GBLong wait for buses and poor commentary from guide Having used City Sightseeing in Glasgow, London, Barcelona, Berlin, Munich and Paris we were really looking forward to the NYC tour; sadly we were disappointed. We had two day hop on and off tickets. Day 1 was great we headed downtown with interesting commentary and great views. Day 2 though was a whole different story - we waited over an hour and twenty minutes for an uptown bus tour! When it finally arrived the commentator was obviously not interested and only really spoke when asked direct questions by passengers. Such a disappointment.

GBPoor Value for Money The on board tour guides are hugely inconsistent. Some barely say anything although, when approaching a stop they do talk for a minute or two about how they work for low wages and value tips etc!

USIt is bad buy by internet We bought by internet and they did not send us the ticket. We arrived at the stop bus and lost one hour and taxi going to the office, because the ticket. In the office a one hundred file waiting.. It was horrible. Why they do not send the tickets by internet?

USGood way to see NYC Most of the tour guides were really hard to hear because poor quality equipment and/or poor annunciation. The buses had heaters but were not on for some reason. We were able to see a lot of things that we didn't necessarily want to spend the time actually getting off and going to. Most of the tour guides were not friendly. I would recommend this option as an affordable means of transportation and admittance into attractions.

USWorst tour experience- ever! If you enjoy listening to someone who doesn't speak English- take this tour! If you enjoy someone who doesn't tell you anything about the stops, just says, "here is number 37,38, etc" - take this tour! Completely unacceptable!
