Safe and enjoyable

Carol_R, May 2026

Yellow bus hop on hop off

Michael_A, Apr 2026

Tour operator didn't inform us the bus was not going to operate until 2pm due to a marathon. We purchased tickets on sight seeing lisboa. They were at port at 8am when we were ready.

Had to pay for our tickets twice and at a higher rate

JillEden_B, Apr 2026

Even though I paid for our tickets in advance of our travel, we had no option but to pay a second time (and for a higher amount) when the driver said he could not access the UPC on my phone with no internet availability, or my ticket reservation number from my receipt. So, I never was able to redeem the original ticket purchase. I would like to request a refund. The first charge was 39.60 EU and the second charge was 60.00 EU. If a refund is not issued for one of the charges, then I would be happy to contact my credit card for a resolution. It would be great to hear from someone at Viator about this. I have copies of the receipts and tickets. The ride itself was fine.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Terrible experience

Sean_B, Apr 2026

No signage for bus. No help also the description of the ride wasn't clear and confusing. Had to upgrade the service to get back to the ship

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Horrible!! Use the red bus

Elizabeth_N, Mar 2026

I thought I’d booked the red bus. Had to climb uphill to deserted location for first stop. Wait 1 hour for yellow bus at next stop. Although saw multiple red buses stopping and then at the second to last stop. The driver told us next departure was in 20 minutes. Use the red bus. Book directly!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Great hop-on hop-off experience

Roxanne_M, Feb 2026

It starts at 9 am. Subway stop is nearby. Purchase of tickets to different lines is very well organized.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Not great but did get refund

Brian_T, Dec 2025

The experience wasn’t great never used the service the bus did not arrive outside the cruise terminal were we expected by the big yellow flag someone from another company said it was over the dual carriage way at another stop so has we crossed the road and the bus ijust departed so waited another hour then gave up but to be fair to Yelliw buses they did refund us so pleased with that

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Would not recommend.

Pamela_A, Dec 2025

We waited twice for over an hour to get on the bus. The Red Bus and Grey line Bus passed us atleast 4 times. Driver had huge attitude. Low quality tour.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Great experience!

Vadym_K, Dec 2025

Beautiful experience and memories! A wonderful opportunity to see the place and learn its history! Thank you!

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Long Wait Times for Buses

Theodore_N, Dec 2025

Hard to obtain information re bus. No one seemed to know where it started from. There was no information kiosk or office to get assistance. Several places sold tickets but couldn't help with questions or where to get the bus. The bus doesn't run about every 30 minutes as stated, as we stood an hour awaiting a bus after hopping-off at a stop. Three "Red" buses came by before the "Yellow" bus appeared after an hour wait.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Good Overview of Lisbon's Bellem Area

Shelley_A, Nov 2025

This Hop-on Hop-off experience provided a great overview of part of Lisbon. Because of the width of the streets, the bus is not able to navigate the very narrow streets of old Lisbon. This is best done on foot or by Tuk Tuk. The commentary on the bus was informative and provided interesting information. It was a bit challenging for our taxi driver to find the initial/central starting point as the address/point has changed. There are also more than one route for this company so it's important to find the correct spot for the route purchased. Overall, a good experience!

Hopping Through Lisbon

James_R, Nov 2025

This "Hop On Hop Off" tour was a best way for us to enjoy seeing Lisbon. We enjoyed the various stops and restaurant visited on the route.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

It was good to have a...

Laura_M, Nov 2025

It was good to have a tour of part (Belem) of the city. There are times where the audio was out of sync with where the bus actually was. I wish it was more clear that this was only one of the lines available & was expecting all lines were accessible on this ticket.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Picking your preference with this good operator is a must

Lynn_J, Oct 2025

The bus was clean and the headsets were clear. While the Belem tour through the historical district was good, we should have known that we could not also do the other yellow bus tours on one ticket. Next time I would pick the red bus which has 3 routes included on one ticket to see more of the city.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Poor driver service with bad attitude.

Herm_H, Oct 2025

Some drivers were friendly and cooperative, while one other driver in particular was rule and unhelpful.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Yellow Bus Hop On and Hop Off

Jim_B, Sept 2025

It was ok. We booked from our cruise. 25 minute walk to first stop from cruise terminal. Went on a Sat so sights were crowded and backed up. Good way to see sights and locations so you can visit when you have more time.

Major glitch in schedule

Christine_J, Jul 2025

Was lovely , quiet on the bus would have been great if the the radio was working so we can know the different stops

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Get the Red Bus

Tony_O, Jun 2025

Difficult to find the nearest stop to our hotel, in fact we could not find stop 2 Marques de Pompal and ended up walking for 20 minutes to the top of the Park at stop 4 or maybe 5. On the Sunday we we caught this bus it was jam packed and people were standing in the aisle which suggests they do not have enough buses. I have been on hop on/off buses in many cities and this is definitely the most boring as is the commentary which is mainly dreadful music.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Horrible experience we believe they are on strike. We’ve been waiting over an hour. The website says they are on strike.

Go with the red bus tours

Richie_D, May 2025

There’s a reason why this company is cheaper, they are harder to find with fewer buses. Wasted an hour trying to find their stops.

Eileen_H, May 2025

The Belem bus tour very good with some interesting places to visit, the modern tour not so much but for an extra 6 euro it was okay.

Lucky if audio jack produces sound

lynn_p, May 2025

A great overview of the city, supposed to be narrated, but many of the audio connections did not work at all. People were hopping seat to seat to find one they could listen to, and several people never heard a word. If you plan to take photos, sit on top level away from the windows. The route was beautiful, and friends needed a rest from walking, so it worked for us.

Below average

Nagarajan_C, Dec 2024

As mentioned in many of the reviews the busses aren't that punctual. Moreover it's very poor value for money as well since the places covered aren't that much. It's better to take public transport and do the same thing for 60 percent cheaper. Wouldn't recommend it.

Couldn’t get on bus and never able to redeem voucher.
