Great way to understand the city , neighbourhoods and landmarks.
Dhiljik was a great driver with tips on what to see in locations.
Blue line: avoid on a Saturday afternoon.. expect at least an additional 90 minutes due to traffic congestion
Trip is perfect if queuing is improved
No one is queuing up in the station. Big bus staff is not able to manage the situation, when a bus come, everyone fight for getting onto the bus, it is a mess in the busy stop. It spoiled the mood of travel in the day:(
No Hop Off
Paris
Not responsive enough to be useful
BigBus London. App is fine for route planning, but real time bus info is useless. Ended up having to switch to public transportation, making the fee for BigBus a complete waste of money.
Awesome Experience
Big Bus made it soooo easy to tour different places in Dublin and we were never disappointed! I love the fact that they even had WiFi on the bus because it allowed us to prepare for the next portion of our vacation without having to spend money on a SIM card or international plan for data. I’d definitely recommend their tours.
Not Intuitive in San Francisco
The app is not particularly intuitive. It was hard to see the sight markers because the bus icons were in the way. The maps that the bus driver handed out could have a little more information. The driver passed the first stop before everyone could figure out what was happening. Several on the bus had wanted the first stop. The audio took 4 stops to sink up with the where the bus was. Also 90 degrees and no air conditioning. 🥵
London
No a/c. WiFi didn’t work 4 hours into the tour around London. Drivers were nice. London was packed. Drivers were amazing with all the traffic
Service is not good
Paid $60 per ticket for hop in and hop out service. They took 1 hr 20 mins to just reach 5th stop. By the time I reach, I have already crossed my reservation time.
Paris Olympics
I was disappointed the bus did not take us to view the Olympics key sites.
App Does Not Show Bus Stop Closures
We were waiting at a stop for around an hour but a bus never came. After getting in contact with support, they informed us that there was a closure for the next few bus stops. We would have never known that unless I contacted the company and the app never informed us of this. I was disappointed because many stops were closed and the route was different, but they made up for it with another free day of the tour (which is why I only took off one star). The app should inform the customer when stop closures are happening so they don’t waste their time waiting for a bus. Anyone booking with them should know this prior and that contacting the support team is the only way to confirm this. Otherwise a perfect experience.
