The Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour was very nice, it was really helpful with getting to and from some of the attractions we visited while in Chi Town! Also, it was a great way to get pics of the city while riding around.

Two friends and I took the Big Bus tour of Chicago on April 3rd, a day it was raining/snowing. When we got on, all the other luckless tourists were huddled on the first level of the bus. But guess what?! There are metal grills on the windows, so you can see NOTHING out of the bus, from this level! Who made the brilliant idea of eliminating 1/3 of the seats from having a view on a sightseeing bus?! To top it off, the three of us are in our 70s, and I wear leg braces. But even though half the seats downstairs are labeled handicapped, they were full and no one budged when we boarded. Because the company eliminated their live guides in favor of a recording, the driver said she just drove the bus. So we were on our own. When I explained to two young women that due to my braces I would not be able to stand while the bus is in motion, they replied that these seats were theirs. I then asked a teenager if he would be willing to offer me his seat. A family member finally told him to go stand next to his mother. When I asked for my money back, I was offered a trip on the bus for the next day, which was also rainy. I was finally offered a free trip on a Big Bus Tour anywhere in the world rather than a refund. I guess I just need to remember not to do it on a rainy day!

Great to see the city, but the recorded audio was cheesy & boring. Really needed a live tour guide to add some character.

Very informative view of the city and the ability to see key landmarks in the area. I especially enjoyed the Navy Pier and wonderful it was a stop.

Excellent tour with great sound track and commentary. We probably should have thought about it earlier and got a two day pass but we ended up with only enough time to enjoy a full loop in the bus.
