It's a good idea the bus to see many places in one day. The thing to improve is better signs of the bus stops, and some workers are rude. Don't forget that we pay as tourist to see and enjoy your city, so the human part is very important for us, don't be rude and answer like if we are annoying you.

Ticketing online was super easy. The locations of the stops were perfect. We only had 1 full day in Chicago and this was the best way to see a lot in a little bit of time!

Candice is a super awesome driver. No need for the commentary from the audio, she is very knowledgeable about Chicago's history, and made sure everyone remained safe while on the bus.

Whenever guests visit us, we always make sure that the Hop On/Hop Off Big Bus ride is on the agenda. It's truly the best way to see Chicago. However, I do miss having a live, human tour guide providing narration of the tour. Sure, plugging in the earplugs is fine, but it's just not the same. I left a big disappointed.
