As good as was possible. Not quite 5 Stars . . . . 4 and a half. - Caught the early one and then stayed on again to get certain of our bearings. Well worth doing. Audio worked well too. would recommend.

Great way to see the city - popular stops can get really crowded. - We stumbled upon this tour and were glad we did. They offered earphones with narration of sights around the city. It stopped at all the great points of interest. Be sure and stop at the funicular and ride it to the top for spectacular views. The only problem was trying to catch a bus back, we were on a cruise ship and needed to get back on time. We waited in a long line as 2 busses stopped but didn't have room for any more passengers. Some people left the line and grabbed a taxicab back to the ship. We walked backwards to an earlier stop and finally found a seat and were able to get back to the cruise ship on time.

Adequate tour, but hope for a sunny day. - I was a bit disappointed in this tour; it did not live up to other similar tours. It was a drizzly day (not unusual, I understand), and so the windows were foggy and we had to continually wipe them down. We were on the second level and it was hard to see out the top of the windows; they needed to have a larger pane of class to see the tops of buildings. Many of the audio connections did not work. My husband and I tried about six before we could find two that worked. That said, it did make a good loop around Bergen and you could see where you might want to come back to explore. Important to note: if you arrive on a cruise, the instructions said to meet the bus outside of the terminal. That's the MAIN terminal. We went to a different one, and by the time we exited the ship, there was no one around to point us to the bus stop. The company needs to address this issue.

Good option to get around - Bus was useful to get around. Was not clear when we had arrived at a hop off point. The audio did not work to begin with so we did not know what sights we were seening.

Save your money - Because it was raining we thought we’d book the sightseeing bus but Bergen is very walkable so save your money.

Walk, don't ride. - We were here on a ship, so it was on a crowded day. So, maybe most of my comments reflect these crowded times. Not much to see here in my opinion, and everywhere we stopped was crowded. The bus stop to board was actually #8 from where our ship docked, so we walked quite a distance from the ship. The information on the recorded tapes on the bus were sometimes difficult to understand, due to the accent of the talker and due to the quality of the audio equipment. So, overall I would not recommend. Just walk around town if you want to see the area.

Dodgy bus driver - Beware, there is a bus driver who is selling bus tickets for cash on the bus refusing to take credit cards. He is fiddling the company. Only buy tickets from uniformed employees in Bergen

I tried to cancel, but... - I tried to cancel, but was not allowed to so we decided to go so we could at least ride around and see sights. We waited for a bus for over an hour and one never showed up. It was pouring down rain and so windy you couldn't keep a hat on so we gave up. We lost our money on this adventure. Wouldn't recommend Bergen Hop on Off.

Rather have a sharp stick… or, beware consumers - Rank. Really. Just a flail. Count on an hour plus for the get on portion of the get off get on service. 2 hours for my wife and I to find a bud that wasn’t already packed full. Ended up having to find a cab to get back to ship. Every daggum bus had the same “sorry, we’re full, you’ll have to wait for the next bus”. Seriously, times 6. This, despite the fact that you’re absolutely crammed into the sardine can they call a bus. I’m 6’1” and my knees were crammed into my chin. Oh, but they did have headphones made to inform riders of the beautiful sights of Bergen. I changed seats 3 times and none of those “plug-ins” produced anything more than static. Never again. Next time I’ll just ask for a sharp stick I can poke in my eyes. Shame on that company

Don't waste your money on them. - Worst trip ever. Bad sound on guiding. Dirty bus. Driver who drove recklessly. Don't waste your money on them.
