Bus was dirty. I spent $75 for ticket and no one ever asked to see ticket or ocr code. I could have gone without paying which makes me wonder how many did.

The sightseeing tour by bus was great, and especially the view from the Sky View. I paid less than 50 euros for both, which is great by American standards.
