Big Bus Tours New York — Frequently Asked Questions

This hop-on hop-off tour provides a comprehensive way to see major Manhattan landmarks and neighborhoods with informative commentary. It offers the flexibility to explore the city at your own pace and easily navigate between top attractions.
You can purchase your tickets directly through HolidaySG to secure your pass before arriving in New York. Booking online ensures you have your voucher ready for a seamless boarding experience at any designated stop.
Completing the full loop without hopping off typically takes about two to three hours depending on city traffic. Your ticket allows you to hop on and off at any designated stop along the route to spend as much time as you like at each location.
A standard ticket includes hop-on hop-off access to the Downtown and Uptown Manhattan routes, live English-speaking guides on select buses, and pre-recorded audio commentary in multiple languages.

The buses are equipped with wheelchair ramps and dedicated spaces on the lower enclosed deck, but the upper open-air deck is not accessible for wheelchairs.

No, the Night Tour is a separate, non-hop-on hop-off experience that requires an upgraded ticket and departs from a specific Times Square location.
You must bring your own wired headphones with a standard 3.5mm jack to plug into the seat consoles, as wireless Bluetooth headphones will not connect to the system.

Only certified service animals are permitted on the buses, while regular pets and emotional support animals are strictly prohibited.
Large luggage and suitcases are not permitted on board due to limited space, so passengers should only bring small day bags or backpacks.
The standard Downtown and Uptown routes operate exclusively within the borough of Manhattan and do not cross the bridges into Brooklyn or other outer boroughs.
