All good, great to see different parts of the city. Commentary was useful but sometimes a little after the place it was talking about.

Pros: The ticketing experience was easy and userfriendly. Boarding the bus was also very easy. No stress. Bus was nice and clean. Seats were good. Audio guide was very clear. Cons: bus did not stop at each stoppage on its own. One had to look at the map and ask for it. For a tourist coming to Cambridge for the first time, it was a bit confusing .
