Customer Reviews
Well worth doing as it makes it easy to locate and see the attractions that you want to see....
I seem to have a 'thing' about doing the hop-on-hop-off tours around the world - and yet again this one did not dissappoint. The commentry throughout the journey was excellent...
Great way to see the City; kids loved it too.
We were very happy with the whole experience. The trip was excellent. We were only a small group and everyone got along well. Our guide was really enthusiastic and informative...
We were very happy with the whole experience. The trip was excellent. We were only a small group and everyone got along well. Our guide was really enthusiastic and informative...
We managed to fit in all 3 tours: Royal Yacht, Edinburgh Castle and Palace of Hollyrood. The busses were frequent and did everything we expected. Shame the last bus was 5...
No issues, easy process to purchase tickets
This was very good value and there were other discounts for other venues.
