Smiley Sean - Great way to get around the city, drops are well situated. Sean our driver was really friendly and jovial (even though it was race day so the roads were busy) still managed it with a smile and informed us when getting on about the delays due to traffic, thanks Sean. Well worth the money.

Bargain at a fiver - Did the £5 1 hour trip which was really good value. Didn't want/need the hop on off element but doing this gave us an insight into where places were for later in our trip. Bus clean and tidy and both drivers friendly. Would recommend 👍

- An excellent value, hop on, hop off tour bus. We did the whole route once and then dropped off firstly at Grosvenor park, well worth a walk round, there is a lovely cafe with fresh homemade cakes there. Hopped back on for Grosvenor museum with it's Roman history, then onto the town centre which is rich in History.

Hop on/off bus. - Brilliant, saw so much of Chester, might not have done otherwise. The commentary was excellent, very informative and interesting. The price was really good, can also get a discount on a 30 minute river trip, if tickets bought at the same time.

Great introduction to Chester. - The hop on hop off bus tour was really good. £4 for seniors trip, but it wasn’t hop on and off. The tour gave us a good introduction to Chester, and helped us prioritise our days, tour, sight seeing, shopping etc.
