We paid for the one day tour but when we picked up our tickets at their office they gave us a 2 day ticket which was a pleasant surprise. We went on the uptown and downtown tours and it stopped near all the main attractions. Good local tour guides.

Easy to use no hassle. They scan give you a ticket that is used every time. Good idea to photograph it though on your phone in case you lose it.
