Great way to see London. Easy to get on and off throughout the day. We waited 45 minutes and ended up taking a taxi to marble arch to start because we understood a golden tours rep would be there to assist. Without the map and qr code we would have been very frustrated

Don't waste your money and time. Worst tour experience I've ever had. Audio awful. Staff not helpful. Viator not responsive with poor experience.

The bus drivers were mixed with friendly and grouchy drivers, but all the people on the sidewalk bus stops were very friendly and helpful. One day is not enough! Start early, so you can get in a few sites in, while others you can see from the bus.

Seeing the sites in London was very exciting. We learned how to navigate the city to get to the attractions we wanted to visit.

Wasted most of our day waiting on a bus to come by! We waited at one spot for 45 min. One bus that was not full pass us without stopping. We just started walking, 2 miles before we found a stopped bus. When we did get on a bus we didn’t get off to look at anyplace afraid we would get stranded looking for another bus! There were so so many Red Hop On Hop Off busses that stopped where we stood for those 45 min! Bad bad deal….
