Quick way to see everything. - It's a great way to explore the city, if you're limited on time. We did the route on the bus, then decided where to hop off and on again, the 2nd time around.

bus hop and off citysighyseeing - Too bad you don't provide the available bus stops and their exact location, we've wasted a lot of time finding them ,as well as the passage times.... Otherwise interesting route to see the iconic monuments of London

Ok when we got to tower of London - It was OK when we actually found the beginning of the route and the bus . The routes never stated where started or where they stopped

Bus was great, river cruise ok. Unfortunately last one on not great views for taking pictures. Scan code problem - Because did not have scan code missed bus and had to call for it. However did get through and all was resolved. Very nice customer service.

Good introduction to London - Enjoyed a nice scenic ride through London today, and the weather mostly cooperated. The driver maneuvered on several detours, and kept pace . Audio could be improved, but was as good as other operators we’ve experienced. My only negative was a lack of signage at stops with regard to the number of the stop. This lead us to missing our first attempt to catch a bus. Overall I recommend this activity especially when arriving in London.

F....... - Probably the worst hop-on hop-off service there is. Choose another one with more buses — we waited 50 minutes and had to get off in the middle of the route, somewhere we didn’t want to be.

Hmmm NO! Here is WHY! - Be careful before booking one line. I did not know that several companies offer the hop-on-off service. Apparently, this company bus didn't go close to my hotel, and I waited at the stop until another driver told me that this company was not stopping where I was standing. Sadly, I did not see the company bus or ticket sellers all day. I saw my maps so that I could catch it either. Very disappointed, it was too elusive to find. So my rating of them is based on this fact: I did not see anyone representing them as I saw other carriers. I was so frustrated by the experience that I asked for a full refund. Hopefully it will be given. I purchased the ticket via TripAdvisor. Never again!
