I find it the best way to discover a city and its history. You can hop on and off whenever you feel like it, enjoying the neighborhoods and getting lost in the streets you like.

The guide inside the cathedral was very good. She was able to fill the waiting time needed to enter the cathedral with information about the monument and the historical context. As far as the bus is concerned, the tour allows you to enjoy views of the city and get to know the exteriors.

I'm sorry I didn't ride HOHO tour at Florence due to the rain. Therefore, I couldn't provide a rating. However, I would like to request a refund due to a duplicate payment. I bought 2 tickets on October 24, 2025 for October 30th ride but it didn't show on the Headout app. I had to buy it again on October 29th, 2025 in order to use it on October 30th. Please let me know how to submit a refund request. Thank you

We waited one hour at Serristori for Bus B two days ago. There was none although on the time table on place. The other day we took notice that there is only one Bus every two hours instead of every hour as announced. Why no notice of that on the stops or in the internet? Very annoying!

It's so easy to see all the sights and to be able to hop off when you want to see more. We went up into a small village in the mountains had lunch and a wander round before getting the bus back to Florence it was magical the views were amazing!

    There are 2 lines. The 1 has frequent busses, and the other not. I was aware of it before hand, so we made sure that we knew exactly where and when the bus would stop. Unfortunately it was quite crowded at the bus stop, and the driver stopped without opening the doors. We waved our arms, and tried to get their attention. But they just rode off. So we could only use 50% of our ticket. That was disappointing.

    The hop on hop off bus tour route B (red route) was too infrequent we waited 1.5 hours for the bus to arrive. We arrived at the bus stop for 12.30. The timetable at the bus stop said there would be a bus at 13.05 but it didn't arrive. The next bus arrived at 14.05. The app was unclear about the location of the buses and what time they were due toarrive. The cathedral tour was very good
