Just fantastic, take your time, it’s hot in Lisbon in the summer, bring a hat, water and suntan lotion - It’s was a great experience! Lots of busses and plenty of room, employees are super nice. Would do it again

Plan before going - What was great about the bus tour was how thorough it was. The tour went through so many of the different neighborhoods and we could easily see how Lisbon has 3 million people. It’s not just about old town. However, my one serious critique was the lack of communication when we wanted to know how to access the boat. It wasn’t clear and our first bus driver had no interest in helping us out. We thought we were able to get off at Belém-Maat and so we did but we would have had to wait almost 3 hours for the boat. There was a much better option but we didn’t know that. We ultimately figured it out, somewhat by chance, and really enjoyed the cruise on the water. Overall, it was a lovely day but we felt it lacked some clarity. On the buses there is not someone to help guide or even necessarily how to get off. But the comfort and the length of tour is excellent.

Very good ride - Good visit that allowed us not only to contemplate the beauty and architecture of this beautiful European city but also to learn its history

Bad service - They advised us wrong. The second day was a national holiday, April 25, and we were not warned that half the lines would work and malfunction and that they left from another street (we lost more than half an hour). They didn't even know it at all the information points.

Good First day Orientaion - The YellowBus was quite good. Very good descriptions of sites. There are 2 routes plus the Yellow Boat tour. It is great for the first day orientation. The main Pickup point is right in the center of the Old City. I would recommend a 24 hour pass. The stops are somewhat difficult to locate if you decide to hop off, visit a museum then walk to the nest stop. The stops are far apart and hard to locate. The Lisboa Card offers more flexibility plus free entrance to many museums and travel on all public transport, Free commuter train trip to Sintra, is a must see. However no guided descriptions of sites.

Just a "so-so" experience. - During the bus tour, the driver and the male talked nonstop! Never offered nor could I locate earphones. We sped by all but 1 stop and only slowed down enough to pick up a rider. The bus itself was modern and clean. The boat tour was fine. Older, but fine. Because it had rained before our tour started the outside seating was wet. There was no effort by staff to wipe the area of water or the black oily exhaust deposits from the disel exhaust. That said. I have beautiful pictures of the places I had interest in seeing from the water- so I am happy!

Ok - Thought paid for bus boat and tram tours for 2 days ended up paying another 9 euros each for tram tours. Boat late going and coming back. Bus the only positive of your.

Shame the Driver, Not Pro - Overall well, the hearing aids are good and so are the explanations. What is noteworthy is that the driver who touched us on Wednesday, October 16 at 9:00 was totally disrespectful, got confused in person and started challenging us... totally inappropriate, should be talked to with the customer, ruined our day

Viator was less than... - Viator was less than helpful when attempting to switch my day for the ride. Initially I was told it was sold out for the day I wanted to switch to, then I was told that my only course of action was that viator could attempt to reach out to the tour operator to see if they would allow the switch. I was also told that if viator did this, there was guarantee I would get a response. Additionally I contacted the tour operator through the viator app to request a switch. This was around 11am… in the app it noted that I should receive a quick reply… I did not receive any reply until after 3pm… the bus stops running at 5:30.. so my family and I lost an entire day.. including the boat ride which we planned to take on the Monday I wanted to switch to since they only offer the ride on Mon, Wednesday and Friday..we had an all day excursion planned for Wednesday and leave from Lisbon on Friday. A side note.. when the tour operator responded back.. they let me know it wasn’t a problem to switch and apologized for the delay.. but the apology fails to make up for the day we lost.
