The bus tour was advertised as a "Hop on Hop off," however, we were told that we were encouraged to stay on the bus for the first loop and then when we got back we could decide what we wanted to do. In the same breath, the driver, I think that his name was Bob, said that he had another tour following ours and that he would not be along to pick us up as advertised. If we called him he said that he could come and pick us up, but that it might take as much as 20-50 minutes to get there? He said that the bus tour was to orient us to Pensacola and the sights. He encouraged us to take the tour, and then to drive to wherever we wanted to go after the first loop of the tour. It was a little confusing. The tour was not as informative as we had hoped. We had been on many hop on and off bus trips around the country and this was by far the worse. We expected historical stories of houses and people along the route, instead we got a pre-recorded video with a lot of advertising about bars and restaurants. Bob did drive past the historical village, Memorial park, and the cemetery. One stop was the visitors center, which we had already gone to the day before. Supposedly we were to get discounts at local venders but we did not experience many that honored this discount. The cost was $30 each, but it would have been cheaper to just pay the entrance fee to wherever we wanted to go. We lost money on this excursion. We learned the hard way.

Thanks for your feedback. Corona has been difficult. I'll research what went wrong.

I did the hop-on-hop-off tour. It was awesome. Highly recommended. The first run lasted 1 hour, it was a video/driver guided tour. May you be a visitor or a local, I recommend doing this tour. Very historic, I'm a New Orleanean transplant and learned a lot on this tour. I often recommend this to everyone who asks me,"What is there to do in Pensacola?" I tell them, "The first thing you should do is take a tour of downtown Pensacola." My wife and I have lived here for 5 years and we learned so much. Should have done this a long time ago. We did the tour for an hour, went to Capt Joey Patti's restaurant that just got relocated to Garden St that day. The driver came back in an hour and we hopped back on. I recommend doing the earliest time. I believe it's 10 am. It ends around 3 pm. There are several hop on hop off spots along the tour route. Leroy is awesome!!!!

Our experience with Go Retro was excellent. The overall experience was a little disappointing but that was mainly due to situations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We were able to see everything Go Retro advertised but we were not able to experience and/or go inside some of the places. We did learn some very interesting history facts from our driver. To Go Retro: if possible it would be a plus for the riders if a good PA system is provided for the driver. Also, during this time of dealing with the pandemic issue, train the driver to stop at the various sites so everyone can hop off and be given a guided tour by the driver. To me that would be much more interesting than just sitting in the van or bus. Again, we were very pleased with our experience.
