The tour has 11 stops,... - The tour has 11 stops, notably the Titanic Cemetery and the Citadel fort. Several stops for unique shopping at stores. Had three different narrators which did a nice job. If you stay on and don’t get off it’s probably an hour around the stops. You ride vintage double decker buses which is fun.

If Only I Could Have Seen Better - The bus ride was everything a Hop On - Hop Off should be: prompt, helpful, interesting and visited all the necessary sights. The one complaint I have is that the windows needed to be washed. One would think this is something that would be done every day in a tourist type setting, but my guess is it hadn't been done in a week or more.

Transportation but not a tour - While I saved a few dollars with Viator, the savings didn't justify my having to walk to stop 3, a 15 minute walk, to board, while buying at the port allowed boarding at stop 1. The first bus I was on was loud and spewing gas fumes. The narration could hardly be heard over engine sounds as the narrated read from his notebook. The second bus was equally difficult to hear narration as the monotone, sleepy sounding narrator droned on. While, as a form of transportation, the hoho will get you to the few things worth seeing in Halifax, don't think of it as a tour. The Gardens, the Fairview Cemetery and the Citadel are worthy stops. Most other stops are a few minutes walk from the port and don't require transportation.

Halifax Hop on, Hop off bus disappointment - The bus only ran from 10am to 3 pm, not a full day. There were only a few buses, so it took about 45 minutes for us to get on to the bus after hopping off and visiting an attraction. There were no approximate pick up times at the stops, so you had no way of planning your visits. We wasted a lot of time waiting for the bus!

Don’t do this tour it’s a rib off! - It sucked, we got on at the first stop went the the 3rd stop maritime museum, we were told 20 mins for each time a bus comes by the stop. We waited an hour, NO BUS, we walked back to the 1st stop. 2 buses were parked at the first stop with the driver and guide sitting outside on their cell phones.A big waste of money and time. Do not waste you money!
