    We like the tour except the bus wait was so long. We feel there were less buses vs the number of tickets sold because it’s the line was to get in the bus in every stop.

    A great way to get around a large city. Highly recommend for when it’s hot as you can stay downstairs in the AC and get all around the city. I don’t love the recorded tour guides with headphones. Wish it was a live tour guide. The included boat tour was also great.

    Be sure you have good addresses for bus stops many not marked well no help calling them. Rode bus with mess screens on windows so couldn’t see sights very well. Also raining so couldn’t see anything with mess screens. Rained and back seat leaked had water leaking over people If you don’t have internet you’re screwed to find stops ..map was no help
