows you to hop on and off the bus as often as you like during its validity period and enjoy the on-board audio guide , as well as including a visit to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque.
The main difference between the passes lies in the duration and the additional experiences included. The 24-hour ticket is perfect for a first taste of the city and includes a visit to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. The 48-hour pass adds the Louvre Abu Dhabi, whilst the 72-hour pass also includes the Presidential Palace, making it the most comprehensive option for exploring Abu Dhabi at a more leisurely pace
To make the most of your visit to the city, you can use the on-board audio guide. You’ll receive commentary on the city’s main attractions as the tour progresses. You can choose whether to enjoy it from the air-conditioned lower deck or the open-air upper deck with its panoramic views.
