Good easy way to get perspective and locations to go back to
The bus is a great way to get an overview of some of the major attractions of Kyoto and get around. The staff was very friendly. The audio narration could use work; the description of each location would cut off mid-sentence as we got close and switch to an announcement that it was on our right side, etc. So use this as an overview and don't expect a thorough history of any of the sites.
