FamilyVerified booking2 days ago5/5We had a great experience with the Big Bus Tour in Hong Kong. The routes covered many of the city's major attractions, making it an easy and convenient way to explore without worrying about transportation. The buses were clean, comfortable, and ran frequently, so we never had to wait long. The audio commentary was informative and provided interesting facts about Hong Kong's history, culture, and landmarks. We especially enjoyed being able to hop on and off at different stops to explore at our own pace. The staff were friendly, helpful, and well-organized, making the entire experience smooth from start to finish. Overall, the tour offered excellent value for money and is a great option for first-time visitors or anyone wanting to see the highlights of Hong Kong in a relaxed and enjoyable way. We would definitely recommend it.DDerek S
SoloVerified booking2 weeks ago4/5My feelings are mixed. I did enjoy the bus tour itself and it met my expectations - I saw everything that I wanted to see. However, the process of my getting there was highly flawed and does need your attention. It literally took me hours to find the Big Bus stop so that I could begin my tour. Yes...you gave me the general area, but not the precise address of the stop (by 'stop' I mean the Hop On location). I can appreciate that this is not necessarily an issue in a smaller market, such as Edinburgh, but in a large and somewhat hectic city like Paris or London it's a must. For your information! This must be improved!LLuis B
CoupleVerified booking6 days ago5/5The frequency of the buses is really good, on the bus information via the earphones is entertaining and Informative, the dri ers are friendly and very helpful, always to answer any questions, they speak English and Spanish, so big plus. The river cruise is a must, also the stuff at the pier very helpful, the views from the boat are great, information from the P.A. on the boat and download the app, is like having your own personal guide. 100% percent recommendAAinomaija H
CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago4/5Highlights of the trip included the Eiffel Tower, the new bridge "covered" (an art piece) near the Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral and the participants of the Paris Marathon running in large numbers along the banks of the Seine River. Due to the marathon, we did not visit the Arc de Triomphe, for example. The announced route had been changed on that day.JJennifer M
GroupVerified booking2 days ago5/5The Big Bus Tour was conveniently boarded close to our hotel and hit the main landmarks. Don't activate til you actually board. We lost 15+minutes because there was a bus parked when we arrived but that was not the one taking passengers. It's not a lot of time but it could have allowed us more time the next day to ride to 2 atrás.
