Very enjoyable tour! - We enjoyed our tour on land but even the one hour boat tour that came with it! Has busy as it was, buses should have been more frequent; but overall very enjoyable tour!

Enjoyed in spite of rain. - Very interesting tour marred by a rainy, rainy day. This was the best way to see Kiel on such a day. Ride around, learn about the city, and stay dry. Interesting note - when the narrator says that after WWII stylistic elements were removed, I’m thinking the swastikas were sandblasted out of existence.

Not recommendable - Very disappointing. Dirty buses, and 2 of the stops were not served due to Kiel Week without prior information.

Superfluous - So boring 🥱 can't be recommended 🥱 The window pane is covered with advertising Once and never again, totally unnecessary 40€ for two too expensive. Almost everyone fell asleep on the bus

Don't do it! - Terrible tour. Not worth the money. Bus is run down, too hot, not air-conditioned and barely any windows. Not quite touristic!! Would sure not do it again!

Worst hop on hop off service I have ever used. - The worst hop on hop off bus, I waited over 2 hours for a bus that wasn’t full, once onboard the information for hearing about the trip was not available on the seat I sat on , I have given one star as couldn’t leave no stars. Would not recommend this service

We are not - Little information on the site and the place, unclear stops and driver who only spoke German. Buses that pass infrequently. On the site it is not written that one of the stops is no longer made and, on the contrary, there is a stop that is not reported either on the site or on the sheet given on the bus. The stops are too few compared to what there is to see. I don't recommend it. Value for money: we're not there. 80% of the time the driving consists of soporific music.

Scammers, don't buy it! - Only one bus, even though there were still plenty of seats, didn't let us on, saying that a bus would arrive in 10 minutes... and we've been here for 90. Don't be fooled, get around on foot or by taxi. Scammers!!

Driver not very good or informative - The driver said he would make announcements at the stops but never did. Didn't know where we were. Once I got off I had to find my way around.

Worst Hop-on Hop-off ever. SAVE YOUR MONEY - This was supposed to be a hop-on hop-off with seven stops. The driver picks us up at the port and made 1 stop. There was nothing there and then he drove us back to the port, and told us to get off.
