I saw the whole city from above, very nice, but I was expecting the app provided when paying for tickets to show the location in real time maps with visualization of buses in traffic

the stops aren't regular, the staff aren't particularly friendly, the last bus of the day is much too early - it's a shame Berlin is beautiful ♥

A fun overview! Very friendly staff. The ticket itself is good for 24 hours but the buses run on a shorter daily schedule.

We remain Dutchmen; it took a while to find the best option for us (2 adults and 2 children) given the huge price differences. Varying from 16 to 30 euros pp.... finally found and bought a family card. The app of the tour should really be used, super handy that you can see where the buses are. Especially since the route is sometimes deviated from because of road closures or something. In addition, fine info and description, some buses were with NL audio, while this is not in the description. So it depends which bus you have. Nice experience, nice staff and beautiful routes (blue and red).

The tracking of the buses through the network was good. The only thing was that in several buses (in the upper front seats) the headphones had false contact.
