Traveler reviews
Brilliant Tour
The tour was a great experience and provided very informative insights about the sites to see around Brighton. The maps were really helpful to navigate. I found the price reasonable, especially since it offered discounts at many different sites around Brighton. The 2-day ticket was excellent value. The first time I took the bus tour, it was raining, so I couldn't see much, but I was able to go on the tour again the next day and enjoy it properly. The buses were not too crowded, which made the experience comfortable.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Tour and Outstanding Driver
We visited Brighton from London for the weekend and decided to take the Brighton & Hove City Sightseeing Tour. From the friendly staff at Brighton Pier to the excellent tour itself, the whole experience was fantastic. A special mention goes to our driver on the 12:30pm tour from the Pier. At Lansdowne Road and York Avenue, a car and a double-parked van created a very difficult situation, but the driver handled it calmly, professionally, and with great skill. Watching him safely guide the bus through such a tight gap was genuinely impressive. The driver was modest when I complimented him afterwards, but he deserves recognition. A real credit to Brighton & Hove Buses. Highly recommended!
We loved everything about this
Great prices and great way of seeing Brighton. 12 hop on hop off stops including major attractions. Ticket valid all day unlimited use. The lady driver we had was awesome and friendly ( blonde sort hair, lots of tattoos and piercings - Sunday 31st May)
Great day on the red bus Brighton
Really enjoyed our day using the bus to reach all the destinations of interest. Busses ran on time and drivers were really friendly and helpful. 5 stars!
Fantastic Experience — Michelle Made It Exceptional
I didn't expect to enjoy Brighton City Sightseeing as much as I did, especially after living here for a few years, but it genuinely gave me a new appreciation for the city and the multilingual audio guide shared curiosities about Brighton I still wasn't aware of. The driver was absolutely brilliant — I believe her name was... Michelle? So friendly and welcoming from the moment we went to her for more info. She wasn’t pushy at all, and we found her really informative, kind, and trustworthy. Her driving was buttery smooth, which made the whole tour feel really relaxing and effortless. You could just sit back, enjoy the ride, and take everything in without a single worry. The ticket is also great value, with unlimited bus travel for the full day plus discounts on local attractions like SEA LIFE, Volk’s Electric Railway, GLOBALLS crazy golf, Brighton Boating, and places like the Royal Pavilion and Brighton Museum. Honestly, I'd recommend it to anyone — locals included! It's such a nice way to see Brighton differently.
