The pass was invaluable in saving time by avoiding the long queues, even in October. Not all the places one might like are included, but the range is good and it is certainly possible also to save some money on entrance fees.

We loved this tour. We went for the 3 day pass with Batobus and used it on each day including the whole distance of 3 out of 4 of the bus routes and the Batobus - so excellent value for money. It got us to where we were going, saved our legs and a lot of hassle getting around. On top of which (literally) we got great views from the upper deck and have some fantastic photos and video. The Batobus was fantastic. You could while away the time inside in the warm with beautiful views or outside on the small deck - again we got fantastic shots of the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Louvre and unusual shots passing under all those bridges. If you haven't been to Paris before it is a great way to see a lot in a short time. My only gripes are that the stops aren't that easy to find and when we presented our vouchers to the driver on our first day he said we should have exchanged them for tickets at the main office which was miles from where we were at Montparnasse. However he was very helpful and exchanged them anyway.

Suggest bundling your New York pass with a New York in a nutshell or similar tour to give you an introduction to the city. To get the best value, plan your activities ahead so that you are not deciding at the last minute. Bundle up with a Hop On Hop Off bus pass.

For my trip in Paris, I enjoyed the Paris Comprehensive Hop-On, Hop-Off Tour. This is a tourist tour composed by 4 different circuits in Paris. All off then are really nice and share stops, and it is possible to visit the most representative monuments and streets of the main city in France. Besides, circuits share stops, so you can change among them. It is strongly reccomended for a short visit.

Took the 2 day option and it proved very useful for my general orientation of Las Palmas. Buses ran frequently and there was never too long to wait for the next one. Did a complete circuit first off and then picked which sights I was most interested in.
