We could have seen more with the Hop on Hop off bus in Paris and Rome. This trip was hectic. Some of our hotels were in poor locations. Some of the included excursions were silly and simple. Some of the paid excursions had guides with heavy accents and hard to understand. Long bus rides between cities. Too much walking in certain places in hot July weather.
