Kiel tour - Informative about history and rebirth after WWII. Great way to learn a little about this port city. We chose not to travel to Hummingbird as we were limited in port time.

Enjoyed in spite of rain. - Very interesting tour marred by a rainy, rainy day. This was the best way to see Kiel on such a day. Ride around, learn about the city, and stay dry. Interesting note - when the narrator says that after WWII stylistic elements were removed, I’m thinking the swastikas were sandblasted out of existence.

GREAT VIEWS - With just one day in Kiel this was the best way to get the most of this very beautiful city on the sea. We were lucky enough to be there during their annual yachting spectacular.

2 hour round trip- only one bus - The bus came right to the cruise terminal which was convenient but beware that there is only 1 bus during the week and takes 2 hours to go around so if you get off be prepared to wait, walk or get a taxi back. Not good if you have a short stay in port for the day. And the bus was full and people were turned down to get on. The driver said another bus would be along “ shortly”

Don't do it! - Terrible tour. Not worth the money. Bus is run down, too hot, not air-conditioned and barely any windows. Not quite touristic!! Would sure not do it again!

Worst hop on hop off service I have ever used. - The worst hop on hop off bus, I waited over 2 hours for a bus that wasn’t full, once onboard the information for hearing about the trip was not available on the seat I sat on ,
I have given one star as couldn’t leave no stars.
Would not recommend this service

Driver not very good or informative - The driver said he would make announcements at the stops but never did. Didn't know where we were. Once I got off I had to find my way around.

Worst Hop-on Hop-off ever. SAVE YOUR MONEY - This was supposed to be a hop-on hop-off with seven stops. The driver picks us up at the port and made 1 stop. There was nothing there and then he drove us back to the port, and told us to get off.

Hop on Hop off - Tour shows that they will pick you up at the port, however they did not mention which port. To my surprise, when I got off my cruise ship, they did not pick up at this port so I had to pay a taxi to get to the pick up location. Once there, I was advised by the kind gentleman that the green bus is not offering English auditory and i would need to wait 50 minutes for the red bus which offers it in English. Much to my disappointment, when I got on the bus, I had the English auditory but the bus driver kept speaking over the English message in German and so I did not understand anything the prerecorded voice was announcing. do not take this tour, waste of money!

Waste of Money - There was only 1 bus running for most of the morning. At about noon, a second bus was in operation. The buses were running an hour behind schedule. The narration was pre-recorded and did not correspond to the stop, so there was confusion among the passengers as to where we were. We sat outside the shopping mall for almost a half-hour without an explanation. I've used HOHO's in many cities and always enjoyed the tour, however, this was the absolute worst. Wouldn't recommend at this time.
