The buses that played the recorded script were lame. The drivers that actually spoke were much better. We were told that the last bus through Stanley Park was at 5:30 pm. The last bus was actually around 4:00 pm so we had to take a taxi back to our hotel. It is convenient to get from point A to point B, but you get very little information about Vancouver.

Great way to see the city. Drivers were friendly and informative.

The tour around was at a pace that not give a good view of sights on the route, not ideal for photo shots on the blue bus with plastic windows, red trolley bus is better choice with good viewing windows.

It takes a long to get around the whole trip and traffic was dreadful.

We arrived on a repositioning 1 night cruise with a major cruise line from Seattle. The bus picked us up at the terminal on it's normal stop. We toured most of the city. A must see is Granville Public Market. The view across the water and the marina is awesome. Every kind of food is available and it is a great place for people watching. We picked up from there on the bus that comes by every 15 minutes and got off in China Town which was close to the Pacific Central train station to return to Seattle. A remarkably pleasant day, with a summarized tour of Vancouver.

It was a long day trip by coach/ferry to Victoria. I would look into other options in the future, for a day trip.

This is a really good way to see Vancouver especially if you have limited time. However, the buses we had weren't particularly comfortable but not sure if these are the ones usually used as the day after we saw better buses being used._br/_ We were disappointed to have to wait about 30 mins for a bus at one point which put us off getting off again in case it was a long wait for the next bus! On a couple of occasions, we would wait and then 2 buses would arrive together. Delays were caused by bad traffic not their fault! and by people paying as they got on. On one stop 4 ladies got on - they all wanted to pay individually in cash and the driver didn't have change. That meant we were waiting around 10 minutes for them to sort it all out! I would suggest not being able to pay on the door but only by pre-paid ticket or voucher which would speed things up for people already on the bus.

Great way to get around the city. Inconsistencies in the comfort of the bus, the audio and the level of expertise of the drivers.

Sound system needs upgraded

Even though it was raining the company provided a canopy to enable everyone to keep dry unlike some other companies worldwide. The ticket was for 24 hours so enabled us to use it the next day up until expiry which was a bonus and a bonus ferry ride to Granville market was useful. All in all excellent value.

It was okay, I felt sorry for the people that was not pickup because of full buses. The driver keeping talking its almost his lunch hour. We had a 2 day Hop on but was not able to do the 2nd day because of rain and cold.

Hope on and off tour is very straight forward and gives you a good overview of the areas that you might want to invest time in during your visit...

We really enjoyed this tour. It brought us to places that our feet could not take us in a day for sure. We got off at the Granville Market and Gastown to name a few. The driver was great, the narrative very interesting. Price was good thru Viator. We always enjoy taking Hop On and Off Tours when visiting places for the first time. You get to see what you otherwise would not have time to see or see things you would like to go back too. So its a good tour to take upfront on your vacation.
