The headphones on the bus were not ideal. The voice guide was barely understandable. The journey was rarely consistent with the language guide.View original review in GermanRosalva

Good staff, especially the person who checks the tickets at the entrance of the bus. As for the route, I think it takes a long time at each stop and a lot of time is wasted.View original review in Spanish

We waited a long time for the blue route to start at stop 1 after riding the red route. It was not worth the 45 minute wait, as half the stops duplicated with red and the others were not worthwhile.

Bus was fine and it seemed to cover all the main points, buying the tkts was easy but there is not enough detail on the pick up points exact location .... bus audio worked well and we were quite happy
