Amazing park and palace experience! - The top view park and palace walking tour was an amazing experience. We saw many interesting buildings, statues, reliefs, and palaces as our guide told us many facts about them. We watched the changing of the guards from a good spot that our guide brought us to. Our guide, Tom, was very informative and made our tour really enjoyable. We were also very lucky to be able to watch the reenactment of the English Civil War. Such a great activity to do!! Thank you, Tom!! 🤩🤩👍🏻👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great for seeing all sites in the City. - The stops are great. A good way to get around London and see all the sites. Top view sales rep Mohammed Mohsin was very knowledgeable and helped us to reserve all our tours by downloading the top view app for us as we were having issues getting a barcode. He gave us suggestions on which routes to take first. He was very very helpful to us Americans in a city we are unfamiliar with.

Excellent Tours With Owen - We had Owen for both a guided bus tour and the walking Jack The Ripper tour. I can’t say enough good things about Owen! He was informative, hilarious and included our thoughts, opinions and conspiracies on the tour! The moment I stepped on the bus tour he was reaching out to ask about where I was from (it completely caught me off guard) and made sure to make us feel welcome. Whatever they pay Owen should be doubled! An amazing city made even better with a more amazing tour guide! Thank you again Owen! Jordan from Maine

Jack the Ripper Tour - Today at 4:00 PM, we joined James for the Jack the Ripper tour in London, and it was great! James is very knowledgeable and shared many interesting details. The tour was interactive, which made it exciting. Although the tour was in English, and it was a bit difficult for us as non-native speakers, James was very understanding. He answered our questions and made sure we could follow along. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I recommend James as a guide. Thank you for the wonderful tour!

Great tours of London provided by Owen - We had an incredible experience with the 48-hour Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour, River Cruise, and Walking Tours in London! The highlight of our trip was our tour guide, Owen. His engaging commentary on the bus was both entertaining and informative, bringing the history and landmarks of London to life. Owen also led us on the Jack the Ripper walking tour, which was absolutely fantastic. His storytelling skills and deep knowledge of the history surrounding the infamous case made the tour both chilling and fascinating. He kept everyone captivated throughout, blending historical facts with a touch of suspense. This package is a great way to explore London from multiple perspectives—on land, water, and foot. Whether you're visiting for the first time or revisiting the city, it’s a fantastic choice for seeing the sights and diving into London’s rich history. Highly recommend!

VERY INFREQUENT & INCONSISTENT - AVOID THIS COMPANY. If I could give them zero stars I would. We had an entire day ruined trying to catch their busses that only run once per hour. It’s much worse if you are trying to connect from one line to another because the one hour schedule isn’t even coordinated and the drivers are clueless of the ETAs. They just tell you to get out and wait. While waiting you see multiple busses from all the other more reputable companies driving past you. AVOID THIS COMPANY.
