Frequently Asked Questions

Open-top sightseeing bus tours travel through a city following defined routes. You can hop on and off the bus at any of the designated stops to explore all that the city has to offer. The stops are strategically located throughout the city and allow you to get around easily and visit the most popular attractions. In addition, there will be a pre-recorded audio guide or guide on board who will share interesting and live information about the city's history, culture and landmarks.
If you are not familiar with a city, we recommend that you choose a complete tour and listen to the audio guides. You can then decide which sights you want to visit, get off for a closer look, and then get back on the bus. You can use the bus as much as you wish during the validity period of the ticket.
Unlike a sightseeing bus tour with open-access stops, passengers are not allowed to get on and off the vehicle for the duration of the tour. Some scenic tours include photo stops, giving you the opportunity to capture the sights before continuing the tour.
Our tours are the most comprehensive way to visit cities, with bus routes planned to pass through key places of interest. Although we do our best to cover all major attractions and landmarks, this is not guaranteed due to the routes stipulated by local traffic authorities. If the route does not take you directly to a particular tourist attraction, the nearest free access stop will be a short walk away.

These tickets are valid for 2 consecutive days.
