It is what it says….goes to all of the key sites. Tour guides vary, one was way corny, the other very informative

Loved the fun narrating by our tour guide. Drive was smooth on the bus. Would recommend or book it again.

My daughter and I decided to ride the bus for an overall review of the city. We hoped on and off a few times and had multiple guides. The team of Chris and Sebastian were by far the BEST. Their hospitality, knowledge of the city, clear communication and sense of humor made for a memorable day. We actually stayed on the loop longer than planned because we were enjoying our time so much.

The Big Bus took us to all the stops we wanted to see. Drivers and Narrators were great. The buses we’re also on time

Difficult to navigate what bus & where. We did a lot of extra walking after purchasing tickets. Almost missed, by the time we found the right place we couldn’t get off or look around anywhere. Tour guide was knowledgeable and bus driver, Tom, was super friendly. If you are ‘more’ mobile, you probably will not be as frustrated as I was trying to walk around to find them. There are diff companies; they work together but ticket redemption needs to happen at the right place. Overall, it was a decent value, just frustrating.

I was a little concerned by some of the reviews, but booked anyways, and I’m so glad I did! Our guides were terrific, the buses were comfortable and we learned so much about the city. I’ve been to Philadelphia a number of times for work, but the tour exposed me to lots of sights that I was unaware of. There was a man on the bus that needed the translation audio and that wasn’t working properly. He got frustrated and left the tour. So, scan the reviews if you aren’t English speaking so you can see if that’s a common issue. Otherwise, I highly recommend the tour!

We really enjoyed our time on the Big Bus Hop-on Hop-off tour. We got to see everything that was on our to-do list without having to drive around ourselves. Also enjoyed hearing all about Philadelphia history while seeing the sites.

It was great though it was raining we were still able to enjoy the view from the bus. The tour guide was great . We all have a great time. We just wish we were able to get off take some pics.

We did the double decker hop on hop off bus tour on Saturday March 1st. We rode the Big B bus. Tom was at the bus stop selling tickets. He was knowledgeable and not pushy at all. When we got on the bus Ruth was the tour guide. She was entertaining and definitely knows her Philly history. She made the bus tour interesting and fun! We loved it so much we got on for a second ride. Darryl the driver was professional and courteous. Will definitely take this tour again when we are back in Philly and hope Ruth is the tour guide again!
