5.00Excellent afternoon tea with Champagne and tea/coffee. Staff were very friendly and entertaining. Saw most of the "Must See" sites of London on a very comfortable Double Decker Bus.
Nice experience.

5.00This tour is an excellent way to see a small part of London while enjoying a variety of sandwiches and snack food. My wife and I had a seat on the upper level of the bus and had a great view. The only downside is that we had a hard time finding the starting point. Once there, we enjoyed ourselves and would do the tour again. Strongly recommend the experience.
Confusing, get there early !!! But fun

3.00Very confusing pick up location on map and once you get to the bus, it’s not clear on which bus will be yours. Also we had a group of 12 people and half of the group was there at 11:00 for the bus at 11:30. The rest of the group arrived at 11:34 and the bus had already left, didn’t hold it or let the first half on. I paid extra to reserve the top floor for 12 people so wouldn’t they at least try to find those people? The servers were not very helpful, but Luckily my friends spoke to a manager in charge and he was wonderful and got us on the 3:30 bus. It messed up the rest of the day with the plans but we ended up having a great time on the bus and I guess they called in another server to work with the larger party which we so appreciate and servers on the 3:30 bus were fantastic making me feel so special.
