    Two Days of Easy Breezy Sightseeing!

    Vineeth_W, Apr 2026
    I went for the 2-day pass, and it was the best decision. The buses were super comfortable, and since the driver and host spoke great English, everything was a breeze. Pro tip: Download the app! Being able to see exactly where the bus is at all times is a total game-changer. Having 48 hours meant I could actually enjoy a relaxed lunch and explore every stop without that "rushing for the last bus" panic. 10/10 would recommend!

    Great deal

    Oscar_P, Apr 2026
    Great deal. you can use the bus 2 days and also the funicular and teleferico for 2 days. The bus goes around all the tourist spots and I was lucky that it stopped at the hotel le Meridien where I was staying .

    Top-Notch Help "On The Buses"

    James_S, Feb 2026
    We always take the Hop-On / Hop-Off bus the 1st day we are in a new city / destination; it allows us to orient ourselves and decide what parts we want to see in-depth during our stay. This 2-day Pass gave us the chance to use our Funicular / CableCar tix properly without depending on cabs, and to what parts of Santiago we wanted to spend time in.

    Great way to get overview of the city.

    Rosemary_S, Feb 2026
    It was a bit hard to find the bus stops. Need better signage. But once you did find and hop on the sights were interesting and it was a great way to get oriented and discover what we wanted to come back to.

    Must do!

    Madeleine_M, Jan 2026
    2 1/4 hour loop so gives you an extensive view of Santiago Stops are not marked tho so you may need to be watching for the bus! Very helpful staff with very good English Pia Nono stop has lots of bars & restaurants

    Not as good as I imagined

    Marcia_B, Dec 2025
    Only buy a ticket if you can commit to 2 full days. The cable car was delightful but took up most of the day. Finding our pickup point was frustrating.

    Sightseeing - windy

    Breda_F, Nov 2025
    Easy to find stops but not clear until we got the map and app and only when we found the bus stop on google

    A day in Santiago

    Nick_T, Sep 2025
    A great way of experiencing some of Santiagos best attractions taking in San Cristobal hill and hop on hop off bus

    Santiago hop on hop off

    Sue_H, Mar 2025
    Best hop on hp off we have used, you actually could get off and on without waits or fuss. Cable car and funicular included is a master stroke

    Great way to see the city...

    Valerie_W, Feb 2025
    Great way to see the city as it is quite large. Staff were knowledgeable, friendly and spoke English well.

    Difficult to find pick up...

    Ritchie_W, Feb 2025
    Difficult to find pick up points as no signage at locations where buses stop. Seats are hard so after the first hour….. Great route, but could be broken into two -inner city and outer.

    Grat staff but slow tour

    Ramona_P, Feb 2025
    The staff on board are exceptional. They went out of their way to help me. However the tour itself is extremely SLOW. Very little information between stops and the info provided is basic.

    Very good

    ELLEN_G, Dec 2024
    Very informative. Provided the tour in various languages (with earphones). Be sure to take the buses with plug-in commentating, as the wi-fi only bus cuts in and out. Was great to have hop-on/hop-off and tickets for both the funicular and cable car. Just be sure to see what the hours for those are, as times were limited for us due to Christmas and Mondays.

    Best way to see the city

    Tracey_H, Oct 2024
    This was a great way to get around Santiago. The buses are clean and the staff friendly and helpful. Any questions you could whats app someone and they replied immediately. The only negative was if you embarked at a station which you hadn't disembarked on it was difficult to find out where the stop was as there is no stop sign showing Turistik.

    Must see place!

    Nahum_T, Oct 2024
    I am beyond amazed with the level of organization that Santiago / (Chile) has displayed. Although the country has an influx of immigrants... However, it still remains a place to visit. Kudo to the Bus tour company. Great value and driving...

    Great tour and guide

    Michael_L, May 2024
    Santiago is a beautiful city with a rich history that I enjoyed learning about as I listened on the tour. Jorge was a wonderful host who made sure to communicate prior to each stop which points of interest were on that stop. The only downside for me was that the cable cars were not open on the Monday I visited and the other ride option opened after 1pm which did not work for my schedule. I wish I had known this prior to my booking.

    2 of our buses broke down...

    Dianne_G, Apr 2024
    2 of our buses broke down and 21/2 hours delay. Weren’t able to see many many things. Other countries were much better.

    Bus Stops

    Lewis_B, Mar 2024
    The buses are good and the people working on the buses were really helpful and gave good information, the only thing I found that was not up to standard was that there are no signs to say exactly were the bus stops, people were guessing wee the stop was a simple bus stop would have made the whole experience a lot better

    Enjoyable

    Joe_D, Mar 2024
    Difficult finding the stopping points Require the tour map before excursions. Personal on the buses very helpful

    Overpaid by buying through Viator

    Eva_Z, Mar 2024
    First, we overpaid by buying through Viator (3 times the price). Better buy it from the operator once you arrive. Second, there is no real schedule of the busses. They run on average every 40 mins or so….

    Worth it

    Fangyi_Z, Mar 2024
    Well organized bus tour. Staff speak good English on board. Very easy to locate the bus stops along the route.

    Bus stops could be better...

    Ivy_S, Feb 2024
    Bus stops could be better marked for those without the app on their phones. Staff was very friendly and helpful

    The cable car and...

    Gay_K, Feb 2024
    The cable car and funicular were both excellent. The staff on the buses were really helpful and communicated clearly.

    Convenient bus

    Amy_C, Feb 2024
    Visited most popular places in Santiago in two days. 3 minutes from our hotel. The lady on the bus was very nice and helpful. She announced every stop.

    Friendly and helpful staff

    Debbie_W, Feb 2024
    Loved our tour of the city. Was always easy to find the stops because there were representatives at. most stops. Staff on the busses were very friendly and helpful. Definitely a good way to see the city

    Excellent way to see Santiago in one day.

    Ben_L, Jan 2024
    The hop-on hop off is an excellent and inexpensive way to see all the main attractions in Santiago in only one day. If your planning to stay longer the 2 day pass is highly recommended

    Easy way to see Santiago

    Carol_M, Jan 2024
    Best way to see Santiago is to use the Hop on Hop off bus. You get to see the sites in the comfort of a double decker bus. Lovely staff. 10 different stops.

    Good way to see the sites

    Marissa_N, Jan 2024
    The bus stops were hard to find. There was limited info on the audio guide. The bus, funicular and cable cars were clean and well cared for.

    Stops aren't marked. We...

    Eileen_O, Jan 2024
    Stops aren't marked. We spent 2 hours trying to find a bus, despite calling your line 3 times. The ride was fine and the hostesses were nice.

    Great way to see Santiago

    Michael_K, Jan 2024
    Had the 2 day pass but was only able to use one day. Still was able to do the city loop and the funicular and cable car. Helped skip the payment line too. The 2 hour+ loop is longer depending on traffic so plan ahead.
