About The Big
Bus Company
We have been operating in Dubai since May 2002 but the Big Bus
Company was originally formed in London in 1991 by the Maybury
family, Richard, Eleanor and Desmond. Starting with only two
buses we now carry a million people a year in London. We provide
a unique product with our popular hop-on hop-off City and Beach
tours. Our buses are traditional open-top, double-decker London
buses and we currently have a fleet of eight vehicles imported
from the UK. In addition to Dubai and London we opened our first
USA operation in Philadelphia in May 2003. All our buses worldwide
are painted in the traditional Big Bus livery of burgundy and
cream.
Big Bus Tour Guides are specially trained and licensed by the
DTCM (Department Tourism and Commerce Marketing). Our tours,
which are fully guided in English, are fun and informative and
detail Dubais evolving history, culture and economy. All
the major landmarks are pointed out.
Our City and Beach tours provide a great introduction to Dubai,
whilst helping you discover the citys amazing history
and many of its hidden secrets.
