Big Bus Tours, the world's leading operator of open top double decker buses now operates in thirteen different cities in North America, Europe, The Middle East and Asia.

With operations in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Miami, Philadelphia, Washington DC, London, Paris, Rome, Budapest, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Muscat, Shanghai and Hong Kong, Big Bus Tours has become the largest operator of open top double decker bus businesses in the world.

Demonstrating dramatic growth, Big Bus Tours continues to open new cities and unlike other operators, the preferred style of expansion for Big Bus Tours is with wholly owned businesses or joint venture/partnerships.  Expanding this way has ensured that Big Bus Tours can focus on quality and consistency across all of its global operations, and while this method of expansion may be more resource heavy than a franchise model, looking at the standards across the Big Bus Group it is clear that if you care about quality, it is worth the extra resources.

Chris Crompton, Regional Director USA, explained further, “In many businesses the franchise model is a quick way to extend your reach and expose your brand to new markets, and the open top double decker bus business is no different.  However, if you choose this style of expansion, it is then extremely difficult to maintain and manage the standards that the culture of Big Bus has been built on.  With the Big Bus model of partnership and management involvement, wherever a customer hops on a Big Bus double decker they can be sure that they will receive the same high standard of service and care that any of our passengers do worldwide”.

Big Bus Tours is the largest operator of open top double decker buses in the world and currently has operations in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Miami, Philadelphia, Washington DC, London, Paris, Rome, Budapest, Abu Dhabi, Muscat, Shanghai and Hong Kong.
