Brighton Open Top Bus: A Great Way to See the City! - Charlie was a star! We really enjoyed our open top bus tour of Brighton. It was a fantastic way to see the city and get a feel for the place. Charlie, our tour guide, was brilliant. She was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and made the tour really fun. We learned so much about Brighton's history and culture. Highly recommend!

Wonderful tour of Brighton! - We took the bus tour last week and it was brilliant! We was on the bus which had live commentary by Charlie. Charlie was a wonderful tour guide, informative and entertaining! We stayed on the bus the whole time as we wanted to listen to the live commentary, but if we had more time, we definitely would have done the tour again and got on and off at the different sites! You also get discounts at other attractions which are really good. Will absolutely be going back to the hop on hop off bus when we visit Brighton again!

Great way to see & learn about Brighton - Great tour, took about 1-hour to do a circuit. Had a wonderful lady who gave us a live tour as we went around. She was incredibly knowledgeable and made the tour fun and engaging. A lovely way to get around Brighton on a sunny day. And the tour ticket allows you to travel on local buses too if you want to explore further

Best way to see Brighton - We took the City Sightseeing Tour around Brighton today. The weather wasn’t great so although we sat upstairs we sat under the sheltered bit at the front. The tour lasts 50 minutes and allows you to see Brighton and Hove in a great way. It’s a hop on and hop off service and we choose to get off at the mariner for a wander before getting on again. Our bus had a live commentary delivered by the lovely Charlie, much nicer than just listening to a pre-recorded description of the area and the bus was driven well by Alan! It’s a must for all visitors to Brighton!
