Excellent, very kind staff and good audioguide. You can see very good from the upper part of the bus and everything is very well explained

we very much enjoyed how the driver of our bus was very nice and took pictures of us when we didn't have the ability to do it just right/he was like a professional photographer and his wonderful name was mark williams.
the sights of the tour are very beautiful,the music is like a commercial in the middle of each session with the kids who talk about the fun facts of each sight and they tell funny jokes but call them the big bus news which you listen to on the headphones they provide.THANK YOU MARK WILLIAMS.

Would go again! Really fun and informative trip. Everyone from my 8 year old to my aunt loved it. I’m the winter, dress really warm if you want to sit up top. We were freezing!!! But downstairs is cozy warm, but you don’t have as good a view.

Mark Williams was very helpful and friendly and the children found him very funny. He gave us all the information we needed and we felt really prepared. It was a great tour and well worth getting a feel for the city in one swoop and then you can also use it then to hop on and off.
