The choice is yours! As the bus moves from stop to stop, you can pick and choose which stops to get off at and explore. Tailor-make the day the way you want it!

The map includes all the stops, sites you can see as well as discounts for different establishments in the city. Your driver or hostess, while, not a guide, can answer many general questions you might have.

The first bus departs, Stop #1, at 10:00 am. Buses run every 60 minutes from April - November. The route has 10 stops, and it takes approximately 60 minutes to do the entire loop without getting off, from the time you board the bus so plan for a minimum of one hour to do the loop without hopping off. There is a limited number of seats sold per day so book quickly.
