It was worth the money to purchase this tour. We go to see most of Washington on an air conditioned bus. In addition we got a free river cruise.

overall it was OK .at the end of day one it took nearly 40 minutes before a bus picked us up at the Lincoln Memorial stop at 23rd and congressional. The second day it was raining so our grandson could not be up top to view the city for the first time.

It's a good way to know the most important places in Washington, it would be better if the buses run more frequently. They dont run every 20-30 min as advertised. The costumer service phone line not helpfull at all.

We used this type of tour in NYC and SFO and had good experiences, This one was OK but badly organised initially, as once we picked the tickets up in Union Square, the bus had no commentary, retunred to base, chnged buses, then changed again and was delayed for 30 minutes! After that it improved. The GPS based commentary is consistent, but when you go on it more than once, you learn nothing new, where as withe the real tour guides, you learn new things every time.

Newest buses on town, everything was find but I would recommend the company to brake or separate the route of the tour so you don't have to repeat all the route twice just to get to a single location of the tour, sometimes is faster to take the Metro rail especially in DC. Also I would like to comment that some of the buses had a extremely dark tint windows and one of the buses had a mirror problem so it made the tour even slower when they switched us to another bus.

Our experience with Hop on Hop off wasn't great. there wasn't clear signs where to wait for a bus, we asked their staff and we got different answers, both wrong. twice we waited 45mins for a bus. Not very organized. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless it got better.

I believe you were a little overwhelmed by the number of customers you tried to service. The early warm weather combined with the early peak of the cherry blossoms caused overcrowding of your buses. The heavy traffic didn't help but that is out of your control. In addition, many of the buses that we rode on had no AC on the lower level.
