Do not book!

1.00It is very badly planned, the routes are so slow you do not have time to actually hop on, hop off and actually get back to where you started. It is not possible. Our first bus was at 11:30 and we couldn’t get back in time after ONE hop off. We booked for friday and they changed to saturday so couldn’t use it when needed and had to take taxis instead which cost us 150 dolllars extra on top of the expensive ticket.
Disappointed

2.00Never tour late evening. Temperature drop no windows. No celebrity homes. Just old buildings where so and so rehearse. Not worth price.
