The staff were very helpful and i did not envey them at all. The weather was very wet and cold. And they put on a good trip.

The tour guide that narated one of our journeys was very funny - I can imagine he says the same things over and over again, but still managed to make the delivery sound like it was the first time. It's a shame that he did not have a name badge because I would like to give him credit! One this that was not so good, is that we waited at the designated bus stop at the right time - one of the busses did not arrive which meant we were waiting for a longer time than we should have.

I love the tour guide that explained everything and I really enjoyed sitting and watching all the historic sites go by. Because of my previous experiences I always use your service whenever I go to a new city

With limited mobility it was such an assett. Also, although enjoyed the recorded commentary, the gentleman giving a direct report on history etc was brilliant

Had a great day hopping on and off and even loved the guide's knowledge and sense of humour so much we stayed on and did the whole circuit ... Friendly helpful staff , lots of convenient stops and comes by often enough to make use of all day . Worth every penny

Ticketing through Headcount was extremely easy. The pre-recorded audio history and the live guide we experienced on the bus were informative and entertaining.

Brilliant we went on the bus in York twice in the 24 hrs. Had different guides and were both brilliant. One of them was all History and the other one more touristy. Very informative and very friendly . The buses were very clean and lot of space
