The audio gide was very informative and enjoyable. Always accompanied by beautiful orchestral music. The entrances and exits are always fixed. We had to look for where the bus was leaving and when. Round trips are good and pleasant.

The tour was as described. We traveled both lines and saw a lot. Unfortunately the air conditioning was defective in one bus. At 35 degrees it was like being in a sauna. We then changed to the next one. Here everything was okay again. Buses left every 20 minutes as described. You never had to wait long. That was really great. They weren't overcrowded either. Could generally be a bit cheaper. But apart from that everything was great.

It was a very pleasant experience, the bus proceeded slowly and allowed us to take in all the sights of the city. The very clear audio guide was also excellent.

My son is autistic and they made my son stand in a queue in the cold. No empathy! My son is only 8 years old. It was a horrible experience
