We've been taking the Big Bus for a long time. This is the first time we've had to wait so long to catch a bus. We looked at the waiting time on the app, but it kept changing. Also, once it arrived, it could be crowded, which sometimes prevented us from sitting down and/or listening to the audio guide.

Seamless ticeketing procedure online.Wonderfyl!The itenerary has been very well planned with a running commentary it made the tour comfortable and easy to connect with the places we passed by.

Open roof bus is great. But audio guide was interrupted and cut-off many, many times. So information was lost, what you saw driving by. Sometimes it was also not clear which house etc. the guide talked about, as we had passed it already or where not there yet. Or the description was too vague. The audio guide is the added benefit compared to driving around the city with the regular much cheaper bus lines. If the audio guide doesn't work properly, the tour is not worth its price.

Love the ability to use the hop on hop off at many locations. Just a bit muddling as to where the stops were , that is which side of the street you get the bus . Also the blue is a bit too long fir one ride.

Got to see alot but it was the hottest day of the year and it was very hot on top. We did come prepared with hats and water. However the English haven't invented aircon yet so it was very hot when we had to sit downstairs. I can imagine it would be freezing in winter.

being able to cover all the major attractions with flexibility on choosing which one to see and where to get off. different routes (red and blue) help as well in terms of some planning for the sights the river cruise was excellent (with the weather being great as well on the day) One issue that we encountered was that the frequency would vary for the buses and the app at times wasnt that helpful.

It was very convenient. The drivers were so helpful any time I had questions. Would be nice if buses were air conditioned or windows opened more.

The sights of London. However, we noticed that there were no many Red route buses in comparison to the Blue route buses. We had to wait at Hyde Park corner for over 20 minutes for a Red bus, but 4 Blue buses came & went in that time.

Jul 2024Verified booking
The bus tour was great, it included the main sites to visit and the application with the whole route and stops is very helpful. I'll suggest to find a common stop to connect the 3 routes (green, blue and red) to enjoy a full trip. Also, the cruise for the Thames river was only one way, we thought it was a round trip and that we will return to the same place we started to continue with the hop on hop off route but had to walked some time to go back and start again the route.

The map you have on your website is no longer accurate so we waited around for several busses to get on the ORANGE line and it no longer exists. With everyone using technology today, you should update your map on your site.

Jul 2024Verified booking
It was good to see the attractions and have some info about them. Unfortunately the map we got with our tickets was out of date so we wasted a lot of time looking for where to catch the bus. Once we got the bus we had the up to date version and could work out where to go.

Easy to order online, only issue was confirmation e mail stated photo I'd required to relinquish tickets. I had no photo ID. Contacted the help chat and was reassured this was not needed. Plenty of buses available good commentary, friendly drivers. Loved driving over Tower bridge.

We checked in for the first time and the driver simply waived us back and did not direct us to the earphones. We had to figure out the audio system on our own. It was a hot day and the downstairs if our bus was stiffling; once we moved upstairs it was better. Tour was good once we got deleted in; explanations on the audio guide need to be updated now that there is a new monarch in place.

We had a great time on our London hop on hop off tour with Big Bus. The addition is the one way Thames River cruise was a really nice addition although some of the information for this could have been easier to find on the websites. The bus tours were good except that some of the stops near Picadilly were changed because of detours and we didn't know about this until the bus was driving off route according to the map. We ended up getting off and course correcting ourselves. The commentary on the bus is pre recorded which was informative and fine but know that it does repeat some of the facts at different points.

The bus had issues with several of the audio outlets and at leas six of the plug-in boxed did not work around the seats I had. The 1:35 hr trip took nearly 4 hr due to traffic problems (no fault of the bus/service)...😕

Good experience, too bad that you cannot track the bus location through the app and consequently cannot estimate how long you are going to have to wait for the bus. It would also be helpful if stops that are temporarily not in use were displayed in the app.

Nice tour with good audio explanations, audio quality very good. We were able to see all the important sights from the comfort of the bus. The only thing that was a bit annoying was the 20 minute break not mentioned anywhere towards the end of our last trip when the children were already tired and hungry

Excursion was good. It rained that day so the bus windows fogged up. Some of the audio connections didn't work in the bus. Also we expected the half covered top busses but didn't see any that day. Saw them next day

Easy to book, mobile ticket is an awesome feature to avoid printing hard copy of tickets. The blue tour was excellent, goes through all important sites. The only one tiny issue to fix is to make your top floor seats waterproof. Cheers, Salah

Easy to find the locations, happy about the routes. Only thing is would have had more information about London and it s details in the audio guide. I wish less music was played in the audio guide and added some useful information and history about each location or general information about London.

We booked for 48 hours and the first day was good but the 2nd we want to take the yellow line and from Big ben to Picardy circus all venues was closed so we walked on venue after the other on and finally never took the bus and lost our money !! 4 of us. When we finally see a bus and talked to them about it, nobody was awared of it (green line) they were having conversation via walky talky and it seems to be a suprise for everybody... No notice on the apps... a lost of money and time, unfortunatly time is very important when you travel, gain customer always the one who pay for it.

Great going on the route, but the music playing on the headphones wasn't great. And it would've been nice to have each building pointed out and what it was. But recommend.

It was great to see all the Interesting spots in London. Hop on - Hop off allows to see and visit the places in a relaxed way. With the app it is easy to find the bus stops and to know when the next bus might arrive. This is the only topic which should be improved. Information on bus arrival was not relyable and sometimes busses did not arrive at all.

I loved the itinerary and the flexibility of having several buses on the same day. I didn't like the website where I bought it, because I would have liked to have bought 48 hours and I ended up buying 24 hours because of a bug in the app.

We liked the tour but not the traffic situation in London. Not your fault though. The guides and the staff on stops were excellent and helpful. It wasn't possible to only mark the first box so that is why we ticked the second.

The possibility of using 3 lines with 3 different routes.The yellow line certainly the most interesting, the blue line also very good because at some stops it allows you to change with the yellow.

We were a party of four - two adults ( I am British) and two teenagers 13 & 15, all from Canada. We were very pleased with the route(s), the drivers and their assistance, generally the experience on-board was a good standard .... BUT ... the audio we all felt was very poor. Very little history of the London landmarks we passed, too much music which was irrelavant to the trip, the personal feelings &/or experiences and thoughts of the commentators was unnecessary, for example when near Buckingham Palace and heading towards Victoria the male voice said " well actually i don`t like parades" - similar words to that effect......!!!!! After half of the trip we turned off the audio because it was felt to be of no benefit at all. I would be interested to know if anyone from your sales or customer services team had taken the tour from the respect of being a tourist and wanting to know historic information about London. In fact does anyone really and honestly care which school David Cameron`s daughter went to.....? Your comments would be interested to receive, or indeed please telephone me 07946 589123. Best regards, John Calder

The buses are pleasant and fairly frequent. The staff are very friendly. My suggestion would be to add more information and anecdotes and to describe the building in question. The little notes of humor are great.

Whhhhyyy do I need an app just for the ticket?!?!? This is stupid!! I had them added to the specific toot bus app, but then they weren't offline available. We had to search for WiFi to get the app etc. For foreign tourists who don't always have data on holiday, this is really dumb, sorry. For on the bus: stop playing music between the information. We missed half the guide content, because we kept taking off the headphones because the music was so annoying. Other than that. Nice buses, good schedule, good routes and most of all: incredibly kind staff. They really save the whole experience.

Nice long rides, we were able to see a lot in London and most drivers super friendly, like the one on the green route. Only minus point the earphones for the audio did not always work correctly, some really did not work and on others the nr jumped back to "1" so to english.

Friendy ground support staff. Drivers always smiling and welcoming in any connection. The weather was not good for me, but it has nothing to do with the Toop. I had an opportunity to see and get information about the places and monumet. I will have more time to contonue to the green line, and night seen site to London including walking tour.

The routes were thorough & timely. Ticketing was easy. There was a bit of an oops with the audio on one bus. Another item I would hope you might be able to change is that while in traffic awaiting the next sight/stop, that more historical stories be told instead of playing music. The same songs were played over & over. Also, the volume between music & story telling was significantly different.

We were in a hurry, for the first time in London, so the bus experience was PERFECT for our needs. We got to see a lot of London historical sights, even though we would have loved to go much more in depth (next time!).

The views from the open-top level of the bus were amazing, and the complimentary audio was a nice touch. Booking the tickets was straightforward; however, it was a bit confusing figuring out which bus to take since there are several "hop on, hop off" companies operating on the same route. Additionally, the ending time was unclear, and after waiting 10 minutes for a bus, we were informed it would only be going to one more stop. As a result, we ended up having to walk 40 minutes back to our rental.

I did enjoy the bus tour. I did want to share that on your website and even on the actual bus stop - it says that your bus stop begins at Green Park Station. You do not stop there at all. Please make that correction so others do not waste time waiting like we did.

Hello, it was very nice with the bus. Unfortunately, we didn't have a map of the bus stops at the beginning and we couldn't download one from the app, so we wandered around London. A nice supervisor from another bus company then helped us. The boat trip was great, but without a German guide. Bye

Bought tickets online and saved 10% but your pick up at green park was non existent even though it had it in the sign. So we waited 30 minutes for nothing and had to walk pretty far for pick up instead of right across from the hotel. Other than that which was quite important to us because of my husband's hip, it was good

The route and the bus travelling mismatched which caused lot of trouble in planning our trip. The drivers were rude and unhelpful and racist. We were given a bad treatment and were literally pushed out from bus. It was so bad that we had to take a cab to go to our hotel rather than find a right bus in the evening. The river cruise trip included was also single side and not return and we were not informed which made our life difficult as we were stuck on other side assuming we will be dropped at starting point. Imagine going through this with an eight year old daughter with you throughout the day and her experience with such bad behaviour. It was a vexing and tiresome experience.

Do you regularly skip stops? We wanted to get off the bus, however he never stopped to allow us the oppotunity at a stop. Poor service. I'm sure he was just trying to end his shift early.

1. The HOHO bus stopped and waited for long periods., thus spending a lot of time sitting in one place. Then should depart a stop as soon as passengers have got off and got on. 2. I uderstand that route may be changed to avoid traffic congestion etc, however the stops shown on map did not match with actual - e.g Green Park. 3. We had stood at a stop (no 12 on map) for approx. 5mts because the sign board at stop clearly said " City sightseeing" and the bus just bypassed us!. Stopped about 100 mtrs ahead. By the time we reached the bus had left. then it took another 15-20 mts for next bus to arrive. Updates like this should be informed. 4. While the bus drivers in general were courteous, one (of black ethnicity) was rude when replying my query re changeover stop for blue from red bus. They need to be reminded that customers pay their wages.

I responded earlier but seem not to have the option for the negative feedback from the overall good experience. On the first day we waited for 45 minutes at the British Museum, but the bus never showed. We caught the bus later at the hotel. Also, pollution seems higher on the top deck and in traffic. I often had to clean black soot out of my nostrils after a bus ride, and our family all caught colds after our first two days of bus rides. We came again for another one-day and had similar pollution problems. The Edinburgh ticket worked nicely, and we stayed out of the rain as well. We did not use public transportation there.

Easy to book from New Zealand and easy to catch in London! Staff near the stop at Marble Arch were very helpful and we enjoyed the ride. There were a couple of long delays at a couple of the stops but that was fine.

The tour with Big Bus was well organized. There were staff at all the stops who helped us, but sometimes we had to wait longer. London Eye and the Thames trip were well worth seeing. Absolutely recommendable. Small point of criticism The guide on the bus tour could have been a bit more informative. It was playful for children.

Headout had all my Big bus tickets ready for me to save in my Walket for easy access and showing at the bus ticket stops. Great service on the London hop on hop off and very helpful guides for queries. Only problem was the long waits between buses but that's city traffic for you. Fabulous experience and definitely consider using Headout again to book future excursions.

It was a great package, but it was difficult to always find the right organizer on site. It was also not clear that you should only use the specific things from the specific provider. Unfortunately, we lost a lot of time as a result.

The London Eye was a great experience for us (including 2 children). We found everything easily and we were lucky that the queue wasn't very long. On the Thames river cruise afterwards, we got on halfway because we thought it started right next to the London Eye and so missed the first half of our paid ride. Nobody pointed this out to us either. A more precise starting point would be important to mention here. And the bus ride was ok, unfortunately it was actually pointless in parts due to a lot of traffic. We stood there for about 1.5 hours without seeing anything new. But we couldn't get off either because we were too far away from the other routes.

The driver didn't follow the route in some cases and moreover at the bus stop near Buckingham palace we had to change the bus 3 times - we spent there (at one bus stop) more than 30 minutes because of changing buses. It was very chaotic and the staff was unpleasant. Everything else was great. ;)

Hop On - Hop Off is brilliant. Not only for exploring but also as a means of transportation. The texts are informative and entertaining. The Thames trip is a must! London Eye too. What we didn't do were the guided walks - we did enough walking as it was

I liked the start very much. Christmas hats, good help, pleasant atmosphere. Only after the start, tour guide kept talking continuously, did not keep his mouth shut. That resulted in us not listening at one point, and thus missed the most important information about the beautiful spots. I think a tour leader could be more concise in his narration and there are silences too.

Very good visit ! we stayed there for a little over 2 hours to tour the site and explore the different rooms. There is a lot to see and it is very interesting. Opportunity to see the Crown Jewels (which is the reason for our visit) but everything else about the tour is just as amazing ! You will be able to see for example: the White Tower, the ravens, the Chapel, as well as different exhibition rooms which give you a lot of explanations... all with a view of the Tower Bridge.

Booking via the app is very simple and straightforward. Admission to the respective buildings was quick and uncomplicated for us. At the Tower of London, you could buy an audio guide on site (in our local language) so that you could learn something at the various stations if you didn't take a guided tour. Tower Bridge was interesting. There are a few steps to climb. The view from the top is good. The engine room was also interesting. To see everything as it was built back then - hard to believe. There weren't the same possibilities back then as there are today.

We enjoyed the experience. There was a lot to see. It was very well done and made the history very interesting. I have always been interested in the British monarch history ever since Junior High School. We took the audio tour which was well worth it. We were a little confused with the ticket purchasing. We thought we had to be at the Tower of London for a certain time but didn't realize the ticket was just to get into the facility which included the crown jewels and the tour which we thought we needed to get there for was only for outside the tower and not inside. We rushed to get there on time only to find out that the tour was not really necessary and the audio tour was to us more valuable. It would be good if the process of buying the ticket explained a little more about the tour and the option of the audio tour.

It was just unfortunate with the road closures and the diversion down vauxhaul as it took a very long time without any tour info. It was a decent day out and my son was able to have a little nap so that was ok. Would be nice to have more staff interaction on the bus though. Other hop on hop off buses had a guide on the top. Perhaps I just needed to read better next time.

I have noticed that the buses do not operate as often as those of other companies, which has been quite inconvenient for my travel needs. Could you please provide information on whether there are any plans to increase the frequency of the services? I believe that improved schedules would greatly enhance the overall customer experience.

The cruise captain should have his own comedy show! The historic information mixed with humor made for a fun cruise that was entertaining. The onboard food and restrooms were a plus! I would definitely recommend this for first time visitors! Also.. good photo opps!

I really liked the experience and the fact that it included the river trip. The only thing is that I felt cheated with the tours. No one had told me that they were without a guide. You had to go on your own. Anyway I recommend doing the bus route and the Rio tour.

I found the audio guide very funny. But we were not informed that the red line was not available every day. At the Tower of London stop, after waiting the bus left without stopping, leaving a number of customers stranded and we had to wait for more than 20 minutes. The frequency of buses on Monday was so low that I opted for the public bus.

Bus ride was fine except for the drop off for Ferry as it was at one end of the bridge while entrance to the Ferry was at the other end and so we had to walk. It would have been better to have the dropoff at the Ferry end itself. Further, timing details of the ferry were not provided and so we wasted quite a bit of time waiting after arriving at the ferry terminal.

We liked the ability to get on and off. However, changing from one color route to another was very confusing. When asking for help we did not receive definitive directions. I think it would help to indicate what routes are available at each bus stop if not all colors stop there, especially after the Thames boat ride.

Very good tour to get to know the city, especially if you have little time. It has the plus of the boat ride on the Thames, with a local guide, if you know English better and if not also because you enjoy the tour. I did it at sunset and it was magical.

The staff were great, a easy way to get around London to see the sights. We were disappointed with Trafalgar Square, as it was fenced off and the traffic to that area was terrible. The city cruise was amazing with the live commentary was fantastic best part of the tour.

I thought the drivers were very courteous. I thought the people outside were very courteous. However, I thought the bus was pretty dirty on top and the audio guide boxes were dirty also. I did like the woman doing the narration. She was very entertaining.

We had trouble finding the right stations as they were moved because of construction issues and closed streets. We were left in a station where no bus came for 1 hour and had to take a taxi in the end. The Wi-Fi was not available on most buses.

Everything was fine. At the very first moment I didn't know where to go as the instructions say that the Point 4 is in Waterloo Station but it's hute and you don't tell the exactly Point At the station.

The audio guide (German) was usually out of sync with where the bus was. I therefore often didn't know which sight the guide was referring to. In addition, explanations were often interrupted in the middle of the text and new explanations were played. We heard some texts several times at different points of the journey. The generated German voice on the green route is difficult to endure, so we switched to English. In the English audio guides, the guide's station numbers do not match the map provided.

The tour included 3 buses with numerous stops. We went to a couple of stops to catch one bus in particular and waited over an hour at the stops. The bus was said to stop every 20-30 minutes and it did not. We wasted an entire afternoon of our trip just waiting for bus stops.

Frequently asked questions about Hop-on Hop-off London tour
What if I’m only in London for a short time? Is a Hop-on Hop-off tour still worth it?
Absolutely! If you’re short on time, a Hop-on Hop-off bus tour is one of the best ways to maximize your visit. The multiple routes cover major landmarks, so you’ll get a complete overview of London’s must-see sights without feeling rushed. Plus, with buses running frequently, you can see more in a day without spending extra time figuring out transportation.
Do I need to reserve my seats?
No need! Hop-on Hop-off buses don’t require seat reservations. Just show up at any stop with your ticket, and hop on board. The top deck is usually first-come, first-served, so if you want those prime seats with a view, arrive a bit early!
What’s the best time to start the tour?
Starting early is key to making the most of your day. Catch the first bus around 8 or 9 a.m. to avoid crowds and fit in as many attractions as possible. With early mornings often being less busy, you can enjoy a more peaceful start to your adventure and have plenty of time to explore each stop along the way.
What if the weather changes? Are there covered seats?
Yes, most Hop-on Hop-off buses offer covered seating on the lower deck. If it rains or the weather turns chilly, you can easily head downstairs and still enjoy the tour. Of course, London’s weather can be unpredictable, so it’s always smart to bring a light jacket or umbrella just in case!
Do Hop-on Hop-off buses have wheelchair access?
Yes, these buses are designed to be accessible. They have dedicated spaces for wheelchairs, making it easier for all visitors to enjoy the tour. If you have specific needs, let the staff know—they’ll be happy to assist with boarding or answer any accessibility questions you may have.
How do I know when the next bus will arrive?
Most Hop-on Hop-off operators provide a mobile app with real-time updates. You can track your bus, see the estimated arrival time at each stop, and even check for any route changes. It’s super convenient and helps you make the most of your day without waiting around!
Can I bring a stroller or pushchair on the bus?
Yes, strollers and pushchairs are welcome on the Hop-on Hop-off buses! Since London is best explored with the family, the buses are designed to help make your journey smooth. Just remember that space can be limited, so collapsible or smaller pushchairs are easiest to manage on board.
What should I bring along for the best experience on my tour?
For the most enjoyable trip, consider bringing a few essentials: a camera for capturing London’s iconic landmarks, some water to stay hydrated, and comfortable shoes for when you hop off to explore. And of course, keep your smartphone handy to track buses and follow route maps via the app.
Do I need to book in advance, or can I buy tickets on the spot?
While you can sometimes purchase tickets at the bus stop, booking in advance is recommended, especially during peak seasons. This way, you secure your spot, get instant confirmation, and can access any added perks or discounts that come with booking online. Plus, it helps you skip any wait times and hop right on to start exploring!
Can I bring luggage on the Hop-on Hop-off Berlin buses?
You can bring small-sized luggage onboard the sightseeing bus. Big suitcases may not be permitted due to space constraints.
