Maps sometimes not as good as they could be.

Our only criticism is that the maps are not always correct! Enjoyed seeing the 'sites' and choosing the next day, which ones we wanted to visit.

Great way to see the main sights of the city. Sometimes you have a long time for space on the bus, particularly on the weekends.

Can't really rate. Family rode the bus once for only 3 stops although I paid for 2 days. I did have a problem with pulling up the tickets so it's best to print off before arriving.

The tour and recorded narration were very helpful. Two tips: it can be challenging to find your bus among the ten different bus tours picking up at the same place, and the explanation about where to plug in your complimentary earbuds is easy to miss. There is a panel in the wall by your seat where you plug in and select your language.
