“We were staying 2 minutes from bus stop No.1 and each time we went to get a bus there was always one about to set off. Tickets were bought online and quickly validated by the representative. We had a 72 hour pass and used it every day to visit the old and new areas of Lisbon. The audio guide was very informative and clear. The drivers were very skilled in navigating the narrow, hilly, winding streets of Lisbon.”

Review of Porto’s hop-on hop-off bus tour, with route details, stops, port tasting, pricing, timing, and honest advice on value.
“When on a city break we always take a Hop On Hop Off tour. The full tour is a great way to get a quick overview and as it is a 48 hour ticket we are also able to get to specific places of interest. We travelled the red route and the blue route. Be aware that the blue route includes Gaia and that is not particularly interesting apart from the waterfront.”
See Funchal by open-top bus, from Monte to Câmara de Lobos, with walking tours, wine tasting, and flexible 24 or 48-hour tickets.
“Worked well- because our first step onto the bus was at 2pm on day of booking- the company let us have the next day too(no extra charge)! We went all around day 1 and day 2 stopped at points of interest and then picked up next bus when we were ready. Highly recommend”
