We took the bus tour as a way of visiting London with friends visiting from Slovakia We liked the choice of routes but were disappointed that the bus did not go close to Buckingham palace . We especially likedthe river cruise with its commentary . It was a very busy day with very heavy traffic at times which made progress along the routes.very slow. Overall it was a good way to see the main sites of London but due to the time we had to get off the bus at paddington so could not complete the blue route.

Good circuits, pleasant customer service. Having some upstairs option undercover a good idea. Having a pick up outside the station very helpful. On the bad side: Low quality ear buds, some brand new ones not working. Some sound outlets also not working, meaning that you have to change seats to get a working outlet. This email is incorrect as we did NOT book a river cruise as time did not permit.

We had a fantastic time with the Tootbus hop-on hop-off and Thames cruise combo! The boat ride was absolutely stunning — a true highlight of our London trip, with beautiful views and a relaxing atmosphere. However, the app wasn’t updated, so the bus didn’t stop where we expected at times, which was a bit confusing. Still, overall a great experience and highly recommended for first-time visitors!

I really enjoyed it because I got to see effortlessly and indeed breezily all the most beautiful things in London. The only thing that didn't always work was the correspondence between the audio guide and the monument or place to see. Otherwise super recommended.

We got to know London's historical heritage, modern London and the diversity of its culture in an uncomplicated and detailed way by bus. We were able to hop on and off, for example to take a closer look at Westminster Abbey. We could also have taken a trip on the Thames. The information was very good and was offered in all languages. The headphones were provided free of charge on the bus. The bus drivers were all very friendly, as were the information staff at the individual stops. A city tour on the Tootbus is highly recommended.
