Friendly staff, entertaining guides, relaxed getting on and off experience. Good route. Guidance on how to find the right bus (yellow or red, with or without live guide) could have been clearer, both on the website and in the leaflets as on the buses and at bus stops. Distinguishing between red and yellow line could have been clearer on the website. Same for how to book for a second day with a discount.
