Excellent, would highly recommend this activity. The driver was very courteous and caring, took the time to help my elderly father in law in and out of the carriage, took some lovely photos of us all and pointed out all the historical places of interest. A great 30 minutes

5 out of 5 stars

When your for a short stay in a big city this is perfect, the only negative point to me was the time you have to wait. For some lines there was only one bus in one hour.

5 out of 5 stars

There was a large collection and I enjoyed it for 3 hours. There were paintings and bronze statues that I had seen in textbooks, and I enjoyed studying the paintings.
