Overall rating

4.3 / 5

based on 5,308 reviews

As with many other tours I had booked with Get Your Guide, this combination of visiting London by bus and visiting the London Eye was very convenient. For a first discovery of London, I loved it. In addition, if you get out of a Big Bus to continue a walking tour, there is no difficulty in taking a new one. The Big Buses have a very good rotation in the city of London, which greatly facilitates travel over the 24 hours granted by the ticket.

Need More Time

This was a beautiful site to visit. It was very crowded to get in and line for those with tickets are super long. I only wish the time for fountain show was displayed so I manage time better. The Garden (maze) is so big it will take a while to get through and the show ended at 4p before I could see it all. There is a restaurant in the garden that's hidden with great food plus FREE Wifi. It was a nice break from all the walking.

Perfect way to discover all the highlights of London in a short time (3 days)! Night tour is highly recommended. Friendly staff and lots of entry and exit options. Top!

Be aware of the first and last bus so that you are not stranded.

Recommended for a visit to London to get a first overview.
