The tours through the city are very good. However, we had to wait about 1.5 hours in the morning for the next bus. That was very annoying. We didn't get on at the main point, but at boarding point 6 on the red line. The audio guide did not work on the blue line. The music in the background was so loud that you couldn't understand the speaker. In general, I found the background music very loud. If you turned it down, you always missed the guide's announcements and then had to frantically turn it up again. I found this annoying. On the red and green lines, the music was off when the guide was speaking. That was better. We were also annoyed by the long wait at the stop where the cruise ship guests boarded. The time here could also be used to provide the seated and waiting guests with information about the city and the country. This would make the waiting time worthwhile. Best regards Brigitte

The information from the audio guide was very little, no indication where the building is located which is then described. The times on the tour schedule do not match the actual times, there was no bus at 19:30 even though it was in the app.

Unfortunately, the ticket did not match the lines I had called and to which then came their offer. waiting 90 minutes at the blue line station 10 or 12 and there was no bus (from 9.30-11 clock) my vacation day half wasted. Never again online.

We couldn't use a single bus. It was difficult to find the bus stops. Also, the buses didn't run because of the power cut in Portugal. I would appreciate a refund. Yours sincerely, Gisela Schiffel

The audio guide could announce each stop and provide information about what is interesting to see at that stop. Overall, the information was very poor. There is certainly more to say about Lisbon than the little that the audio guide provided.

I took advantage of the Red Line and the Green Line. Very extensive sightseeing, many stops. The roads are a little bumpy, but the drivers drive a little too fast in some places and you can't take pictures.

We've done 4 hop on off tours on our cruise...we waited at stop #3 in city tour , blue line , walked 20 min to stop for Barcelona hop on off for 47 min...1 bus came thru w 2 seats available...40 people in line And the Barcelona bus tourisa came by 5 times w room for many. We were so disappointed that we bought more tics on that tour line. We're doing Florence tomorrow & have paid for tics as well. We'd should get a credit as never even stopped on the bus unfortunately. Thank you. Cwa0202@gmail.com

I liked: the songs (fados); Disliked: - the descriptions of the places out of time (untimely) without coherence with what was being seen. I spent Saturday (the day I used the walcher) from 5pm to 7.15pm waiting for the bus at sao jorge castle and it didn't come. I had to go back in an app car. LAMENTABLE.
