In this paper, we study the Riemannian submersions : MB whose total manifolds admit an almost Yamabe soliton. Here, we give some necessary conditions for which any fiber of or B are almost Yamabe soliton or Yamabe soliton. Also, we calculate the scalar curvatures of any fiber and B and using them, we present the relations between the scalar curvatures of them and obtain some characterizations of such a soliton (that is, shrinking, steady or expanding).
