Was such a lovely day easy hop on and off lovely helpful staff (apart from one women at Times Square ) but well recommended and access to Empire State was amazing

We had a good time and we’re given some great information about New York. It was a lot of fun. This is way to much for a minimum.

We had a great experience despite a big problem… the attendant at Stop 2 forgot to give me my tickets for the Empire State Building add-on so when we arrived at 4:45 for our scheduled reservation, we were told we didn’t have the correct tickets to enter. And by that time, Big Bus Tours had closed for the day. I chatted with someone online who told me to visit Stop 1 in the morning and talk to an attendant there. Thankfully, I met Wanda who helped get the entire situation fixed and was able to help me schedule a new reservation for later that day and gave me an extra day of the bus for the hassle. I highly recommend visiting Stop 1 to start your tour and not starting at another stop. Only Stop 1 had as many attendants available, but were more knowledgeable, and provided lots of helpful information. I suggest Big Bus either provide more knowledgeable attendants at the other stops or make it a requirement (or at least a strong suggestion to start at Stop 1) rather than saying on the tickets that you can redeem them at any stop.

Hello Megan, Thank you so much for your detailed feedback! We apologize for the inconvenience but we are pleased to hear that our team was able to help correct the issue with your reservation and you enjoyed your visit. It is true that we currently have the most amount of agents at our first stop, but prior to COVID, we did staff most locations. We hope to be able to return to our normal operations soon and appreciate your suggestions for future guests!
