User Reviews

User reviews consistently praise the app for route planning, locate-me and bus-tracker features, and generally easy navigation, plus responsive customer support. However, recurring complaints focus on reliability and accuracy: live tracking and maps often misrepresent stops or directions, and buses run late or skip stops. Ticketing problems and gaps in city coverage (missing cities, digital tickets not accepted) worsen the experience. In-app messaging is weak—route changes and stop closures aren't reliably communicated—along with a cluttered UI, leading to frustration for many travelers.

Pros

Locate-me and bus-tracker features are helpful for planning and navigating cities.
Easy-to-use app with route planning features.
Responsive customer support.
Convenient for getting around cities and switching lines.

Cons

Inaccurate or unclear live tracking and maps; routes are often misrepresented or not followed.
Long wait times and reliability issues with buses; delays and overcrowding are common.
Ticketing problems and city coverage gaps (missing cities, digital tickets not accepted).
Poor in-app communication about route changes, closures, and timetables.
UI/UX issues: non-intuitive interface and cluttered maps/markers making it hard to use.

Recent reviews

We’ve taken tours all over the world. This was hands down the worst tour ever. It stopped randomly for 15 minutes because the driver needed a drink. It stopped randomly to pick up people in random places often just 10-15 feet from each other. Worst part is we purchased a blue line ticket. The driver told us we were on the right bus, but we weren’t. Never made it to the destinations we really wanted to see. Will consider a different company next time.

Tour in NYC and London were fine but they could be a bit more clear upfront about how early the hop on, hop off hours run until (NYC it only ran until about 5:30 pm before the buses stopped running the routes, London did not go much later). They do offer night time tours but this is an entirely separate package. Suggestion would be to offer some type of combo package.
