3.00A comfortable ride but could not always see/or match to the building or site that was being described. Description was not in sync with the sites.
No hopping on and off!

1.00I have done this sort of bus tour all over the world and it is usually a fantastic event! I was sorely disappointed. Firstly, we were told that the authorities has stopped the bus stopping and letting people on and off - so instead it was just a city tour bus. We opted to continue as we had always had great commentaries and so lots of information and history of the city. We were completely disappointed, the commentary was very very poor and told us very little about anything - there were lots of things we saw and would have liked to know more about. Not a good experience at all.
A fun tour.

5.00It was fun tour. It is panoramic tour!! It means you go for ride,but you can just get off at the end. And then change a bus for the other bus (one is historic Mad rid, one is a new Madrid.) But it was fun.
