    Ticketing was done online. We just showed our paper ticket and hopped right on the bus. We loved seeing and hearing (don't forget to take earphones that are free) places on the bus. Very easy to get off and get back on.

    The audio part was great. Very upbeat and informative. We always got a seat up top - it wasn't overcrowded. The ticketing process was easy. The stops were selected to give us access to many interesting locations near the stops. The men working at and on the buses were very polite and helpful. We would definitely do it again.

    I thought the audio was informative but it was out of sync on our first ride and we missed our exit for the statue of liberty. Also it was raining and I saw that other hoping hopoff providers provided rain ponchos. I did not realize that there were two other providers, top view and gray line. This caused quite a bit of confusion. Using the receipt as proof of ticket was not optimal as, with the rain, it became a wet mess and the driver did not want to accept my mobile receipt after our first ride, they wanted to see the paper receipt which had became unusable. There appeared to be no way to replace it.

    The crew on our bus were very willing to help us find a lost item (a tiny diamond necklace) long after we had left the bus (it came back around twice) and they very graciously looked all over for it, and it was even eventually found! Thanks to the crew for going above and beyond.
