The last bus loops usually start in the late afternoon (around 4-5 PM). Be sure to check the timetable so you don't get stranded at a distant stop.
Autumn (late Oct-Nov) and Spring (Mar-May) offer the most pleasant weather for open-top riding. Winter evenings bring beautiful 'illumination' light displays throughout the city.
Recommended for weekends and holidays. For regular weekdays, you might be able to buy tickets on the day, but online booking ensures availability.
Note that while some museums might have free days, the private sightseeing buses generally operate on standard paid tickets regardless of the date.
