It is a useful way to get to the main attractions durino the whole day. I suggest that a complete and fixed timetable should be given to the tourists together with the map at the beginning, so they can know what time is the bus at each stop, to lower prices and to offer a 1, 2,3 or 4 days and not only 1 or 2. Thanks

It was as expected from a hop on hop off. Wish it was more packed with historical information and fun facts as there were times when music played for a long time and info was mostly about buildings, monuments and construction. For example, I really enjoyed learning about city’s intentional effort to create a green zone by moving major thoroughfares underground. More info like that! However, I recommend and would do a hop on hop off anywhere I go, as it gives an overview of a place.

I always think the Hop-on-hop-off bus is a great way to see the best bits of the city in a short space of time. The tour would have been better if there was more information given on the commentary rather than a lot of music. Sometimes the commentary did not ‘match’ up with where we were so it was difficult to see and understand what was being described. It was a great way to escape the rain on a very wet day in Madrid!
