Friendly staff, predictable schedule, WiFi on the bus was extremely helpful (I'm out of town). Would've liked more than a second passing the Palace, but understand that traffic was moving. Thank you!

We took the same tour twice. The 2nd bus took a different route and we weren't able to hop off at the stop we wanted. Disappointing

The hop on hop off bus tour guides, Lion and Jocelyn, were excellent. Both were entertaining, and both knowledgeable of the history of Madrid/Spain.

Ticketing was easy. Why not use the same booking Q code when getting on/off instead of the paper ticket which can get lost? The speakers were all good - wish it wasn't so loud though. And I would have loved more history and info
