We didn't get a seat until the fourth bus. The audio guide wasn't very engaging. One narrator spoke very quickly and monotonously, while the other had a very pleasant voice and spoke at a good pace. The tour was very informative!

I expected more information on the audio guide. Was much less than other hop on/offs. More background music than guide information.

As usual, the audio wasn't well synchronized. It was better on the red bus, but on the BigBus it was sparse and poor.
