This was a very nice tour of Hamburg. We got to see many interesting areas of the city, which is why we typically enjoy a Hop On Hop Off experience on our first day in a new city. The recorded audio tour commentary was well done and included interesting anecdotes about the city, culture and population. Our only suggestions are1. to get better descriptions of the exact locations of the stops (we had trouble finding the correct location - but saw the bus and were able to catch it!) and 2. to figure out a way to insure that the audio track synchs with the bus position.

The friendly and competent tour before and inside the Elbphilharmonie. There was a lot of information about the Elbphilharmonie, the Speicherstadt, facts and figures. Simply everything was perfect. Questions were also answered very well and there was no unanswered question.
