Excellent experience to see city in short period of time. Brochure was more helpful compared to microphone commentary.

We experienced problems using this bus. It was difficult to know where the pickups were. We ended up going the wrong way and it took forever to get to the water tower. Buses stopped at 3pm for the parade. So we took a very expensive bus ride from stop 4 (Hilton) to the water tower. Operators did not respond to our calls or messages until almost 8-10 hours later. Very disappointing
