very nice way to see all of Edinburgh, especially at our age. You can get off and on as you please and you see many sites. Bus was nice and clean and people driving friendly.

This is a great way to learn about the city, hear about the architecture and history and see what you want to see at your own pace.

Was very helpful for us as we only had 8 hours in the town. The only thing we did not like is that the recording or the driver never told you what stop you were at so it made it hard to get off at the correct stop.

The tour gave a nice overview of the city and the city's history. But I wasn't super engaged with the information. Not that interesting.

Well narrated, easy going way to see the city and learn about the rich heritage and history of Edinburgh. Recommended for first time visitors and even returning friends of Scotland.

Great! It was a good orientation to a city we have never to before! Followed through the next few days by going to places we saw from the bus. Would highly recommend this tour to newcommers to Edinburgh. The other Viator tours for Edinburgh look interesting as well, we’ll have to try them too.

I thought the tour was a little disjointed but they may have had something to do with the dreadful weather!!

Great value! We hopped on this our first day in Edinburgh, after a flight from SFO, before sleeping! It was great to see an overview of the city before going to bed!

It is a time saver if you don't have enough time to explore the city. _br/_ Not quite worth the money and a little boring.
 

Review by:   Glenn C,    January 2018 Review: 5 star rating: Highly Recommended
Wow, so easy to jump on and off and see all the sights. I really enjoyed this hop on hop off as it was a smaller city and i was able to get to jump off a few times to see the sights.

Rental car had a flat and then needed a new tyre, and we had to go out of Edinburugh the day we had booked this tour so we did not get to go on the tour so it was a waste of money.

A great and cost effective way to get a great overview of the old city in an hour or so and then go back around and explore in more detail what caught your interest. Each buss guide had a little story on the same place.

Suprisingly busy tour. Thorough and a good window into Edinburgh. We used this as a starting point to do those things we wished in an abbreviated time frame. Recommended
 

Review by:   John H,    December 2017 Review: 4 star rating: Recommended
It's a bus tour, pretty standard. All the buses were clean and came along pretty regularly. Occasionally got held up if lots of people wanted to buy tickets at one stop. Covered the whole city pretty well. Worth the fare

Every major city needs to have have a hop-on hop off tour to get the full view of the city.

excellent way of seeing the city, especially if not able to walk far or weather bad.

This was great, plenty of stops throughout the city, it was very busy as it was during the festival.

Ever since I took a similar hop-on hop-off tour in Dublin, I almost always look for something similar. Book this early in your time in Edinburgh. This tour had plenty of stops to get on and off, but I recommend doing at a full loop at first, to get the lay of the land. If the weather's nice, go for the back of the upper deck and get some great pictures.

A great way to see Edinburgh. It was a bit chaotic at the first stop as many people trying to board but otherwise excellent.

We only had an afternoon in Edinburgh so using the hopon hopoff bus was brilliant as we saw so much in a short time making us wanting more so we are already planning a return trip next year

Wonderful way to find your way around Edinburgh! Highly recommend for first couple of days since the city has so many hills. My only complaint would be the lack of information on where to start the tour. My husband and I wasted almost an hour trying to find the pick up location. It is very vague.
 

Review by:   Cheryl R,    October 2017 Review: 5 star rating: Highly Recommended
We stayed on the bus for two trips around! The city is amazing and we enjoyed mile. It was nice to hop on and off at different stops and be picked up by another bus making the rounds. _br/_ We'd do it again!
 

Review by:   Herman R,    October 2017 Review: 5 star rating: Highly Recommended
We bought the 3 bus tour package. Unfortunately we only had time for 2 of the tours but they were great fun. Try to find the bus with Mark as your guide he is fantastic!_br/_ The buses ran often and there was always a representative avalible for information. Very well run._br/_ I would certainly use this again and highly reccommend it.

Review by:   Helen P,    October 2017 Review: 1 star rating: I do not recommend this
We were EXTREMELY disappointed with this Hop On Hop Off Tour. Instead of being allowed to ride the entire circuit BEFORE deciding which sight to get off to see, we were told to get off at the end of the line, get on another bus, as the one we were on as well as the guides were going off duty. They were more interested in getting off duty than providing information re Dublin. We felt our entire 2 days were spent waiting on, getting on/off buses without getting an opportunity to see/experience Dublin. There were 8 of us in our group - NO one was pleased with this tour at all.

Good tour to get a view of the entire city, but commentary was less than enlightening.
 

Review by:   Pcorson,    October 2017 Review: 4 star rating: Recommended
The bus took 45 minutes to do the whole circuit. This gave us a opportunity to choose were we would won't to spend more time. The buses came every ten minutes and the drivers were very helpful.

Nice way to see the city highlights, but if you want to visit the sites you do not have enough time to get to a lot of places.
