A Spooky Spectacular - The Big Bus Halloween tour is definitely worth going on , it was a great tour on a spookily decorated bus. The commentary was fun and the host Nick was great. Even though I live in London and know lots about it, me and my daughter loved hearing the stories.

Fantastic trip around London, by night - Steve and the team were very informative; would highly recommend. Great to see all the London sights by night. Wrap up if going in the winter; fantastic views but could be chilly.

Halloween Big bus tour - We did the Big Bus tour Halloween special last night and it was fab! Our guide Phil was spot on, he recited so many stories and facts about London, we certainly all learnt something! My children aged 10 & 13 were hoping it might be scarier with characters on board but all in all a great evening out, thank you!

Halloween bus tour - Julia was a great host for our Halloween bus tour. Good fun, lots of ghost and gruesome tales. The children (early teens) were amused and enjoyed themselves.

Solid spooky fun! - We did the Halloween bus tour as part of a short break to London. It was chaotic to say the least at the bus stop before boarding with everyone jostling to get on whilst a long queue of standard tour customers also waited for their bus to arrive. Once on board though, the fantastic guide Phil took us on a hilarious and gruesome tour of London. It was also amazing to see London lit up at night form the top deck of the bus. A great experience and I would highly recommend.

Not what was advertised! - Not what was advertised! - We booked the Ghost tour on the last night of our 4 day stay, having walked the majority of London we thought it would be a great way to end our trip with some ghost stories and some unknown facts about our favourite places. Unfortunately there wasn’t anything ‘spooky’ or Halloween themed about the tour, apart from the bus decorations, the guides knowledge was good for a standard open top tour, but very disappointing to be told only one brief story and a quick pointing out of white chapel. The rest of the tour seemed to be focussed on getting good pictures, which again is fine, but not when a booking has been made specifically for a Halloween tour. Save your money and go elsewhere.
