Clyde & Co Advised Big Bus Tours On Strategic Acquisition Of Tour Dubai
Global law firm Clyde & Co has advised Big Bus Tours' recent acquisition of Tour Dubai, a leading experience operator in the bustling tourism hub of Dubai. This strategic move not only bolsters Big Bus Tours' presence in the Middle East but also underscores the company's broader vision to enrich its customers' experiences worldwide.
Big Bus Tours, renowned as the world’s largest operator of open-top sightseeing experiences, operates in 26 iconic cities spanning four continents. With a mission to inspire adventure and exploration, the company's acquisition of Tour Dubai represents a significant step towards diversifying its offerings and solidifying its position as a premier global tourist attraction.
Tour Dubai, boasting over three decades of experience in delivering premium and authentic adventures, brings a wealth of expertise and a respected tourism brand to the Big Bus Tours portfolio. By joining forces with Tower Tours in San Francisco and Singapore Duck Tours, Tour Dubai becomes an integral part of the Big Bus Tours family, enhancing the group's capacity to deliver exceptional experiences to travelers worldwide.
St. John Cooper, Executive Vice President of Middle East and Asia Pacific at Big Bus Tours, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition, stating, "We are excited to welcome Tour Dubai to the Big Bus Tours Group. Anup and his team have created a business with vast experience and outstanding offerings that align perfectly with our mission to be the top activity in every world-famous city."
Clyde & Co played a crucial role as lead counsel to Big Bus Tours throughout the acquisition process. Naji Hawayek, Partner and Head of Corporate – Middle East, led Clyde & Co's cross-practice team, which included senior associate Ghalya Rashid Ali and associate Sinan Amso. The team's expertise spanned various legal aspects, with support from partners Sara Khoja (employment), Alexis Waller (real estate), and Alex Lester (dispute resolution), as well as other legal professionals such as legal director Maher Al Nashar, senior associate Lucy Nash, associate Raahil Mirchandani, and specialist Chady Deeb.
