Do I need to print my ticket?

No. Your ticket is delivered digitally and can be shown on your smartphone when boarding — no printing required.

Can I use both the Red and Blue routes on one ticket?

Yes. A single ticket gives you access to both the City (Red) and Beach (Blue) routes for the duration of your pass.

How often do the buses run?

Bus frequency and daily operating hours vary by route. Check the official route map at http://bit.ly/46EfEcT for up-to-date timetables, as these are subject to change.

Is this suitable for children?

Yes. Children under 3 travel free of charge, though they will not be allocated a separate seat. All children must be accompanied by an adult.

What is the Dubai Creek dhow cruise, and is it included?

The dhow cruise is an optional addition departing hourly from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM from Stop 5, Al Seef Street. Check your specific ticket type to confirm whether it is included.

What happens if it rains or the open deck is uncomfortable?

Big Bus vehicles have a covered lower deck, so you can move inside if the weather turns or if the sun is too intense on the upper deck.
