Fun discovery of Toulouse with my son!

5.00Great ride with the CityTour! My 4-year-old son loved boarding the convertible bus to discover the monuments of Toulouse! The comments are clear and child-friendly, and the route allows you to see the essentials without getting tired. I recommend it for a one hour tour then follow to visit the city on foot in more detail!
Great romantic ride!

5.00We tested the CityTour as a couple and really loved it! The convertible bus allows you to see the whole city without getting tired, and the comments are super interesting without being too long. We discovered corners we didn’t know. The driver was super friendly, and the atmosphere was relaxed. Perfect for a romantic outing or with friends. We recommend 100%!

5.00Perfect to visit Toulouse, in an hour and have a very good overview of the whole city center. We loved it! I recommend to visit the city first, then walk to all neighborhoods, especially the old ones like Carmelites or Esquirol 👍

5.00An absolutely magical experience to discover Toulouse! We loved the convertible bus, it is very original, friendly and perfect to enjoy the view of the most beautiful monuments of the Pink City. Especially with family with a baby;) In barely 1 hour, we laughed in front of the Basilica of Saint-Sernin, the Canal du Midi, the Garonne, the Cathedral of Saint-Étienne, the Japanese Gardens... a really complete circuit!

Don’t bother total waste of money

1.00Don’t waste your money Driver really rude made passenger with pre-booked ticket move so a couple he’d got friendly with could take the better seats despite no assigned seating. Cramped mini bus only a small section at the back is open top with limited seating. No air con in the inside section gets very hot because of the glass roof it’s so uncomfortable for an hour. The audio doesn’t match with the surroundings a lot of the time and doesn’t go into great detail.
Good experience

4.00Overall good experience, bus was on time and the audio guide was enough. The bus showed the major sights and covered old part of the city in 40mins. Driver was courteous. However, this is not a hop-on-hop-off experience so one cannot get on or off at will.
Good Intro to Toulouse for first visitors.

5.00This bus tour is a great introduction to Toulouse for first time visitors, which we were. It provides a sense of the city. Sit in the covered part of the bus so you can hear the guide as he tells you about the city and the sights you are passing. It is difficult to hear, even with the earphones in the back of the bus. The ride begins just off the main square in the city and is about 70 minutes long.
Good Basic Introduction to Toulouse for Visitors

4.00This bus tour introduced us to Toulouse. The sound system was not very good- I sat at the edge of the overhead covering and open space- so sit inside the covering to hear better. There was a map of the area to be toured which was very helpful. This is a good initial experience before you start your trip visiting the sites in Toulouse. It is reasonable priced.
