It was a comedy of mistakes from getting on the bus. They had us all get off again to move the bus forward 20' and then had us board again (for what purpose?). The CD was for the day tour (we were on the night tour); the driver didn't know the monuments well enough to know the narration wasn't matching where we were and plus the CD barely worked (scratched or skipping or getting stuck). I reported all this to the "service people" at the desk in Union Station and they just shook their heads. One of the guys did say "Oh yea, the CDs don't work on all the buses". I don't know who is running this company, but it's amazing they are still in business. It was very annoying that half of the narration was for the "hop off/hop on" day tour so every 5 minutes we listened to instructions for reboarding or getting off the bus (even though you don't get on and off for the night tour). Is it really that expensive to make another CD with proper narration for the night?  (Hide)
