The development and beauty of Pittsburgh - Great to see and learn some of the history of Pittsburgh. After the tour, we took one of the inclines and I bought a great print of four panels of history from the American Indians to today. Excited to frame it and put it in my home as a souvenir of Pittsburgh..

My trip around Pittsburgh! - The views were amazing. The driver and our guide were incredibly informative and added humor to many situations. The city was fabulous and I wish I had more time to spend. We will definitely come back for a visit and stay. Ironically, the weather was beautiful as well. It was money well spent.

A great introduction to Pittsburgh - A great way to get a quick overview of all the Pittsburgh highlights. Out tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The amount of local trivia he had memorized was truly impressive. I would highly recommend the bus tour to anyone who is new to Pittsburgh and wants to learn more about it.

Tour excellent…sales lady…Not So Much!! - Tour was very good. We thoroughly enjoyed it. But…..they will not let you use a washroom in their storefront. However they will ask you to come in and buy their merchandise. I was with a 90 yr old senior and was told to cross the street and walk 1/2 a block and turn down the breezeway (alley). The gentleman I was with was clearly in distress. I told her we had tickets on the tour and please could she show some compassion. She repeated where I was to go louder and slower. Very rude. Also….we bought our tickets ahead of time and paid approx $10 more per ticket than if buying there. The bus was 1/2 empty so I don’t see the need for anyone to buy ahead of time and pay extra.

Beautiful area. - The views were spectacular. We went late afternoon so there was considerable traffic in the city. Maybe a little more dialogue during the dead times. Also. We got off once and reboarded. The 2nd guides mic was not working well .
