- Depending on your preferences, you can either stop to visit or tell yourself that you will have to return to this or that place. It is at the same time, a spotting and a discovery of the city.
- We love being out in the open-bus to experience the city even closer and take pictures. We like the rapidity to go from one attraction to another without wasting time looking for orientation.
- For children as for adults it is quite fun and finally frankly practical. We can only recommend this experience.

@Virginia
Hello Virginia,
Of course, Virginia, the ticket gives you access to the upper deck of the bus, whatever the weather.
If it's raining lightly, it's playable; if it's raining a bit more, it's not very pleasant.
But don't be in any doubt about that.
Enjoy your visit - hopefully without the rain ;-)

Hello,
If it's raining lightly, can we still sit on the floor of the hop-on hop-off bus, i.e. outside, or is access closed?
Thank you.
