    I used the Hop on/Hop on bus tour around Vancouver BC. I gave me a much needed perspective on a new city. The driver was attentive and informative.
    Iwould recommend this to amy visiter to VancouvrBC.

  • Kirk Conger   5.0

    Owen was particularly entertaining - a good tour guide.
    Handy to get a feel for the downtown area and get some ideas of areas where we wanted to spend more time (we bought 2-day pass).
    The 30-minute gap between buses was a little inconvenient but not unreasonable, and the real-time map gave hints of how long till the next bus came.
