Highly recommend

Dana_B, Apr 2026
Great attraction. Educational information of Las Vegas and the history of the casinos. Driver was fantastic. She ensured that our safety was a top priority. Highly recommend if you visit Las Vegas.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Dana_B. We wish to thank you for your feedback. We are happy to learn that you enjoyed the tour in Las Vegas, and that it was both educational and safe. We hope to have you back soon. Best, Vlad from Big Bus Tours.

Not worth

Mona_V, Apr 2026
We felt it was too expensive- taxi would definitely work out cheaper and less tiring. The staff - drivers were very helpful and polite. Biggest issue was - the bus stops at very few stops which does not help as to reach your destination, you end up walking for very very long distances which can be very tiring. Also, second day the bus was terminated but there was no notice on app. We wasted our half day waiting as we had plans for second day. Highly recommended taxi over this as you can actually reach your destination exactly where you want. And works out a lot cheaper too.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hello Mona_V! We truly appreciate your feedback. We're sorry to learn that the tour didn't meet your expectations, with only a few stops and considerable distances in between. You can find the route on our website, allowing you to review it before the tour and plan your visit accordingly. We're excited to share that we have nine key stops in Las Vegas, showcasing the city's most significant attractions. While a taxi can transport you from one location to another, it can't provide the immersive experience we offer, nor can it share insights about Las Vegas like our tour does. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Best regards, Vlad from Big Bus Tours.

Great way to see las vegas and get your bearings, takes about an hour to do full route, very informative, can get on and off as many times in 24 hours, we done red hop on off bus in every city we gone to really helps you work out where you want to go and see x

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi there, Debbie! Thank you so much for your feedback. We're thrilled to know that the tour was a fantastic way to discover Las Vegas, and that it was both informative and helpful in getting to know the city. We can't wait to have you back soon. Best wishes, Vlad from Big Bus Tours.

Viva Las Vegas

Staff was professional and very helpful on time with the picking up and dropping off and very helpful. I’m pleased with the services provided.

We did the 48 hour...

Amelia_W, Mar 2026
We did the 48 hour ticket. Started our first day at stop 2 @10:15 am. We chose to ride the entire route to get a tour of the area. Took 2 hours. We were on the first route of the day and bus was full on a Saturday morning. Our driver, Deseria was OUTSTANDING! She was a born and raised local and embellished the tour with personal touches. We learned the route does stop when arriving back at the beginning, stop 1. We had to get off bus and get on a different bus to continue tour to stop 2 to complete the entire route. This was not a problem. We did get a new driver and he chose to play the recorded tape for the tour. Our second day, we got on again at stop #2 and road to the Mob Museum. Our driver played the recorded tape and it was educational. We were told the buses came every 40 minutes and this worked out. The employee checking us in at stop #2 provided an opportunity to take a photo of the daily bus stop schedule. This helped alot. I did have to ask to take the photo. Of note: I lost a sentimental piece of jewelry somewhere in town. I reached out to BigBus to see if they had found it on the bus. Employee, Claudia and her team were VERY responsive with personal phone calls. Sadly they did not locate the item and I may have lost it on the airplane. Highly recommend the tour and staff of Big Bus LasVegas .

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Informative

Veronica_W, Mar 2026
The tour was informative and plenty to see. Since I'm a solo traveler, I did the daytime tour. I'm sure the night tour is spectacular

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hi Veronica_W. We wish to thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you found the tour informative, and enjoyable. Indeed, our Night Tour is spectacular, but the day time tour is surely as impressive. We hope to have you back soon. Best, Vlad from Big Bus Tours.

Jan_P, Mar 2026
Very informative narrated tour. Headphones are not needed or provided. Be sure to wear sunscreen and a hat if you sit on the outside top deck!! My partner got too much sun on his arms and got a bit sunburned.

Good ride.

Tim_F, Mar 2026
Good overview of Las Vegas. Alvina our bus driver was informative and humorous. Time between buses, 45 minutes, a little long.

Valerie_R, Mar 2026
Great to be able to get on and off. Great information. Great bus driver. Great intro to Las Vegas for visitors

Don’t buy these tickets

Suzanne_B, Mar 2026
This is not worth the money - limited stops and very infrequent- for $8 you can ride the regular bus that stops everywhere and runs every 10 minutes. Big bus was very disappointing.

Great experience! So...

DONT do it!!

Nita_C, Mar 2026
Don’t do it. We waited by the Big Bus sign for 1 1/2 hrs and no bus came. By the MGM. WHAT A CRAPPY NITE. I Want my money back for 2 people. I can’t recommend this to anyone. You deserve a bad review!! We were there early and stayed late. You have cc number. Reimburse me. Nita Cheatham. 405 615 8912. This was our 71st birthday week and this is how Vegas treat us. If I don’t get reimbursed, expect a bad review!!!

Please contact us directly via email or live chat to be able to gather as many info as possible about what exactly happened and find a solution together! Looking forward to hearing from you.

RUTH_W, Mar 2026
Could not understand the recording or the driver if sitting upstairs….downstairs there was no air conditioning…it was unbearable. Had to wait over an hour at one stop. Would not recommend to anyone.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Stay away!

Carol_Z, Feb 2026
Bad experience! Waited over an hour for bus. Website says every 30 minutes. Bus was not air conditioned. Got off after first stop. Trying to get refund and they are making it impossible. Horrible customer service. Stay away!!!

Chaos Rules!

Mary_T, Feb 2026
The tour itself was fine but the tour company was very disorganized. We waited for 45 minutes for a bus and all they could say was 5 more minutes! Very frustrating!

Not enough busses. ...

Dana_C, Feb 2026
Not enough busses. People couldn't get on. Bus drivers are wonderful Pick up times should be every 15 minutes not 60.

Board early

Cathy_S, Feb 2026
Definitely get on as early as possible if planning to hop off to explore anything. Between the stops and traffic it's over 2 hours to round trip the tour.

Derrick the driver was...

Mel_A, Feb 2026
Derrick the driver was awesome. But schedule of the bus is undependable. We hop off and did not hop on because we were waiting forever and just got taxi to return.

Coretta_O, Feb 2026
The driver, Alvina, was a fantastic driver with the huge bus, tight corners, and vehicles everywhere. The tour and info provided was great as well. Thanks Alvina!

Sara_T, Feb 2026
We wanted to walk up and down the strip but seeing how much there was to it, we knew we wouldn’t get it accomplished so that’s why we decided to take the big bus tour and it was exactly what we wanted!

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Hi Sara_T! Thank you for your kind words, we're glad to hear that we were able to accommodate you while visiting Las Vegas and that you have enjoyed the tour. We hope to see you again soon! Eugen, Big Bus Tours

A grueling, dragged out experience

Christine_L, Feb 2026
We purchased a 2 day pass thinking we could use it to take us to several destinations in addition to orienting us to the city.. But on dsy 1 it took us hours to do the full trip. The buses only go by every 45 minutes, so if you get off at a stop you may wait up to 45 until it comes by again. Additionally, when we got to a stop by the M&M place, the driver took a lunch break for 30 additional minutes. We were so discouraged, we didn't use the day 2 pass and can't recommend the tour. It honestly felt like a wasted day.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Hi Christine_L! Thank you for your honest feedback, and we're sorry to hear that you could not enjoy the tour due to the lower than expected bus frequency. This is not the experience we aim to provide and hope to hear more from you regarding this through the Contact Us form found at the Big Bus Tours website, and we will be more than happy to provide you with an appropriate resolution. Eugen, Big Bus Tours

Not worth it!

Jody_B, Feb 2026
We had to wait an hour and a half for the bus. The sign said the bus should be 30 to 60 minutes apart. Obviously, that was incorrect! Finally, we get on and traveled to other drop off points. After stop 5 or 6, the driver said she'd be stopping for 30 minutes for her to take her lunch break. So again, we had to wait for our stop. We would have gotten off and walked, but our intended stop was too far for us to walk to.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Hi Jody_B, Thank you for your feedback! We are very sorry for the long wait. The frequency of our buses may be affected by traffic conditions, leading to possible delays. We recommend using the Live Tracking feature on our app to help plan your route on the day. We really hope that you will consider giving us another try in the future, as we are sure you would have a better time! Best wishes. Cristian T, Big Bus Tours
