For at half of the journey, audio commentary did not work. Part of the issue was the driver did not turn it on and did not speak English. There was no signage on the buses as to which language was on which channel (English was on channel 3 on one bus and channel 5 on another). Also, the buses did not to the timetable - often the bus departed at least 5 minutes before the time shown in the timetable.

the map provided to customers is not very clear. the duration of the Service only until 16.30, it would be appropriate to extend it until 19/20h, especially when you have little time available. However, it is always useful to use this Service doing the full tour first and then choose the places that interest you most.
