Padua Hop On Hop Off Open-Top Bus Tour 24h

You can see all the highlights of the city in 50 mins. However, this particular bus doesn’t seem to make any stops, and I’ve found with all these hop on/off buses, getting a headset that works or works with both ears is challenging. It’s an ok way to get your bearings and see highlights, but if you have time, a map, and can walk, it’s likely better to see things that way.

Nem értem a negatív véleményeket. Ennyi pénzért ez egy kiváló lehetöség. A buszon minden utas kapott egy saját fülhallgatót, amit meg is tarthatott. Spanyol, német, lengyel, orosz, angol, német nyelvek közül lehetett választani. A buszsoför rendkívül kedves és barátságos volt. A busz nagyon pontosan indult és érkezett. Kisgyermekkel tökéletes program, hogy ne gyalogosan kelljen bejárni mindent.

Die Stadt ist sehr schön und hat eine lange Geschichte die macht sehr gut erzählt bekommt. Allerdings muss man sehr gut aufpassen, weil der Fahrer nicht an jeder Haltestelle hält. Dann sind die Haltestellen oft nicht an der Stelle wo sie in der Karte verzeichnet sind. Die Haltestellen sind also schlecht zu finden und in einem miserablen Zustand. Am besten mal läuft an die Kathedrale (Büro befindet sich hier auch nicht mehr), wo der Bus 15 Minuten steht und beginnt dort die Tour. Das Band und die Fahrt selbst ist sehr schlecht abgestimmt und man weiß sehr oft nicht über welches Gebäude gerade gesprochen wird.

We hopped on to get a tour and then jump off at the train station to catch our train back to Rome (3 hr 30 min). This was the last train from Padua to Rome of the day. The audio kept cutting out and would start back up and everyone was looking around, not sure what we should be seeing or what the narrator was addressing. I think it was out of sequence. Then, our driver did NOT stop at the train station (stop #9). We were on the top of the bus, so couldn't get down the stairs fast enough. When we were pulling off, we ran down and begged him to stop. He let us off at some market. We had to find another bus or taxi to take us to the train station (now a mile away). We grabbed a public bus, got to the train station just as our train arrived. We almost missed it. I would never do one of these again in any city. Total waste of money.

Sono rimasta molto delusa dal servizio, speravamo di poter utilizzare il bus per visitare più siti possibili ma passava ad ogni fermata dopo 1 ora di attesa e come non bastasse c'era anche la pausa di due ore dalle 12 alle 14, insomma siamo riusciti a fare un giro completo con spiegazioni che non erano allineate a quello che vedevamo insomma un gran caos. Non o consiglio assolutamente.

This is the WORST tourist attraction I have ever been on! First of all the bus was all wet and dirty inside, seating had water on them and dirt. The head set was not working so we didnt have a guided tour. There was an issue with the side installation. We were sitting on the top and the tree branches were hitting us on the head and face… dangerous if one the brances ends up in you eyes. I would love it if I could go that hour of my life back, not to mention money (15eur)! Definatelly not worth the time and the money.
