The bus will circle the city with numerous stops at all the must-see locations. Stay on the whole loop for a city overview or get off at any/all of the stops for an in-depth exploration. The choice is yours! As the bus moves from stop to stop, you can pick and choose which stops to get off at and explore. Tailor-make the day the way you want it!

Upon boarding, you will receive a map and guide from either your driver or hostess.
