Ticketing was done online. We just showed our paper ticket and hopped right on the bus. We loved seeing and hearing (don't forget to take earphones that are free) places on the bus. Very easy to get off and get back on.Luis

I liked the experience of being able to get off when you wanted to see something and get back on when done. Although the app was not updated due to the closed streets and alternative stops were not expressed anywhere.Alicia
