    Burgh bus
    Derek P.

    Such an awesome time and attraction right here in our own city. Bus is a modified school bus, for all Intensive purposes it's still a school bus just looks cooler. Comedian was funny and a fun time. Dr ver was great and safe. They provided IC and light beer which is iconic to the area. Definitely a must do if you are in town, either local OR from out of tahn. Lots of local trivia and bus takes you thru many neighborhoods.

    We rode The Burgh Bus for a family friend's 65th birthday and had an absolute BLAST! Matt was an awesome host and it was the ultimate Pittsburgh experience. Highly recommend for locals and visitors!

    Fun experience for a group of friends celebrating a birthday. Comedians made it entertaining and interactive. Parking at convention center on Penn ave was easy. Or better yet Uber! The bus stops once half way through the journey for a bathroom break. So pack a cooler and go!

    The ONLY way to get to Star Lake. Picks you up at the lower lot of the Incline, drops you off at show. Picks you up afterward, drops you off at the same lot. Avoid ALL traffic. Reasonably priced, book in advance. Friendly folks riding, music turned up! Will DEF be utilizing this service again for future Star Lake shows.

    So much fun! Whether you are a tourist or a yinzer this is a must. We were celebrating a friend's birthday and we were able to get a decent amount of tickets just a few days prior. It's BYOB which is amazing. They are sponsored by IC Light and they give you complimentary beers. My husband was beyond thrilled. The comedians were hilarious and entertaining, but the crowd on the bus was rowdy and it was difficult to hear them. They definitely need make a mid stop bathroom break!!! Drinking adults cannot hold their bladders. Worth every bit if $35 a ticket. We will for sure go again !

    A sad little bus ride.

    1.0 star rating 8/21/2022 A comedy tour bus is fun idea, but the Burgh Bus wasn't successful in implementing the concept. Alleged comedian Connie Dusak was ill-prepared to lead the tour. She was the last person on the bus, and she scrambled to sort a pile of papers on the podium as the bus took off from the bus stop. After some paper-shuffling, she landed on one yellow page of hand-written notes, and she read about a paragraph of content. This was the best few minutes of the tour, but she couldn't keep up with the pace of. the tour and the disorganized notes, so she abandoned the script. Connie spoke from a podium facing the back of the bus, which further illustrated her lack of preparedness. She identified some landmarks when they came into her view, which meant they were often beyond the view of the forward-facing passengers. When she pointed out landmarks, she described seeing something "on the left" when they were on her left, but on the right side of the bus as viewed by the forward-facing passengers. Connie wasn't particularly funny, either. She tried to make humor from holding up a photoshopped image of Fred Rogers holding up his middle finger, and when her first attempt didn't work she kept on trying without success. As the trip progressed, the music got louder, and the muffled commentary became more difficult to comprehend. After the "potty stop" in a warehouse parking lot on the South Side, we just sort of gave up on listening to Connie. It wasn't worth the effort. This is a BYOB bus ride, and it seems that arriving with an elevated blood alcohol level is an essential component of the ride. If you run out of alcohol, they sell more at the potty stop. However, the level of intoxication required to enjoy this ride wasn't advisable for our 1:00 p.m. departure. It's a sad little bus ride. Travelers who don't need to travel with an open container of alcohol will find a good guide book and a $7 Pittsburgh Regional Transit day pass to be a better alternative.

    My sister in law booked tour stop tickets for us to do the tour. We were excited because it would…read morelimit the collective driving and parking issues at various stops. Everything is ridiculously vague. The pick up location indicated one area outside the Fairmont Hotel, but there was no signage and a very helpful valet pointed us to the pickup location. We were in place over 10 min early with one person still monitoring the other designated stop just in case, but that didn't mean anything because the "pickup times are approximate." We waited about 25 minutes and figured that the bus running over 15 minutes late seemed a bit extreme, so my SIL called the company. Apparently the bus came and left from who knows where and we never even saw it despite being able to see clearly down five different streets. Our next option was to wait over an hour for the next bus, but the person on the phone couldn't provide the exact bus pick up location, which made waiting pointless if the bus was not going to be at the advertised location. We ended up sightseeing on our own.

    We had a good time with the hop on, hop off tour. It really did bring us around the city, and we…read morehad time to enjoy our stops before being picked up again. Our first tour guide did a great job letting us know what had been filmed in certain areas, but not so well with telling us what someone might see or experience at different spots. Our second guide, Ren, did a great job with that. I wish she had talked about the giant art fair that had been going on through town though. (Although, maybe she did when we weren't on the bus?) We didn't have any issues with pick up or drop off. We got to see the Duquesne Incline, Randyland and The Warhol Museum. At one point we did stop at the tour companies headquarters - I would advise you not to make the same mistake I did and get sunscreen.

    Initially, I was very hopeful and excited when I hired Antique Coach Excursions for my wedding…read moretransportation. They offer a cool and unique service. During the planning process, their team seemed to be very thorough as they gathered information from me and our wedding day plans. I was expecting superior service. I am disappointed to say that I did not receive adequate service on the day of my wedding, and it caused my wedding ceremony to be delayed by 30 minutes. The charter was 30 minutes late picking up the first group from Hotel Monaco in downtown Pittsburgh - and in-turn was late for the second trip. The company made no efforts to alert me or my planner that they would be late. This delay affected all of the other time sensitive vendors. For example, the string quartet hired played through the 30 minute delay, but then was unable to stay for the entirety of cocktail hour that immediately followed the ceremony. When I brought my disappointment to the attention of the company - they blamed traffic and parking. However, there were three other charters (one other from ACE) waiting on the same street well before my charter was set to arrive. So one of their clients received adequate service and one did not - both paying the same amount of money for their service. I wish my charter had been on time so that he could have secured a spot like the other from ACE. The response from the company was that the lateness was beyond their control. While I understand that sometimes delays happen, they offered no apology or partial refund for inadequate service. Even with timestamped photos, the company tried to minimize the delay instead of taking responsibility. I would not recommend this company.

It comfortably fit all 35 of us with room to spare. Company was incredibly easy to work with. Mary Ann graciously accommodated all of our requests, responded promptly to all of my questions, and (unbeknownst to us) allowed our wedding crew to decorate the inside of the bus with streamers and balloons. This last bit was a total surprise for my husband and I. Getting on the bus for the first time that day, seeing all of my loved ones having fun, and realizing that they'd decorated is one of my favorite wedding day memories. Our driver (Alan) was friendly and professional and, considering how old the bus is and how bumpy Pittsburgh streets can be, the ride was very smooth and enjoyable. Guests absolutely loved the bus, and we were glad we didn't have to worry about our out-of-town guests having to navigate around Pittsburgh on their own on such an important day.
