Must See @ Night - David should be singing in a broadway show; so much enthusiasm and passion— and most importantly— intonation ✨ 10/10 Also, loved the trivia.

Excellent view - Fun with David, very good view and lighting. Despite being only in English, the view is worth it and you can take good pictures

Great sights, poor customer service from tour company. - The sights on top of the bus were amazing! The tour company needs to work on customer service! The tour kicked off 30 min late. We stood in line in front of the empty bus for an hour. When we asked the driver if we were at the correct boarding spot, she told us to move on up the road because she was on break! Lol They would not allow us to sit down and wait for departure. The staff was rude especially our driver. Every question we had she snapped back. When we asked where the bus was scheduled to stop, she snapped back,”talk to the tip jar!” Quite honestly the most rude person I’ve ever met. Sorry ☹️

Unprofessional Conduct and Poor Audio Quality on Tour - I took the tour at 6:00 PM on September 18, 2025. While the route itself was excellent, the conduct of the tour guide was highly unprofessional and requires immediate attention. On multiple occasions, he shouted at passengers to sit down, doing so in a rude and confrontational manner instead of addressing the situation calmly and professionally. This behavior is not what I would expect from someone representing your company and reflects poorly on your brand. In addition, the sound system was unacceptable. The audio was muffled and distorted to the point that it was difficult to understand and even caused physical discomfort to our ears. This is a serious issue that negatively impacted the overall experience. Both the behavior of your staff and the quality of your equipment need urgent improvement if you want to maintain customer trust and satisfaction.
