Fun

Very entertaining ride in a beautiful vintage bus. The guide (Will) was very likable and explained everything wonderfully. If it is warm, definitely take drinks with you.

Great way to see the highlights in London

Great way to see an overview of London. My only complaint was that it’s advertised as 1 1/2-2 hours and it’s really closer to 50-60 minutes. Our guide was great though and the open top double decker was a fun experience.

Overview of London without stopping

We were happy to find a double decker bus tour that was NOT hop on-hop off. Sometimes the stops were called out when it was too late to get a good look at them, but overall nice coverage of London and time well spent. Our tour only ended up being 1 hour long.

Experience itself was great. Our tour guide was really good. Very engaging in knowledgeable. However, we had a change of plans at the last minute where one of our group was not able to attend, and the company would not even give us a partial refund despite the fact the tour operator on the bus told us that we would. We also tried to contact the tour operator via email. No response when I contact her later, they would not accommodate

The tour was fun! We learned a lot and riding around London on a classic red route master bus was great. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and nice and took the time to answer our questions. Would recommend!

What a perfect day for this tour

We got the chance to see more of the city than if we would have walked and we got to hear about some of the history of the city while enjoying a sunny morning on the upper deck of the bus!

Great tour for London sights

Great tour, guide was knowledgeable, had interesting tidbits to share. Much better than an audio tour, comfortable seats- a fun ride!
