If you search this forum you may find the post I recall from someone who liked that option in Edinburgh. I remember it because a lot of HO/HO comments are negative. I believe the poster made the point that Edinburgh is a hilly city (true), so having access to the HO/HO buses was often welcome.

When we were in Edinburg in 2010. We got on the bus and bought tickets on the bus. I believe we caught it by waverly station

You can buy them that day. No need to buy in advance.

If you want to save some money, buy a Day Ticket for the regular Edinburgh buses, and hop on and off at will.
I think it's 5 pounds for a 24 hour ticket.
Then you can see a lot more than on the tourist buses.
There's a phone app too, so you can plan routes and see realtime schedules.
