It was good. Pickup at different stops not very clear but if you start and end at meeting point then it’s fine. Didn’t feel the need to get off at any stop. 1-day is more than enough if you do it from start to finish. Using the second day or the bus as any transportation needs is not really ideal.

We took the day pass and the drive to Villefranche is worth the price of the bus. Incredible driver, helpful and polite and very generous with the explanations and people he greeted. We sat up (watch the branches!) and left hand side is best for views.

Very relaxed and affordable means to cover a lot of ground in a beautiful city and gain a summary understanding of the culture and architecture.
