Bonne journée
Merci pour vos commentaires - nous sommes désolés que votre appareil n'ait pas fonctionné ... Je ne connais pas les détails de la situation. Pour le moment, nous avons toujours des places libres pour passer à une autre station. Veuillez envoyer un e-mail à m.trummer@busmiete.ch et nous pourrons parler d'un remboursement. Merci de votre compréhension.

"hopp on and off" Bezeichnung trifft nicht wirklich zu im traditionellen Sinn

-Erklärungen sehr ausführlich und informatif, gut
-ich verstehe ausländische Touristen die enttäuscht sind über Bezeichnung "hopp on and off", dazu müssten wohl viel mehr Busse verkehren und das System grundlegend angepasst werden, vielleicht kann ich eine Stellungnahme erwarten
-gut, dass die App auf dem Smartphone noch nachgehört werden kann, allerdings wären die Erklärungen ohne Unterbruch, d.h. ohne die einzelnen Stationen anzutippen, sehr erwünscht
Response from Host , Nov 2019
Guten Tag, danke für das Feedback. ACHTUNG:
Wir verkaufen den Bus nicht als Hop-on, Hop-off sondern als Bus mit der Möglichkeit die Tour an jeder Haltestelle zu unterbrechen und zwei Stunden später wieder zu zusteigen.
Wir freuen uns, dass Ihnen der Inhalt der Tour gefallen hat. Der Audioguide und der gesprochene Inhalt ist das wichtigste der Tour - da freuen wir uns drüber.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
