Turn up every 15/20 minutes as promised. We had to wait over an hour for a bus, when it did arrive all the person operating the bus said well you’re luck waiting an hour 😞

The tour was great but the drivers weren't very helpful. They need to explain to riders about the headphones when you get on the bus

Well, of course we went in November to December, so the temperatures were not ideal for an open top bus. Having said that, this was not the issue. We did the full experience but the drivers were not pleasant at all. We hoped we could stay on after one run to then get off again a couple stops after in which the driver proceeded to shout at us all and a few other customers, telling us to get of his bus. So, we did, and then had to get on the bus just behind it instead. We also rebooked another day’s worth. This day it was raining, and another staff member had to argue and shout at a driver who refused to let us on his bus despite it being pretty much empty. Otherwise we would’ve been stood in the rain. The driver never spoke to us, and gave us all dirty looks as we got on instead. Overall, a cold and disappointing experience with this service, but it did get us from A to B in NYC traffic, so for that I can’t complain.
