Traveler reviews
Would recommend Routemaster tour
I have been on two Golden tours routemaster trips this summer. One with family and one with a visitor from Australia. It's a nice easy tour, just over an hour, taking in lots of historical landmarks and famous bridges. We sat upstairs on both occasions and the seats gave an uninterrupted view of London. The guides give you a running commentary on points of interest along the way. We came via Westminster tube, crossed over the bridge and turned left, passing the London Eye. The bus stop pick up point was located on the other side of the little park. Easy to find. Would recommend to all.
Fantastic Tour!!!!
We had a great trip on the 31st July, Andy the guide was amazing! He kept us entertained throughout and his knowledge of the City was fantastic, he interacted with everybody that boarded. I was with my daughter, who also had a great time. I would recommend this tour to everyone. Very surreal being on Routemaster without its classic engine, I hope this can be expanded.
Excellent 1 hour non-stop tour of Central London
Went with young grandchildren so 1hour trip ideal. Excellent commentary by Matthew? Who was very knowledgeable and amusing. Saw all the major sites arouns Central London.
Amazing way to see London’s famous landmarks and learn interesting facts.
A fantastic way to see London’s iconic landmarks! The spectacular views from the open-top electric Routemaster made the tour really enjoyable. Graham, our live guide, was friendly, knowledgeable, and kept us entertained with interesting facts throughout. A brilliant way to spend an hour—we’d highly recommend it!
Anniversary tour trip
We took the tour as part of our anniversary weekend in London. We love to find out about history of London that you wouldn’t know from reading a book.
