    Beautiful ride in a beautiful city

    The hop on hop off tour of Amsterdam was a brilliant introduction to a wonderful city. We did the whole tour before deciding which attractions to visit. The bus was comfortable and the Perspex roof was ideal on aclear but breezy day.

    We enjoyed the tour as it gives us a good look at the City before we set out on foot to look at the places that interest us. The Hop on and Hop off concept is brilliant.
