Salimos encantados. Muy bueno que incluyera autobuses de dos pisos con techo abierto. El guía se acordaba del nombre de todos, un detalle que se agradece. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable.

Better than expected
Booked at the last minute and it was a great call. We paid noticeably less than other options and the experience was just as good. Edimburgo Cooking was the moment of the day. Well signposted throughout, and staff were attentive. Suitable for any age.

Salimos encantados. Se agradece el autobuses de dos pisos con techo abierto. El guía fue un capítulo aparte: sabía muchísimo y contestó todas nuestras preguntas. Ojalá todos los tours fueran así.

Buena elección si es tu primera vez en Edimburgo. Solo por Big Bus Edinburgh vale la pena el paseo. El precio es honesto para lo que se recibe. Le falta señalización en el punto de salida, nos costó encontrarlo.

Una de las mejores cosas que hicimos en Edimburgo. El lugar en Big Bus Tours Atenas tiene una ambientación hermosa. Tardaron en traer las bebidas al principio. Cinco estrellas bien merecidas.

Altamente recomendable
Una de las mejores cosas que hicimos en Edimburgo. El guía hizo la diferencia, se le notaba que le gusta lo que hace. Por el precio que pagamos, la verdad que rinde muchísimo.
