The tour of London is always pleasant, but the bus took very, very long breaks and the initial stop was difficult to identify in the street. I also found the tours less complete than a few years ago.

Ticket purchase was easy & good online👍 with tickets sent to my email. Loved the hopon hopoff buses and the boat trip along the Thames was excellent. But finding the bus stops was tricky without the bus map and knowledge if London. Better signage if bus stops is needed and need to ensure everyone has thebus route map.

Looking around London on a Hop-On Hop-Off (HOHO) bus makes seeing the city easy when mobility is an issue, as it is for my wife. We went around the blue and red loops, which were very good. We missed the green loop due to time constraints which was disappointing; the early buses were doing the loops so slowly, even though there was no traffic and stopping for ages at each stop for no reason, so the loops took ages. Late in the day, traffic became congested, so loops understandably became slow, but the early slow loops meant that our whole day was taken up on the blue and red loops took up our whole day, even though we only got off and on again twice and we got on the first bus of the day and off the last. At the end of the day, we missed the final blue loop bus to take us back to our start point because the red loop bus took so long to get around, even though it skipped numerous stops. We were thankful that we did this in winter; imagine how long it would take in summer when the traffic is bad. It's disappointing that the early buses didn't make the most of the good traffic conditions.

The Blue bus and drivers were never at the stops. Waited 40 plus minutes multiple times. Gave up and walked. The very first driver was a jerk. While waiting 15 min to leave he would not answer questions. When he finally did, he blamed the ticket seller, even tho we bought on line. Rode one Red route and it was fine,

The announcements always come after you have passed the object, i.e. late. The frequency as stated on the internet, e.g. red line every 15 minutes, was not adhered to. Maybe write that in the winter months the buses can have a different frequency.

Hello, I hope you are well. We had booked a ticket for the Hop-On Hop-Off bus on Saturday, February 1, 2025, and were able to start our tour as planned. However, due to the demonstrations on the streets of London, we were unable to continue our tour or take the various visits planned with the bus. In view of these exceptional circumstances, we would like to know if you could offer a commercial gesture or an alternative solution. We understand that this situation is beyond your control, but unfortunately we were unable to take full advantage of the service. We thank you in advance for your understanding and look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully Anaïs Guyaux

1. We bought our tickets on your Headout website at 10:47am on 28th January – your website said the tickets would be valid till 6pm 2. We went to board the bus at 11am and the lady who validated our tickets clearly told us that tour service would stop at 2:30pm for a company event and we should contact the company who sold us the tickets for a refund. 3. That is when I called to complain. 4. We stayed on the bus until 2:15pm – got off at a stop – we did not see any more buses after that and had to take an Uber back to the train station.

The views from the open-top level of the bus were amazing, and the complimentary audio was a nice touch. Booking the tickets was straightforward; however, it was a bit confusing figuring out which bus to take since there are several "hop on, hop off" companies operating on the same route. Additionally, the ending time was unclear, and after waiting 10 minutes for a bus, we were informed it would only be going to one more stop. As a result, we ended up having to walk 40 minutes back to our rental.

There were demonstrations. We had chosen the red route, but a perimeter around the main buildings was closed (on Saturday October 26). In the time it took us to understand what was going on, to find another route and to get to a bus station, we ended up taking only a 15-minute bus ride on the blue route.

Purchasing through Headout was simple, easy and quick. My experience on the City Sightseeing: London Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour with Optional Thames River Cruise was the best choice. We used the Hop on Hop off bus to get around and see the main sights of London. The buses passed every 10-15 minutes at the indicated points and there was always a member of staff to help us. Finally, we took a cruise on the River Thames with a spectacular view of the city.

Due to numerous road closures on the day of the event (September 7, 2024), the blue route was completely suspended and stops 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 of the red route were closed.

The route and the bus travelling mismatched which caused lot of trouble in planning our trip. The drivers were rude and unhelpful and racist. We were given a bad treatment and were literally pushed out from bus. It was so bad that we had to take a cab to go to our hotel rather than find a right bus in the evening. The river cruise trip included was also single side and not return and we were not informed which made our life difficult as we were stuck on other side assuming we will be dropped at starting point. Imagine going through this with an eight year old daughter with you throughout the day and her experience with such bad behaviour. It was a vexing and tiresome experience.

Unfortunately I never got to use my tickets as I was unwell on the day. This was so upsetting for me as it was my grandchildrens birthday and I had paid £148 for these tickets. I asked headout if I could change the ticket to the next day. I was told no. I thought they may of shown some compassion and allowed this. My grandchildren are twins and it was there 6th birthday treat. I cannot afford another £148 to take them again. There should be some information on people who go ill on the day. So they can reuse there ticket.

1. The HOHO bus stopped and waited for long periods., thus spending a lot of time sitting in one place. Then should depart a stop as soon as passengers have got off and got on. 2. I uderstand that route may be changed to avoid traffic congestion etc, however the stops shown on map did not match with actual - e.g Green Park. 3. We had stood at a stop (no 12 on map) for approx. 5mts because the sign board at stop clearly said " City sightseeing" and the bus just bypassed us!. Stopped about 100 mtrs ahead. By the time we reached the bus had left. then it took another 15-20 mts for next bus to arrive. Updates like this should be informed. 4. While the bus drivers in general were courteous, one (of black ethnicity) was rude when replying my query re changeover stop for blue from red bus. They need to be reminded that customers pay their wages.

Today, central London was blocked due to a march, but you were selling tickets for that day (June 1). I couldn't get anywhere. I am therefore asking for a refund of the amount of £64 per ticket.

Easy to book online. Staff waiting for us at all points of embarkment and disembarkment of bus so extremely reassuring and answered all our queries without hesitation and with a big smile! Bus clean and bus driver fabulous. Voice over informative, easy to hear and incredibly well timed! :-) Loved the cruise and lines and thought it was exceptional value for money.

Hello, I am requesting a refund as our tickets were not used because the information for Redemption was incorrect resulting in us not being able to get a bus. The website and confirmation said we could get the bus at Green Park Station. We waited several hours there and a bus did not stop. I am disabled and am very angry. A representative told me via chat the Green Park Station was no longer a stop and to go to another stop to get the bus. That is not an option. I would prefer not to publish a negative complaint, however I will do so if I am not refunded for the booking . I was told a supervisor would call me within 10 minutes. I have not received and do not expect to get a call. Please refund due to the misinformation on both your website site and the ticket confirm. Thank you. Helen Champagne Booking 18486352

I responded earlier but seem not to have the option for the negative feedback from the overall good experience. On the first day we waited for 45 minutes at the British Museum, but the bus never showed. We caught the bus later at the hotel. Also, pollution seems higher on the top deck and in traffic. I often had to clean black soot out of my nostrils after a bus ride, and our family all caught colds after our first two days of bus rides. We came again for another one-day and had similar pollution problems. The Edinburgh ticket worked nicely, and we stayed out of the rain as well. We did not use public transportation there.

My tour was awesome...but a lot of major communications on head out end. If a company works on the assumption that not everybody KNOWS where a place is..and gives real good directions...its a far better and less frustrating experience for users. Try it!!! You couldn't possibly do a worse job than the lack of directions I got. Good luck

I liked being able to hop off and spend time in the various areas on my own schedule. I DID NOT like how hard it was to find the first HOHO bus. I looked for over 45 minutes and asked over 12 people (people who worked in the tourism industry). I was super frustrated. I felt like it could have been avoided if I would have had instructions about where to go or what to look for. The city buses look a lot like the HOHO. A couple of the drivers were ornery.

While browsing for discount tickets for London attractions, I came across Headout and was pleasantly surprised by the tremendously low prices for attractions. I thought it was too good to be true but after reading the reviews, I went ahead and booked the tickets. It was easy to book and all the information was emailed to me. The city sightseeing buses are very easy to spot and have a choice of blue, red and green routes. The 24/48 hour ticket includes the Thames cruise which was the highlight of the tour.

Bus stops were hard to find, waited for one bus (on the green route) for 40 (!) minutes, the audio guide (red route) sometimes was hardly on time, sometimes we've already passed the building... route has been changed. at least the thames river cruise and his lovely captain compensated for all the shortcomings of the hop on hop off busses.

I am still waiting for a reply on a message i sent regarding date changes. Activated our tickets today & bus driver on the blue line advised us the red is 20 minutes away. Once we took off the red was dirctly behind us so she had to let us out at a set of traffic lights. She was extremely unhelpful & rude considering we were also travelling with a child. The bus then stopped at a stop for approximatley 15 minutes while turning on & off repeatedly. We needed to get to the changing of the guards on time so had to get out & get a taxi. We are extremely unhappy with the service revieved & i would like to be contacted for my tickets to be refunded as we will not be using them again tomorrow after our service today.
