A comprehensive tour of the city without walking. On the other hand, you hardly see any of the city's beautiful buildings. Too much focus on the outside

The opportunity to see a lot of the city in a short time. What a disaster: !!!! The employee in the office of her company. No idea and no interest in our request. We had to go to the city information office and they helped us and gave us quick and easy access to their buses.

Good tour but bus times at the stops should be advertised on the App after booking. We just missed two buses because the times were only advertised AT the bus stops.

It was an unexpected highlight of our time in Florence. The Douma was booked out and it was a free museum day, so the lines were very long. We happened upon the hop on hop off bus tour and decided that would allow us to see more of the city. The views from Piazzale Michelangelo were amazing and we would've missed it if we hadn't taken the bus tour!

It would have been good if it had been announced at the terminus when the bus would start again. This took half an hour, during which you could have got off and used the time. This was only possible on request.

We had some uncertainty with finding an actual "Hop on, Hop off" stop within the city of Florence. It would be great if the confirmation email after purchase used the customer's location to identify where the nearest stop might be. It is difficult in Florence, as many head for the Duomo/Santa Maria Novella piazza area, but there are no stops in that area. Once we did find a stop, the tour was great and showed us parts of Florence that took us away from the throngs i.e. Fiesole.

I was in Florence on another excuywhich left me 3 hours if free time. I chose the hop on/off bus to be able to see more of Florence. I gave it a good rating because the bus stop I needed to get on was difficult to find. Lucky for me the number you call for customer service got me to the spot. The man in the phone was fabulous. Without him, I may not have found the stop.

It was a good experience. Lots of people. No one was at the stop 10 to line people up. It was a holiday and so many people and people were trying to get in front of other people.
