Bought online but tickets wouldn't scan when we boarded. Also the bus service was ending more than two hours early which would have only given us the ability to lap the city without utilizing the hop-off part of the tour. That information was not provided online, so there was no value for us.

Fantastic way to see the sights. Easy to find the stops . Not only do you see the sights, but the audio describes the history behind the landmarks.

We had two guides one for each aspect of the tour. Tours we well arranged and all the guides were knowledgeable and engaging

A different kind of tour! Definitely recommended if you want to see a spiritual and serene place out of the city.

Excellent guide and experience, totally recommend! It makes you want to visit all the houses you see :)
