Frequently Asked Questions

Q: what is the best time to book a moscow hop-on hop-off tour.

March to May is the best time to plan a visit to Moscow. The days are long with significant sunshine which makes this time ideal for exploring the city. January is the coldest month so make sure to avoid it if you have a low tolerance for chilly weather. However, you will be able to score some good deals on airfare and accommodation during this time.

Q: How does it work?

Moscow bus tour offers you the convenience and flexibility to get off at the nearest designated stop. No tour guide, you set your own itinerary. You’ll find all the stops are located strategically at all the major attractions, making your touring as hassle-free as possible. And then, when you’re ready to continue, return to a designated bus stop, show your pass, and hop back on the bus and onwards towards your next attraction. So, go ahead and make a whole loop of the route once you have your tour ticket, get familiar with the city and pick out your favorite places to visit and then return to them during your stay.

Q: How many days are enough to explore Moscow?

We recommend at least two to three days to explore Moscow at a relaxed pace and cover most of its prominent attractions while enjoying shopping and local cuisine.

Q: What is the validity of the ticket?

There are several ticket options available to you, depending on your length of stay. Each bus tour will have validity from 24, 36, 48 to 72 hours. And the great thing is you can plan ahead as the vouchers are valid anywhere between 6 months to 1 year and can be used at any point during that period. Check the product page or bus tour operator for complete details.

Bus carrying Quebec tourists crashes in Cuba, leaving 1 dead and 26 injured

One person is dead and 26 were injured after a bus carrying Quebec tourists was involved in a collision in Cuba on Sunday.

Air Transat confirmed to Noovo Info that 38 passengers who were on the Montreal-bound flight TS715 were on board the bus during the crash near the Santa Clara Airport. An oncoming car lost control and struck the bus, causing it to roll over, according to airline spokesperson Bernard Côté.

The crash happened in the Camajuaní municipality, about 25 kilometres east of the airport.

Côté said all of the passengers were sent to a nearby hospital.

"We are certainly concerned for everyone's health and well-being, and are doing everything we can to offer them the support they need at this difficult time," he said in an email, adding that Air Transat arranged hotel accommodation nearby for passengers under observation or suffering from minor injuries.

Several Cuban media reported the person who was in the car, a Cuban citizen, was the one who died, and that six children were among the injured. One of the injured is listed in critical condition.

Global Affairs Canada said in a statement to Noovo Info that it is aware of the crash and it is ready to provide consular assistance if needed, but has not yet received such a request.

2 girls seriously injured after tour bus crashes into tree in North Jersey, police say

• Published: Jun. 04, 2024, 8:47 p.m.
• Chris Sheldon | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com

Two minors were seriously injured Tuesday afternoon when a tour bus crashed into a tree in West Milford, authorities said.

Officers rushed to East Shore Road in town at 3:16 p.m. after they received multiple 911 calls and discovered the bus was traveling south on the road when it hit the tree, according to a statement from the West Milford Police Department.

The impact caused one of the branches to break off and enter the passenger compartment of the vehicle, which was operated by Monsey Tours of Brooklyn, investigators said.

Two girls inside the bus were seriously injured, authorities said. One was flown to St. Joseph’s University Medical Center in Paterson and the other was flown to Hackensack University Hospital in Hackensack, police said.

Their conditions were unknown Tuesday night.

Three other girls were taken to a local hospital with minor injuries. The parents of all the girls were notified, the department said.

The crash is under investigation by the department’s crash investigation unit.

The tour company could not immediately be reached for comment.

Electric Buses

Big bus tours adds 40 electric sightseeing buses to its fleet.

Global open-top tour bus operator Big Bus Tours has added 40 electric sightseeing buses to its fleet in time for the summer holiday season.

Big Bus Tours is introducing 20 brand-new Ankai electric buses in Paris and Vienna and retrofitting 20 buses in London by converting 20 of the existing diesel fleet to electric.

The new electric tour buses in Paris and Vienna are purpose-built electric sightseeing buses supplied by Ankai Anhui. The buses have 315 kW battery packs, sending power to the road through a ZF hub-motor axle. The buses can DC fast charge within four to six hours, depending on the grid load.

In London, the original buses are 2012 Ankai tri-axle diesel converted to fully electric by Equipmake. The conversion entails fitting a 327 kW battery pack that sends power to a single motor driving directly into the existing axles. The buses can be charged either AC or DC. The London buses are only used during the day, so they’ll be charged overnight on 22 kW chargers.

“We are thrilled to welcome these new electric buses as part of our investment in sustainability,” said Pat Waterman, executive chairman of Big Bus Tours. “This EV expansion is a major step forward in reducing our carbon footprint and enhancing the tour experience for our customers.”

The electric buses in all three European cities will hit the road this summer, bringing the company’s total electric fleet to 51 (just over 10% of its global fleet).

German tour operator FTI is filing for insolvency and canceling future trips

• Copy Link copied

BERLIN (AP) — German tour operator FTI said Monday that it is filing for insolvency protection from creditors, and trips that haven’t yet started will be canceled or scaled back.

FTI Group, which describes itself as Europe’s third-biggest tour operator, said parent company FTI Touristik GmbH, was filing an application for the opening of insolvency proceedings at a Munich court.

Since an announcement in April that a consortium of investors would come on board, “booking figures have fallen well short of expectations despite the positive news,” the company said in a statement.

“In addition, numerous suppliers have insisted on advance payment,” it added. “As a result, there was an increased need for liquidity, which could no longer be bridged until the closing of the investor process,” making the insolvency filing a legal necessity.

The operator said it is working to ensure that trips that have already started can be completed as planned, but “trips that have not yet begun will probably no longer be possible or only partially possible from Tuesday.”

A support website and hotline were set up for customers affected.

The Munich-based FTI Group has over 11,000 employees.
