We loved getting on and off the bus to see the sights we really wanted to. Also going on both the blue and red tour buses were great as they covered different areas and so covered a lot more area. We also learned a lot about the history of the town.Andre

The staff were absolutely friendly and helpful. Unfortunately we couldn't take the red line as there were hardly any buses on the road (at least we never saw one, only for the blue route)Michael

Although we paid the full price, the red line bus did not go to the lighthouse. We also had to wait 45 minutes for the bus
