Hop on

The value is great. The pick of which route you want is good. The bus stops can be an issue. The bus stops are busy with sometimes all 3 lines and other hop on hop off bus brands there. Otherwise we had a great time.

Good value for the money.

This was the most affordable of the hop on and hop off options. We were able to see all the sights. The recorded commentary didn’t work on one of the buses. But hearing live commentary from Anna on day 2 made up for it.

Great way to see the London landmarks

Clean and tidy bus, great way to see London. There were headphones for information however we weren’t told where they were when we initially boarded the bus. This was a shame as we initially thought the headphones randomly placed and used by others were all we had and there weren’t enough for all of us. However we did see new ones at the front of the bus as we hopped off! It would’ve been beneficially to of have been told when boarding for the first time.
