Vintage bus tour with boat ride
Alan, the tour guide made it loads of fun. The tour guide on the boat portion was equally great. This experience exceeded our expectations.
Good way to get an overview of London
Bus was clean, driver was safe and guide gave a lot of good information about London. Cruise on Thames was nice, although we had to wait in a pretty long line. Commentator on river cruise was entertaining.
Wonderful tour!
Fantastic scenic ride throughout London. Got to see all the top spots and learn a little bit about each. Stephen and Eugene were great! The river cruise was also a wonderful way to see more sites from a different perspective. The whole family really enjoyed the tour!
