    The Hop on Hop off bus is an excellent way to see Tokyo. I felt the commentary could have been a little more informative and it would be helpful if the music stopped whilst the commentary is in progress. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience.

    After the Tokyo Hop on Hop off where you could see a great deal of the interesting aspects of the city without getting off, Kyoto was mostly a venue for getting to places rather than seeing aspects of the city. Staff were excellent.

    the trip was very superficial as there is a lot to see in Kyoto so it was not really usefull to really visit that city

    Bus was on time and the two lines blue and red make it a much more attractive proposition
