DO NOT USE THESE GUYS. Audio tour is pretty much non-existant (it went past Parliment House saying NOTHING!!), so swapped buses to a live tour and had one good real guide but also had a terrible guide on 3rd trip who spent more time talking about himself and cracking awful jokes then giving any facts. I live in London and... more

I brought my visitors on the big bus tour thinking it would be great for children. Well, they made us get on and off at several stops with much waiting time between buses. We had 5 children with us who were not happy. At Hyde Park, we were told to get off the bus, get in a queue and then... more

I’ve only just recently moved to London and am not quite a pro at tourist attractions yet, so when I had family coming to visit for the weekend we decided to do the Big Bus Tour. We chose Big Bus over the Original Tour because they had live commentary instead of the audio headsets. Well, this isn’t true for ALL... more

Well, let me start off by saying that we bought this bus trip probably more for the walking tours and river trip than the actual bus tour. We bought our tickets at 6pm on our first night in and joined the Ghost and Gas lamp tour. (Not that it got dark at all - it stays light so late in... more

Date: Fri 23rd May 2008 Review: Having looked at both the "Big Bus Co." and "Original Bus Tours", we chose the "Big Bus Co.". At £24 per person it was a huge mistake, although I do wonder if the alternative would have been any better? The staff were friendly enough at the sales centre (naturally) but when we got to... more

The Big Bus Company is definitely the BEST way to see London. I took the bus tour on March 25th, 2008 expecting it to be just a typical drive with some typical guide, anticipating that he would have the enthusiasm of a two-toed sloth. I was happy to be proven wrong. It was a cloudy and windy first day in... more

My experience with The Big Bus Company of London was not the best one. It happened on 16th of March 2008. I tried to take part of the walk tour that started at 10:00 at Trafalgar Square. It was raining and quite cold but the prospective to see the guard change at Buckingham Palace was fascinating. I arrived at Trafalgar... more

On my last trip to London I tried the Big Bus Company for some new information about London, but unfortunately I was very disappointed. The staff of the Big Bus was very friendly, but on the tape of the bus are too little information about the places of interest. The "authors" of the tape tried to accentuate their information with... more

With a day to spare my friends and i decided to use a bus tour as a way of seeing the whole city. We paid £19 for our tickets, got the green line bus to meet the red and blue buses which would bring us around the city. We were dropped off at a bus stop with 10-15 other passengers... more
