The driver was excellent!! She navigated the crazy rush hour traffic fantastically, and was so pleasant throughout! The taped narrative was annoying - far too much self-deprecating humour was totally unnecessary! Remember it's mostly tourists that travel these buses, many with English as a second language, any humour is usually lost. As tourists we want the facts about what we are seeing. It would be much better if there was more specific instruction of where to look, left right, coming up. Also due to traffic much of the recording was off pace. The driver saved it!

App may not be exactly accurate about which stops are in service, and may be gps interference from the tall buildings, but bus is always on route except for midday on weekend if protests are happening in central area. I couldn't board on my start day on a Saturday because of the protests, but was pleased with customer service reassigning my start day to my requested weekday- I believe it was Jennifer who responded by email- thanks!! Otherwise fairly seamless entry and exit- excellent way to get your bearings on the city layout and see incredible views to plan your more in depth visits. Recommend the 72 hours so you can use all three major routes to see the city. Great audio guide available.

It was just unfortunate with the road closures and the diversion down vauxhaul as it took a very long time without any tour info. It was a decent day out and my son was able to have a little nap so that was ok. Would be nice to have more staff interaction on the bus though. Other hop on hop off buses had a guide on the top. Perhaps I just needed to read better next time.

Everyone was extremely helpful getting us around parts of the city we wanted to see. The cruise was also very informative and funny. Well worth the money

I have noticed that the buses do not operate as often as those of other companies, which has been quite inconvenient for my travel needs. Could you please provide information on whether there are any plans to increase the frequency of the services? I believe that improved schedules would greatly enhance the overall customer experience.
