4.00Great driver very helpful. The 1 thing we all didn't like 1 hour between each bus 1 driver 1 bus full bus all the time should have more buses on with all the people on it a bit wrong. It's not like they don't have the business 🙄

5.00The top deck was very pleasant in the sunshine. These are never made for people with long legs though. Hearing the history in an overview as e pass sights odd always a quick way to learn about the city and decide where to go.
Excellent way to see the city

5.00This is a very good way to see the city and get to Hobart’s attractions . The on board commentary was a great history lesson for for us on Hobart I would recommend a 48 hour pass, we had a 24 hour. There is so much to see we could not see all we wanted to
Great was to get around!
