From Kenya to Dubai: Big Bus Tours Made It Magical - As the CEO of Kenyan Heritage Tours, a growing tour agency in Kenya, I recently visited Dubai for the first time to explore the city before bringing my future clients. Choosing Big Bus Tours was the best decision I made it was an unforgettable experience! From the start, Minhaj (Stop 13) warmly welcomed me and went above and beyond to guide me since I wasn’t sure what to do at first. His kindness and patience made me feel at ease. At Dubai Mall, I met the lovely Esther, who not only issued my receipt but also took the time to clearly explain all the tour routes. She helped me choose the perfect one the Blue Line for my first experience. A big thank you to Zahid, who helped capture beautiful memories with amazing photos, and to Paul, who also took a great picture of me at one of the stops. Both were friendly and professional. Dhijil was another gem on the team kind, polite, and helpful in every way. The Dhow Cruise was the cherry on top! A magical evening I’ll never forget. As a tour operator, I truly appreciate the excellent customer service, well-organized routes, and overall smooth experience. I will highly recommend Big Bus Tours to all my future clients and will definitely be back with groups from Kenyan Heritage Tours. I also hope to receive special rates or discounts in the future for our partnership Thank you, Big Bus Team, for making my first Dubai visit so memorable.

Dubai Big Bus Hop on Hop Off - This is our second day on the Big Bus, and so far it has been an awesome experience. Tonight we went to the Desert Safari tour. Our bus driver Raju went above and beyond his duty to ensure we had a wonderful time, capturing the moment by taking photos for us. 5 Star service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
