    Definitely recommend this tour!

    What a wonderful experience this was! Only had the day to explore and this tour made it so easy, was very reasonably priced, came with drink and snack, and included the BEST tour guide ever. He chatted and gave great advice on what to do and how to best spend your time! Would definitely go again and refer to friends and family!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much, Billie! We’re thrilled that the tour helped you make the most of your day in Salt Lake City. It’s especially great to hear that you found it reasonably priced and enjoyed the complimentary drink and snack. Our guides love helping guests not only learn about the city, but also figure out what’s worth seeing and how to best spend their time here. We really appreciate your recommendation to friends and family and would love to have you back on board next time you visit!

    Good city tour

    Excellent city tour driver/guide/owner was excellent, complimentary water, tour takes 90 mins only one bus so if you hop off you have 90 mins for next one. Slightly overpriced compared to other cities

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the tour and appreciated the commentary, complimentary water, and overall experience. You’re correct that the full loop is approximately 90 minutes, and guests who choose to hop off have 90 minutes to explore before the bus returns. We also appreciate your feedback on pricing. A Hop-On Hop-Off service is inherently more expensive to operate than a traditional timed city tour because the bus continues running throughout the day and your ticket allows you to ride, hop off, explore, and reboard. Even with that added flexibility, we’re proud to remain the most cost-effective sightseeing tour option in Salt Lake City. Thank you again for choosing SLC Bus Tours and exploring the city with us!

    Good tour,

    Good tour of city, brief history. Very helpful guide, as allowed us time at Pioneer Centre as it was closed on Sunday.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed the tour and found the history and commentary informative. It's great to hear our guide was able to adjust the timing so you could spend a little extra time at the Pioneer Centre while other attractions were closed on Sunday. We always try to make the most of the day based on what's available. Thank you for choosing SLC Bus Tours, and we hope to welcome you back on board the next time you're in Salt Lake City! Best regards, SLC Bus Tours Team

    Great way to experience Salt Lake City!

    The tour was very interesting. I learned a lot about the history as well as the current situation that exists in Salt Lake City which seems to have a positive and promising future. The tour guide did a great job. My biggest complaint is that I had to walk to meet the first stop on the tour and the directions took me to the back of the convention center (parking garage) and I wasn’t alone. I then had to walk an extra 1/2 mile to the front of this sprawling convention center to find where the bus was located (in 95 degree heat). Hopefully someone will get this fixed

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour and found it both informative and engaging. It's wonderful to know our guide helped you gain a deeper appreciation for Salt Lake City's history and exciting future. We're especially sorry about the confusion with the meeting location. Thank you for pointing this out. We've recently updated our pickup instructions to make the location much clearer, and we'll continue refining them so future guests can find Stop #1 more easily without unnecessary walking. We truly appreciate your feedback—it helps us improve the experience for everyone. Thank you for choosing SLC Bus Tours, and we hope to welcome you back the next time you're in Salt Lake City! Best regards, SLC Bus Tours Team

    A Pleasant Suprise Tour

    Had the pleasure of experiencing a brief tour at the Juneteenth festival and it was amazing. Honestly I can't wait to take my family on a full tour. The guide was informative, funny, and fun. Truly appreciate all his hard work. My daughter said it was a 1 Million Star Ride!!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're honored that you chose to join us during the Juneteenth festival and thrilled to hear you had such a great experience. Hearing that your daughter called it a "1 Million Star Ride" absolutely made our day—that may be one of our favorite reviews yet! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We're also glad you enjoyed the tour and found the guide informative, fun, and engaging. Creating memorable experiences for families is exactly why we do what we do. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back for a full tour soon.

    SLC Bus Tours Hop On Hop Off: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Salt Lake City.

    How much does SLC Bus Tours Hop On Hop Off cost?

    +

    Prices start at $55 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Salt Lake City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does SLC Bus Tours Hop On Hop Off take?

    +

    Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Salt Lake City is not rushed.

    Is SLC Bus Tours Hop On Hop Off worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 67 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Salt Lake City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule SLC Bus Tours Hop On Hop Off?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is SLC Bus Tours Hop On Hop Off suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 24-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book SLC Bus Tours Hop On Hop Off?

    +

    Around 23 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Salt Lake City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Salt Lake City and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does SLC Bus Tours Hop On Hop Off start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Salt Lake City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Salt Lake City?

    +

    Salt Lake City is a basecamp: Big and Little Cottonwood canyon hikes and ski shuttles, Antelope Island and Great Salt Lake trips, Park City transfers and Temple Square walking tours. Winter transfer reliability is the single biggest quality signal here. On Outty we rank every Salt Lake City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Salt Lake City Guided Bus Tour, Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square & Salt Lake City Bus Tour, Great Salt Lake Safari - Discover Antelope Island. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Salt Lake City?

    +

    December to March for skiing, June to September for canyon hiking. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Salt Lake City?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
