The bus runs very little, which is why it is more of a bus tour. If you want to get off at a stop, you have to spend 3 hours there until the next bust comes. I did the red route first and then the green route. Both were very nice and you could see a lot from the bus. The bus itself is air-conditioned, but rather a bit older. Not all headphone stations worked. The bus drivers were exceptionally friendly and helpful. One of the bus drivers later even took me to the airport in his private car. Price-performance rather expensive, but recommended if you don't get out and want to see the city briefly during a stopover.

Theoretically, you can also use the ticket for the next day if you interrupt your tour in between. I opted for the last tour of the day at 5pm. This lasted 1.5 hours and ran along all the important sights. The bus itself was getting a bit old, there was a loose contact with the new headphones in one place or another. The content wasn't quite as up-to-date anymore either. That should actually be expected for the price. The on-site staff was very nice, the bus driver tried very hard to drive slowly at all 'photo spots' so that you could take good photos. I recommend this sunset tour to anyone who doesn't know what to do on a Monday in Abu Dhabi (Louvre closed!) with massive heat.

Wonderful and completely sufficient to get to know the highlights in Abu Dhabi in a quick run or as an overview. When booking, you just have to be clear that you can only drive the red route and not the green one (Grand Mosque) with the Classic tariff (i.e. the simplest card).
