Very informative commentary BUT would have been easier to follow if each stop was announced by the numbers on your map. The drivers were very nice and helpful

My tour was awesome...but a lot of major communications on head out end. If a company works on the assumption that not everybody KNOWS where a place is..and gives real good directions...its a far better and less frustrating experience for users. Try it!!! You couldn't possibly do a worse job than the lack of directions I got. Good luck

We loved all the historic sites and we didn't need to watch where we were going in the bus. Nice information on the different parts of the city.

We loved Everything! Well organized. Point of improvement: we were not aware (or maybe missed) about the fact earphones were lying in the bus. It is nice to communicate a list of "nice to know/ practical info" immediately after the online purchase of tickets.
