There is something for everyone in London, whether you are into sports, theatre, history, art, fashion, architecture - the list goes on! From parks to palaces, museums to monuments, boats, banks and bridges, there is so much to see and enjoy in this Great British City.



Your adventure begins when you first hop-on one of our open-top double-decker buses. The main route is the Yellow Route. The Yellow Route journey starts at Victoria and sets off on a tour around one of the most famous and popular cities in the world. At Bus Stop 4 you may wish to hop-off and take a walk around Hyde Park - one of the largest parks in London - a very vibrant and enjoyable place to walk through, whatever the weather!



The 3rd Hop-off point is a must - both the National Gallery and Nelson's Column are situated here, and there is also the visitor centre in Trafalgar square. Once you hop back on-board, you will be taken down towards the river Thames which is a real hot-spot for attractions. Bus Stop 5 also has superb sights to see: London Bridge & The Shard, HMS Belfast, Tower Bridge, and The Tower of London. Downing Street, The London Eye and Big Ben are some of the many other sights you will see on the way to Victoria. Book online today and start planning your trip to London!
