We were able to get a relaxed overview of the city and the sights and were given interesting details by the audio guide. And we liked it a lot.

I liked absolutely everything. Easy and clear ticketing, friendly staff and bus drivers. The buses themselves are comfortable, the route is great. Everything was super. Thank you very much.

Stops are at tourist hotspots, and ride times are frequent. It would be nice if the service were also available in the evening
