“… you can hop on hop off at your own leisure and experience the best shopping, entertainment and tourist attractions that Dubai has to offer. The Boulevard Bus Tour really is the only way to discover ‘The Centre of Now’, one icon at a time,” says mydowntowndubai.com.
Tickets for the air-conditioned bus are currently priced at Dh10 (Dh5 each for ticket and fee) with the bus timings being 10 am to 10 pm daily. One can buy tickets at the Dubai Mall Trolley bus kiosks, or At The Top reception or even book online (https://tickets.atthetop.ae/eticketing/HomePage.aspx). More info
