Booking FAQs

This experience is wheelchair and pram/stroller accessible. Wheelchairs cannot be larger than 70cm wide, 120cm long, and 135cm high. You can contact the operator if your wheelchair exceeds these measurements, and they will assist you. Each bus can only accommodate one wheelchair at a time. If there’s already a passenger in a wheelchair on the bus, you may have to wait for the next one.

Before you begin your tour, please head to Stop 1 (The Bourse Building) or Stop 5 (Reading Terminal Market) to receive a validated paper ticket from an official sales agent. Once you have this paper ticket, you can hop on and off freely at any of the other stops on the tour. If you've purchased a paper ticket directly from the Visitor Center, you can start your tour at any of the stops and don't have to head to Stop 1 or 5. Stop 1 (The Bourse Building) marks the start and end point of your tour. We recommend starting from this point so you don't miss out on information regarding detours and inaccessible stops. Please note that the bus does not automatically halt at every stop along your route. It only stops when there are people waiting to board or if you inform the tour guide about wanting to hop off.
