4.00Was not a hop on / off. Only on. It would be nice if this had been disclosed. Narrator did a very nice job. Driver may have been a little jumpy with the brakes. We sent a message ahead and have still not heard back.
Great tour ! Highly recommended. Lovely tour guide , I think her name was Michelle

4.00The tour was not bad just that you didn't see much since the. Weather was bad and we had to stay inside .. I would have preferred a “hop on-off” to be able to get off and see better The guide was very thorough and prepared - recommended maybe on a sunny day ☀️!
Great start to our trip

4.00Very informative trip but the announcer talked very fast and went between English and Spanish so we missed a few things. We were so cold and trying to stay dry so it wasn’t all his fault . Overall it is a wonderful tour.
Raining don’t matter

3.00The tour was fast and not really informative. It was hard to understand. The trip seems to happen very fast. I must say it was cold and you would want to seat at the top for pictures and better view
