Vale cada centavo
Muito felizes com a escolha. O língua inglesa chegou na hora que precisávamos. Assentos Reservados foi o fecho do dia. Recomendo para qualquer idade.

We enjoyed it
Good value for money. We learned more about the city in a few hours than from three guidebooks. We loved the Shopping area. The return time was kept to the minute. Frequency between buses could be better at the later stops. Recommended overall.

Simplesmente perfeito. O detalhe de Entrada do Castelo de Edimburgo faz diferença. O guia contava histórias que não estão em nenhum guia de viagem. Recomendaria a qualquer um que visite Buenos Aires.

Amazing day
Could not have gone better. We went back to Edinburgh on our own the next day. We finished with a clear picture of how the city fits together. The guide gave us restaurant tips that turned out to be spot on. Easily one of the best things we did.

Bom custo benefício
Boa experiência, com um detalhe que vale saber antes. A equipe em terra foi atenciosa desde o primeiro contato. Castelo de Edimburgo foi o fecho do dia. A única ressalva: o grupo era maior do que imaginávamos. Com esses detalhes ajustados seria nota 10.

Not to be missed
So glad we booked this. We finished with a clear picture of how the city fits together. The open Top Bus Tour (you need your printed tickets for this part of the day) detail adds a lot. If only every tour were run like this.
