They closed the roof too early when we headed back to the Port. Should have had it open and airing out the hot bus that had been sitting in the sun until we left town. It was very uncomfortable in the heat. I did like the ability to do the boat and the bus though.

It's the best way to get to know the city in a very short time, and it also offers excellent commentary and interesting facts.
