It was just okay... they do not go to the mosque, which was disappointing.. Next time I would probably take a taxi and have him wait while we take a few photos...

We paid €71 per head for a very basic tour in the rain. It isn’t BiG Bus’s fault for the rain, but the bus leaked like a sieve!

Last week we went to Berlin and the same company gave us a two day two route pass including a walking tour for €25 a head. Now that”s value!!
There was a problem with the bus program, so we only had a panoramic trip which showed us main touristic places of Muscat. Driver very helpful. Got to go to Souk Matarh which is a great place for shopping.

Great tour although the old town was rather elusive! It would be very useful to know that the tour starts at the cruise terminal when ships are in, which is where we joined it. This info was not on the big bus web site. This also applies to Abu Dhabi

The big bus in Muscat is efficient and the staff is most helpful. We received great service from JHAY.

This was a very pleasant and informative way to see as much of Muscat as I could in one whole day. Ms Aimee was very helpful in getting me set on the tour and I thoroughly enjoyed it and found the commentary excellent, especially as it was through a multi-track device and you could hear it in...
This was a very pleasant and informative way to see as much of Muscat as I could in one whole day. Ms Aimee was very helpful in getting me set on the tour and I thoroughly enjoyed it and found the commentary excellent, especially as it was through a multi-track device and you could hear it in just one language. I would have liked to be able to see a more detailed map before hand so that if I wanted to hop off I would be able to get around.
