The narration was minimal. Would have liked more information and history on the audio part on the bus. Bus was not available for half the route the second half day due to an event. We had planned on using it in the second afternoon only - would have been nice to have been refunded a portion since unusable.

The service works very well, but I found the audio guide boring, it lost my concentration and interest. I would improve that, the way of telling what you are seeing, in a more relaxed and less documentary way.

The route covered most of Rome, which was excellent. On one bus the commentary was fabulous with conversations between Italian people in English but on another the English sounded like it was AI generated and it was terrible and didn't make sense.

The bs trip was really great. One of the buses had a pretty stupid commentary with three people giving irrelevant information, but the other buses had sensible and informative commentary. It was a bit of a trek to the Spanish steps and Trevu Fountain from the stop which was hard going in the heat. Booking through headout was quick and easy and we were able to redeem the voucher for a ticket with no problem at all.

Categories and subcategories above don't fit my needs! Require an 'OTHER' box to tick. Please disregard the boxes ticked and see below. Not so good - Commentary wasn't always in sync with where we were so was hard to follow at times. Did another hop on/off in Palermo (with another company) and it was spot on. Got on the bus and we weren't told where the earphones were. Sat down and then had to ask another passenger. Would have been good to have them placed when we walked on (maybe near the driver). Good - the staff organising everyone at the stops. Was well organised.

Very easy to get tickets and then find the right location and bus. Commentary was humerous throughout and also very informative. Liked the option of closed downstairs or open air downstairs as it was very hot. We did the route and then again once we decided where to visit as our time was limited. All in all great experience and good value for money.

I like the ease of being able to hop on and off the bus. I think it would be better to advise how far away the attraction is from the bus's hop on or off spot. For example the coliseum hop on hop off spot is down the street and around the corner, that information would have been more helpful to include with the information about the location already available.

We had booked the Hop On Hop Off tour in Rome so that we could plan our exploration tour as flexibly as possible. With the app, we could always see exactly when a bus was on its way to the next stop. That worked very well. We had the option of getting on or off at any of the stops. Perfect for us. We also used the headphones on the bus and were able to listen to interesting details in German. Sometimes, especially when getting on at the main station, the buses are very full, so you just take the next one or walk one stop forwards or backwards. You can either take it all in a relaxed manner or get off at every stop and explore the city. Simply great. We would book it again in the same way.

A great thing that saves a lot of walking. All the main things are easy to see and even more interesting with the audio information. We initially traveled the entire route, which gave us the opportunity to decide where we wanted to get off and see something. The friendly service on the bus was great - you also get the headphones for the audio information.

It's a good way to start your visit to the city, especially with children. Friendly outside. Good value for money compared to the competition. The driver didn't want to uncover the roof of the bus even though it wasn't raining... He replied in Italian, looking up at the sky. He was talking about the weather, but his colleague checking the entrances told us that the roof could no longer be opened: it was broken. So we asked to go down and wait for the next one: what's the point of having a closed roof? And then he looked at us and said... it's ok, we'll fix it. 5 seconds later the roof was stowed away, much to the delight of the passengers who hadn't dared ask. Too bad, though, that we had to insist. Don't hesitate!

I was lucky enough to have rented an apartment near the Spanish Steps stop which was 200 metres away. So it was very convenient to get on to the bus. Also I had booked online and l could just exchange my barcode on my mobile for the tickets for the 5 of us for our 48 hours usage in Rome. This was the 1st time l had used Headout.com . I had read all the reviews on Big Bus and a few other companies including Headout and l chose Headout as their tickets were €3.80 per ticket cheaper than Big Bus. There seemed to be no difference in the stops the others offered on the tour as they all stop at the same place. I have used Bug Bus before in Budapest as there were no other choice there . I am happy with Headout and would recommend them

The experience was ok. The stops were all far away from our end destinations. The headphones were extremely cheap and didn't stay in our ears. Additionally, the bus would start causing a 10 minute delay. Also, the high number of people asking us to do a bus tour when we pre-booked was extremely annoying.

Easy jump on and jump off. A few things to improve on though: 1)Make the bus stops much more visible. The red signs are too small. 2)On the commentary the commentator should say 'on your left is' and'on your right is'. Too many times the commentator says something is there but you don't know where to look. Enjoyable all the same but these improvements would make it awesome.

The tour itself was nice, but it was problematic to find some of the stops. The stops were quite chaotic and crowded, it wasn't clear in which bus to go.

The route followed is very useful, it takes you close to the most popular tourist spots (this being Rome, it is obvious that it cannot leave you in front of the Trevi Fountain, you have to walk a bit). The only downside is the malfunctioning of some of the guides, on the bus we had to change seats several times to hear it.

The Sight seeing bus was fantastic. We got the 72 hour pass that included free night bus. It cost very little more than the 24 hour ticket. We used it several times a day. Never waited more than 5 minutes for a bus and could always get a seat on open top upper floor. The buses are really popular and so they are very packed and they are slow as traffic in Rome is crazy. However we found them a nice break to sit down and relax between sights. Especially good for my nearly 70 mum to take a break but still be seeing all the sights of Rome.

This was a great way to get a sense of Rome's scale and locations to visit. The audio guide was informative. The music played between descriptions to block out road noise was effective and made it more relaxing. We road the full loop first, which took an hour and a half then stayed on the bus to get dropped off to visit the Oarthenon. Glad we did this since when we returned to the bus later to use it to return to the starting point it was packed and we could not reboard so we just walked back to the train station instead which fortunately worked out alright. The first tour starts at 9am and it would have been good to be able to get on at an earlier time like 8am but maybe this is related to traffic laws related to peak commuting hours. It was easy to get on at the first stop right beside the central train station.
