Ticketing was done online. We just showed our paper ticket and hopped right on the bus. We loved seeing and hearing (don't forget to take earphones that are free) places on the bus. Very easy to get off and get back on.
The audio part was great. Very upbeat and informative. We always got a seat up top - it wasn't overcrowded. The ticketing process was easy. The stops were selected to give us access to many interesting locations near the stops. The men working at and on the buses were very polite and helpful. We would definitely do it again.
I thought the audio was informative but it was out of sync on our first ride and we missed our exit for the statue of liberty. Also it was raining and I saw that other hoping hopoff providers provided rain ponchos. I did not realize that there were two other providers, top view and gray line. This caused quite a bit of confusion. Using the receipt as proof of ticket was not optimal as, with the rain, it became a wet mess and the driver did not want to accept my mobile receipt after our first ride, they wanted to see the paper receipt which had became unusable. There appeared to be no way to replace it.
The crew on our bus were very willing to help us find a lost item (a tiny diamond necklace) long after we had left the bus (it came back around twice) and they very graciously looked all over for it, and it was even eventually found! Thanks to the crew for going above and beyond.
I enjoyed the history provided; however, it was not easy to get to a stop. There were not as many stops as I had expected.
Hop on, hop off is very useful as you can plan your day and go to NYC's landmark or whatever order you want to visit first.
Quick view on the town, nice the concept up and go. In real, it's difficult to use it to visit something in the same time. Very great if the weather is beautiful
Helpful, friendly staff. Informative information. Especially grateful for the kindness and regard given to my mom, 85 years old.
The line for the bus at Times Square was excessively long. Had to walk to another stop to even get on. Workers at the Times Square location were then seen allowing people to cut in line ahead of waiting paid customers. UNSAT.
Yo much traffic The day was very hot The drivers were good
The staff and the audio were awesome. All the buses that we were on had NO A/C in the lower floor of the bus.
Audio guide was great. Ability to hop off & on was convenient.
Great route; easy to find the stops when you hop off and hop back on!

14 intestins stops of Manhattan, I love it!
It was very informative. Guides were very helpful, but I was disappointed in the number of stops.
Glad the bus had plastic rain covers. We got poured on.
The line was way too long and it took an exceedingly long time for the next bus to arrive
The tour was fine but having booked from Italy I had trouble converting the ticket
View original review in Italian
Unfortunately our experience was pretty bad: first day, it said 1 of the tickets has been submitted without even use them. The second day on the 1st stop at Time Square we were waiting for over 40 min and couldn't get on the bus' cause they have to leave " empty seats " for next stops. Manager on site was very rude. We left and almost were late for our next visit. When we finally got a bus it broke and no one told us so until 20 min later and waiting under the sun at almost 97 degrees. I do not recommend it to anybody.
It was awful- 48 hour ticket. Day 1 had to change bus on 3 different occasions, the drivers were not helpful and the buses were stifling with the heat as there was no AC. Day 2 no better, heat in the bus was so bad I thought I might pass out. Everybody was struggling with the heat in the bus. The buses need replacing and they should have aircon
Bus audio didn't work on multiple buses.
Busses were way to rare for uptown NYC and there was no audio for Uptown. That is not a tour. I can have a can drive me around the park way cheaper and faster if I'm not getting audio. We waited 90m for our morning Uptown bus. Direction on site way too confusing - which stops actually pickup at which times. App was terrible. Downtown audio was fine and stops well planned.
Nice experience seen a lot of New York. Buses run very frequently and if you sit on top of the bus you have a nice view. We were in the winter so a warm coat is necessary

It was amazing. I was able to see all the attractions I wanted and had a seamless experience with getting checked in.
We had a great time. Eat before you go in. Cafe is pricy. Plan on being there at opening to have ample time and avoid a crowd for an hour or two. Sooooo much to see so plan a second visit and wear comfy shoes.
It was a beautiful place and all the staff were very pleasant and helped us when lost or in need of directions. Its a very informative place and would definitely recommend.
The system is simple and generates clear indications to the user. All the activities were impeccable. Good group guides, knowledgeable and empathetic.

The experience wasn't good. The tickets couldn't be pulled up and they couldn't scan them and it was very frustrating. Eventually we got it figured out but it took a ton of time.
wonderful view of the city with all its lights from a unique point of view compared to other skyscrapers avoided the queue thanks to the tickets purchased in advance
Wonderful customer service & however, buses cleaning should be increased!!
I had very bad issue with bus driver. He did not allow me to take ride on bus even i was there in line with my family. He pushed my wife to get into bus so hard that it hurt her. My daughter was crying with his loud yelling. It was totally discrimination from driver with another passenger. He openly said "i will not let you take ride in my bus but take another next bus." I am not going to tolrate this kind of behaviour. Will definately go next step for this.
It was so easy to use, you literally just find the attractions you want to see and head to the entrance with your QR code ticket pass. Even those where you have to book, the experience was easy to complete through the app. Will recommend.
Such a great experience and hassle free. Combination tickets saves time and money.
It was an amazing experienced.Thank you very much

Ivan (Driver) and Shelley (Tour Guide) were awesome! Ivan did his best to slow down where he could so we could get as many pictures as we could. Shelley was so fun and incredibly thorough with information about the City and Borroughs. This was a highlight of our trip and I highly suggest taking this tour! It would be a great tour to do at the beginning of your trip, too!!
We had a very nice tour of the city on the bus, the tourist attractions were very well indicated and our guide Dwayne was really nice and entertaining.

"Riding the Big Bus in New York City was an absolute delight! From the moment I stepped aboard, I was treated to unparalleled views of the city's iconic landmarks, including the Empire State Building, Times Square. The convenience of the route combined with the comfortable seating made for an unforgettable sightseeing experience. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a seasoned New Yorker, the Big Bus tour is a must-do for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the vibrant energy of the Big Apple." Also the staff were so friendly and up beat!
Shelley our tour guide was amazing. Super friendly and informative !!!
Jenn's passion for what she does is infectious. Best decision I made in NYC!
I have COVID and I was unable to take the tour. I tried contact associate or agentes but I was disconnected every 15 minutes

This visit was like Waw experience for me and my siblings. I have never felt like that in my life and you can never find the food and drinks anywhere else I promise you. The customer service was thrilling. Overall we felt like kings 👑 my brothers are still overwhelmingly grateful for the memory we had out there yesterday.
The views of NYC: The Chrysler building, MetLife, Pepsi Cola, WTC... incredible! Also the metallic balloons room is amazing, we felt like kids again. The top roof bar drinks, Almond croissant and ambiance are tops.
We were behind a bit in time of our booking and panicked arriving! But the staff on entrance were so obliging to help my family get to gain the amazing experiencebof the edge! Would highly recommend it for all to do..
The place is amazing in every way – the view, the lookout point, the feeling, and the glass floor all come together to make the experience especially powerful.
It was an amazing experience—even though the weather wasn’t great and the view wasn’t the best, we still had a fantastic time😇
My 11 yr old son and I had a wonderful time on our visit to The Empire Building. It was educational and informative for my son. Every employee was helpful, polite and made our experience a one to remember.
Precious and beautiful, a unique experience.

It was almost awesome, better directions could be included, Uber took us to the battery as advised but with construction the drop off was a bit of walk, one of the travelers cannot walk easily, we were well past the proper drop off. Include drop off near Bowling Green subway stop on the park side, it is an easier walk, follow the "blue sign" into the park. something like that. The cruise, your team and the sites were excellent.
Excellent experience. Booked for 10pm to see Manhattan by night. Building covered in mist so staff invited us to rebook the next day, which we accepted. Superb, clear views and great opportunity to see an iconic building. The exhibits area is an added bonus
Jimmy was a fantastic tour guide! He was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what he does. His enthusiasm made the tour engaging and enjoyable from start to finish. My family and I had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an informative and memorable tour.

What can I say, for us it is the second booking in a few days and I must say that everything was perfect. Very affordable prices, rapidissimio the arrival of tickets and management of reservations. As well as very good discounts, which increase according to the bookings made. Top.

A visit to the history of the United States, it is necessary to pass by Ellis Island and as an icon of the country, to see the Statue of Liberty for what it represents.

Fantastic day discovering the most famous statue in the world and the history of Hellis island that I did not know. Very interesting and current topic of immigration. The visit to the Hellis museum is to do it all without missing anything!!!

Everyone was so helpful and friendly. It was rainy so it was not crowded but the weather held off so we got a great view of the city.
The ferry rides are fun. The views from the boats and both islands are fantastic. All personnel were friendly and helpful. There were plenty of ferries running so there wasn't a long wait to get to the next stop.
I enjoyed the history provided; however, it was not easy to get to a stop. There were not as many stops as I had expected.
The view on the 86th floor was the best. The of historical part was to long. The ticketing experience was fine. What I didn't like was the long lines shuffeld us along it took forever to get where we were going.
Yo much traffic The day was very hot The drivers were good
The park ranger's talk at the Stayte of Liberty.
The buses stop at all the major attractions in New York City, like Times Square, the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Rockefeller Center, and Central Park. This means you get to see all the must-sees without having to worry about transportation.
Most Hop-on, Hop-off buses have open-top decks, which offer amazing panoramic views of the city. It's a great way to get a sense of the city's size and scope.
New York City's public transportation system can be confusing. Here, all you have to do is simply buy a Hop-on Hop-off ticket, find a bus stop, and hop on. The buses follow a set route, so you don't have to worry about getting lost.
Most Hop-on Hop-off tours have pre-recorded commentary in multiple languages that provide interesting information about the sights as you move past them.
Yes, the Big Bus app lets you track bus locations live, so you can plan your hop-off points easily and minimize wait times.
Buses arrive every 15-30 minutes, so you won’t need to wait long to hop back on after exploring each stop.
Yes! Big Bus offers 1- or 2-day passes to match your schedule and sightseeing needs, making it easy to fit in as many attractions as you like.
Absolutely, the open-top deck is ideal for capturing photos of New York’s famous skyline, landmarks, and vibrant streets. Just be cautious to secure your camera as the bus is moving.
