Night tour
The night tour of the Dubai sightseeing bus allows you to enjoy the main sights of the city all lit up at night. During this tour, you won't be able to get on and off at each stop, but instead, take a 2.5-hour panoramic tour with live commentary by an English-speaking guide.
Is It Worthwhile?
The Dubai sightseeing bus ticket is quite expensive, so we only recommend it for those who are going to have time to take advantage of it during their trip.
If you're not going to have much time to go on the tours and get off at the various stops, you might consider the option of booking a tour with an English-speaking guide for a similar price:
