Is X22 Bus Worth Traveling?

The local residents already know how good the X22 bus service is but the new residents and visitors don’t know that. Therefore they think if the X22 bus worth traveling or they should book a taxi. Well, I have 10+ years of experience in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and other Emirates of the UAE.

As per my experience, the RTA X22 bus service is the best travel option at the lowest possible cost for everyone. The bus fare is cheap i.e. 5 Dhs but the X22 bus is luxurious, it has air-condition, free WiFi, premium leather seats, odorless atmosphere and much more.

If you are new in Dubai, I want to tell you that you should always prefer the public transport buses and Metro trains to move around Dubai and to other Emirates as well. Because the Dubai Public Transport is one of the best in the world and every visitor should experience it.

So, the clear answer to the above question (Is X22 bus worth traveling?) is YES, the X22 bus is worth traveling every time you want to travel from Al Qusais Industrial Area to Business Bay and from Business Bay to Al Qusais in Dubai.
