Great tour of London. Started at London Eye and had an actual tour guide on our first bus, who was brilliant. (Wished all the buses had this as the ear phones were ok but an actual knowledgeable person who added a bit of humour, was excellent.)
Throughout the day we got on and off at clearly signed stops, and we eventually did the whole blue tour. Would definitely recommend. Good value for money at £30 per adult for 1 day trip.

Tim was a fabulous in person tour guide! Moses was a great driver. Our other 2 hop on buses did not have live guides and that was a major disappointment. Very uninteresting drive without live guides.

Not a good experience. No way to know when stops aren’t in service. Customer service no help. Navigation app completely wrong. What a joke. Use a different bus service! Save yourself!
