Customer Reviews
If you are English speaking, do not go on this trip, unless you have been told the commentary is on English. We were not and the headphone commentary was constantly being overridden by the tour representative on board. Therefore we learnt very little about the city. We did mention this to the representatives on board, but they just kept telling us the tour is in Spanish. Not a great advertisement for trying to encourage international tourism.
We attempted to board the bus, assuming we could buy tickets on board. Incorrect. We asked if we could jump on and buy them online so we'd have time to enjoy the tour. Not only did they not have the option - they were quite rude about it. (Quite unusual in my three years of visiting Argentina). In the end we were basically begging them. Nope. Get off. A simple "We're sorry about that, we can't." would have been fine. Being made to feel you're one more annoying tourist? Not fine. They definitely did me a favor. I spent 45 minutes on their website and tried three different US credit cards. Generated two orders but couldn't get the payment gateway to cooperate. (For context, I own an IT company). After reading the reviews, I had minimal expectations. But the entire experience was dismal. Save your money, use Google to navigate where you're interested in and have a wander around. For that matter, for 60,000 you can catch quite a few Uber rides. Mendoza is great. This company? Pathetic.
While the tour offered some beautiful views from the park, I found it challenging to fully enjoy the experience due to a few shortcomings. Firstly, as an English speaker, I felt excluded because the tour was conducted entirely in Spanish at over talked English commentary. This made it difficult for me to engage with the commentary and fully appreciate the tour's highlights. Furthermore, the absence of a tracking app made it challenging to navigate the tour route and anticipate stops effectively. This lack of technological support detracted from the overall experience and made it less convenient. Additionally, the requirement to purchase tickets exclusively at Plaza Independencia posed an inconvenience, limiting accessibility and flexibility as we wanted to join tour at stop 5 (other city’s offer this option) Overall, my experience with the city bus tour was below expectations, primarily due to the language barrier, lack of technological amenities, and limited ticketing options. I hope this can be improved for other customers.
