“This is the first time we ever used the hop on & off type bus. Super easy and you get free ear buds with an audio guide. I think you could choose from 8 languages. We probably took the ride 4 times in one day and still learned something new each time. You have to watch as I think there are 3 companies and all of them look like the same bus but just watch for your company and hop on. All the drivers were friendly and helpful.”

“It was a rainy day so the hop on hop off bus was a great option to see the city. If you don’t mind climbing stairs, stop 4 is a must for amazing views of the city. Nice place to eat at the top and then either catch the bus at #3 or take the stairs back down to catch the bus. We actually walked back to our ship from that point. It was a nice walk, even in the rain.”
