Schedules
Big Bus Tours Muscat operates two different schedules. On days when cruise ships are in port, we operate hop-on, hop-off bus tours every 30 minutes between the hours of 8:15am and 5:15pm. On non-cruise-ship days, we operate two panoramic tours each day, at 10:30am and 2:30pm. These panoramic tours are not hop-on, hop-off tours. For more information about cruise ship days, please see our Cruise Ship Schedule PDF.
