Very worthwhile experience - Very worthwhile experience let's you see many sights although briefly unless getting off the bus. Saw many landmarks and took the cruise which was good from a different perspective

London City sightseeing hop-on hop-off. - One of the best trips I've had in a long time. Buses were timely and on spot! Covered most of the landmarks in London city and along the banks of Thames for a fair price considering the fact that I didn't even have to pay for my 2 under 5 kids. I would highly recommend the city sightseeing hop-on hop-off bus and looking forward to having more experiences with them.

See it all in a day! - The bus is a great way to see all the top attractions in a shorter period of time. I like that you can pick and choose where to hop off and spend time and the busses run frequently enough you don’t have to wait long when you’re ready to move on. The recording is very informative.

Happy Traveler - This is a great way to see the city when you are there for a day. Drivers were very helpful. The Thames River portion was excellent.

Perfect if you go a few days - Perfect option if you go just in time to visit the most emblematic sites of the city. Super fast and intuitive to book and great to be able to get off and get on at any of the stops according to your interest.

Make sure you’re at the right stop to catch your first bus - It would be nice to have better location info about where the stops are located. We ended up at a stop that wasn’t on the City Sightseeing circuit and didn’t figure out for 20 minutes that our stop was around the corner. That was frustrating.

Don't bother. Take the tube. - Not impressed. The selected (unavoidable) routes through central London mean that you will spend a lot of time sitting in standstill traffic. The included commentary is stupid, childish and does not inform you about much of anything.

City Sightseeing Frustration - After being dropped off for a visit at St Paul’s Cathedral there was a road closure so bus routes were changed . No agent was there to redirect, so we ended up walking to the next pick up which was the London bridge by following traffic . There was no response when I tried reaching the operator . It was FRUSTRATING and EXHAUSTING. After finally making it to the next stop the bus driver was very sympathetic though .

Not the best hop on bus service; Very confusing - Very confusing and disorganized hop on bus service. The confirmation i got when i booked it didn't have any instructions for catching the bus. We walked around asking until we figured out how it works. They should provide better instructions on how to catch the bus or at least a map.

AWFUL! - Paid for a 48 Hour Bus tour plus the Thames River Cruise. When I tried to hop in the bus, the Tripadvisor showed my trip as "Passed". I contacted customer support, they provided a second barcode that didn't work. The very rude Operator didn't allowed us in the bus. Tripadvisor denied my a refund! I had to appeal to American Express to finally get my money back!
