Our guide was very energetic and kept the tour interesting throughout. He and the bus driver were an excellent duo, providing entertainment and some interesting factual information. The tour is not accessible friendly (not a problem for us) and there is a short walking tour included, which we found very interesting (but unexpected).

The bus was made to look the part for such a tour, with spooky music and dry ice. Found it better sitting on the lower deck, there was more room and it was a little cooler than on the top deck. The guide really fell into his role and made the experience funny and informative. It lasted a little less than an hour and a quarter but I suppose the traffic determines that. It was more atmospheric taking the tour later on in the dark, the only down side to that was not being able to see clearly the buildings/areas described by the guide. Overall it was very enjoyable, but perhaps small children would find it a little frightening.

We booked on line but we got a map from the hotel to say where the pickup point was . The map was wrong and outdated . We missed the first 10 minutes but we managed to catch the bus as it drove around . We were then told the directions on the app are the right ones and not to use the map
