Christmas lights with my family was so much fun! - What a cool trip. A little bit cold but I was cozy and felt all Christmassy. London is amazing, the lights awesome. I particularly found the app useful, one of the best features was finding the stop and the map, but super easy to use and navigate for a ludite like me! Alex was a good commentator, he was funny and likeable and worked hard at it, microphone could be a bit louder. All round fun tour, thanks Big Bus we will come again.

Ella, the your guide, was fantastic - Ella (our tour guide) was absolutely fantastic! She made the Christmas Lights Tour such a brilliant experience. She was so knowledgeable and funny - highly recommend! The start was a little chaotic getting on the bus but it was a Saturday, the traffic was horrendous and generally incredible busy but we didn't wait long before we got on a bus.

Good views - Was an amazing tour however there was traffic so had to wait 45 mins and the tour started one hour after it was meant to due to the buses being stuck in traffic from previous tours. The staff were lovely and hosted a great tour.

Not disability friendly. - We're on the six o'clock bus waiting for over 45 mins in the queue. I have a disability and was struggling to stand so spoke to any of the workers who told me to go to the front of the queue. When we got there he said that only I could board the bus my friends had to go back to the end of the queue. Their attitude was not helpful and quite rude. The bus finally departed at 7:15. The guide Phil, however was excellent!

Terrible! Do Not Do Big Bus London - Terrible. Tour was super late and did not have enough buses at the time of the trip. Waited over an hour past start time (8pm start but wasn’t there till 9pm) actual tour was standard looking at lights in London. Overpriced regardless
