We had the buschig ourselves on a very cold day. It was a great way to get an overview of the city. I learned a lot and should have done this a long time ago. My guest really enjoyed it too.

It was really great. Although in English, my 12-year-old son understood almost everything. It's also great that the guide adapts to the individual pace. Really well done!

Great for getting an overview and some knowledge about the city! The driver was very friendly and skilfully drove through the sometimes very narrow streets!

It works very well , the language is very easy to select and they show you the best of Frankfurt . Highly recommended.

Good explanation of the points approached, comfortable seats
