Was able to see all the best parts of the capital in a short amount of time whilst enjoying the open top views on a beautifully sunny day. The commentary was also helpful.
Thames River tour was awesome! Excellent tour hosts who provide a wonderful description of what you are seeing. Big Bus tour was good but there are many many more buses from other tour companies that pick up passengers while we waited for the Big Bus. We got off at one stop and had to wait one hour for a Big Bus tour bus to come back to pick us up. This prevented us from getting off at stops in the city as we were concerned that we would not be picked up and would not see the remainder of the blue or red route. We thought we had the evening tour included but our tickets printed "does not include night tour".
The best thing to do is to buy tickets for the tour from the vendors located at the stops. You receive good information and treatment, considering that we seniors do not always speak the language.

Ricer trip was great & crew superb, wonderful commentary The Big Bus tour had lots of off route time due to so many toad works around the Museum area & did not go past Buckingham Palace due to road works. At Tower Bridge there were no busses for more than 1/2 hour - staff said all the buses were bunched together. When the bus arrived it was too full to get on so we waited another 10 minutes for the next bus. Meanwhile loads of the other competitors busses went past. It's a lot of money to not provide a regular service, would not recommend Big Bus & would try another company next time
The lady at the St. Paul's Cathedral bus stop was fantastic. She was the best part of the experience! We booked online, but she was still incredibly helpful even throwing away my rubbish for me. And HOHO buses are always a fun way to see a lot lazily.
Seeing the city atop the 2nd level was great. The audio didn't always match up to the sites. Better. Communication of stops is needed, particularly on the later afternoon runs. We had to take the tube to get back to our hotel as the bus ended the route before we were back at our stop.
It was very difficult finding some of the stops/pickup locations even after asking several "agents" where they were located. One was busy on his phone and just pointed "over there "& another, also on his phone pointed to a completely different location, both annoyed with being interrupted. This caused us a lot of running around & missing busses. Also the blue bus in particular seemed to cross over one of the bridges multiple times causing us to sit in traffic for long periods of time. I would take cabs next time. Much more efficient and costs less.
Very good for getting an overview of the city when you're short on time. Signposting and map to find stations could be improved

This specific bus line, although there are many, seems to have the most stops and covers nearly every inch of the city. The drivers seem to have magical powers to get the bus through the very busy traffic and narrow streets of London. Easily a half day ride perhaps more if you ride the entire main loop. Multiple days if you use it to get on and off at stops.
Hop-on Hop-off Bus in London – Summary The Hop-on Hop-off bus is a convenient and flexible way to explore London’s top attractions. These open-top, double-decker buses operate on multiple routes, stopping at landmarks like Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Tower of London, and the London Eye. Unlimited hopping – Get on and off at any stop along the route.
We learned a lot about London's history.

View original review in French
We thought the commentary was poor. Not enough information about all the sights. I understand you are catering to a broad band of customers. But we learned little about London
I liked everything, however at the time of booking you should make more emphasis on the fact that the hop-on hop-off Bus Tour company is Tootbus.
View original review in Spanish
It would be better if you had a human guide pointing out what you were talking about. On a crowded bus it was hard to tell which building the guide was talking about or even where in the route where you were. No one announcing or display of what stop you were at so you could keep up.
The experience with the bus was very good. Not so much with the cruise that was included.... According to the indications that came in the reservation the cruise departed and arrived at the same destination. But no... they made us get off at the last stop and pay again to return to the port of departure... a robbery...
View original review in Spanish
The bus and the commentary were generally very good. However, compared to other hop on/hop off buses, the buses arrived infrequently and very irregularly.
View original review in German
The routes are good, the staff are friendly. Unfortunately, sometimes long waiting times and the inaccurate object description... sometimes it is unclear where the object is located. Otherwise satisfied. Thank you!
View original review in German
Due to the extreme traffic the three hours turned into five which included an unexpected 1/2 hour stop to change drivers. Maybe put this changeover could happen in a spot where there is something for the passengers to look at or to buy some refreshments. We were kind of stuck on the bus for the 30 minutes without anything to do.
It was great being able to see the iconic features of London. The bus tour was a long one and we needed to plan for just a couple of stops a day. We loved the Thames boat cruise. We had perfect weather to see so many different places.
Long wait between 2 buses (2 times 1h) and the audioguide is very short compared to other competitors.
View original review in French
The price was great. We saw the whole of blue line which was 3 1/2 hrs. Great view of the city and short spurts of history thru headphones. River cruise was a different perspective of the city by water. The guide was funny on the water cruise. Tower of London was the 2nd day for us. We stayed about 3 hrs and did the guided audio tour. We really enjoyed it. Always nice to find deals on vacation to save a buck or two.
I previously gave Tootbus a poor review. However, they have been very good about getting back to me with the problem. Apparently the problem is with who I bought the tickets from which was not Tootbus directly Tootbus has been very good about trying to solve my issues. Beware of who you buy your tickets from.
The mixture of an open top bus tour and a boat tour was a great experience! Buying the ticket online was easy and hassle-free.

Great combined ticket for Tower of London + bus + Thames river. Of note : it is possible to embark on the cruise from the Tower of London and the go to Westminster Pier (not necessarily the other way round as indicated).
Buses broke down, route was changed, half the places we could not see, since there was no proper guidance, total waste of my money

We waited more than 20 minutes at a meeting point. We had to change stations to catch a bus that wasn't full.
View original review in French
From where we were situated on the orange line made it very difficult to get to the blue line because of the busses only coming every hour
We waited three quarters of an hour at the bus stop (which was 3 minutes from the hotel) and no bus came. The buses simply changed their route. We then walked to another meeting point and had to wait there for another half an hour. It was about 1.5 hours before we could actually set off. The audio guide information was far too little, the music was annoying and was more than the information in total!
View original review in German
I wait 1h30m in a stop and the bus did't came
I liked NOTHING!!! I felt that you mis-advertised the process. I expected 20 minutes between busses. The truth was there was an hour between busses. I am glad that I realized this early in the morning and was able to us the local busses to continue my trip. I will be writing to the tourist board and detailing my problems and experiences.
Nothing, considering that we waited 45 minutes on Friday, November 29, without a single bus from your company, even though several buses from other UP and off companies passed by. I should point out that I was at the right location, where Golden Tour was well signposted. What's more, this changed our entire stay because we had to take the metro for 2 days, incurring additional costs, and on top of that, they wouldn't refund us. Total rip-off.
View original review in French
I hate the music between the sights. I would much rather have a live guide. Not enough time to get on or off.. bad communication on where we are so we had a chance to get off. At on stop we waited for the yellow route. We even said so to a guide at the stop. We waited 30 min and asked the guide again... then he told us that the bus just left 5 min ago. We were there the whole Tim and no bus said yellow route. Then he said it is called the museum route!! Why do you have the top on the busses say red and blue route and then for the yellow it said museum??? It waisted so much of our time and the yellow route was not even worth the wait.
Everything was perfect and Goldentours is very welcoming. Stops are very easy to find
View original review in German
The route was not as described and then we were told that the journey was being aborted, and that we had to get off and walk and they wouldn't be resuming the tour for several hours. We had 5 young children with us stuck in a very busy part of central London. So we didn't have a great experience because the experience didn't exist.

Especially the boat trip from the London Eye to the Tower with City Cruises was very entertaining, our narrator was a real entertainer! The bus trip was also very nice, hop-on and hop-off worked well, there were always at least 5 languages (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish) available for the audio explanation during the trip, sometimes even significantly more languages. A clear recommendation!

I visited London with my 12-year-old daughter. We had a combo ticket hop-on hop-or bus, london eye and canal cruise. The hop-on hop-of bus is the best way to see a lot. We were able to see many major tourist attractions without walking through the helex city. A ticket combined with a ticket to the London eye is great. What a spectacular view we had of the city and for 30 min! The canal cruise was also wonderful. The guide could tell great stories. Really enjoyed it!

Tower of London
Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour
Ticket booking and admission were super reliable. You should plan enough time for the Tower; this is actually a day program. The jewels are beautiful and can be viewed in peace despite the crowds. The crowds are hardly anyone's fault, as we were there too. Apart from that, the Tower is a great and really worth seeing site with lots of small exhibitions and attractions. Overall, London is impressive. You can't see all the highlights with peace, quiet and a sense of culture and art, and it's better to pay the entrance fee selectively. We would rather come back and would be happy to be your customers again. Many thanks and best wishes to the funny ravens.

Super convenient to book from home. I would recommend it to anyone. Otherwise the queues can be quite long or you don't even get in. Everything worked great and the tower is really very interesting and worth seeing.

Azacquiring tickets was very easy, ditto accessing the Tower of London by simply showing the QR codes on your smartphone. We were able to enter without any problem as much as an hour and a half early, perhaps because it was not too crowded, and we visited the site for about 8 hours, availing ourselves of an audio guide in Italian for only £5 each.

It was a very well organized place. I loved the fact that it is much more than the Crown Jewels. It is like a little village where people (guards) still live in nowadays. Amazing for children as well because of all the attractions and theatres during the visit. Would come back!
The tour was excellent. The history told prior to walking around was much appreciated. I loved the display of the Crown Jewels.

It was very good The queue was crazy long - so would recommend getting fast track - you get to skip the queue and get a drink included
From the main entrance, the whole experience was mind blowing. The kids were absolutely excited. We took loads of pictures with our favourite celebrities. Will definitely be back again. I have recommended it to so many of my friends who were fascinated with our pictures. Nice place to be!
The exhibit. Made it memorable as I got to see some of my favourite actors and got to see one of the Cray twins as well as jack the ripper as well as the extraterrestrial et and got to rock with jimi Hendrix and bob Marley
To be honest I was with my friends from my country they was surprised. He loved everything what we se it inside. We recommend to everyone to visit one time Madame Tussauds.
We were very surprised that all the wax figures are accessible, can even be touched and are not separated from the visitors! We missed Mr. Besn, Michael Jackson, Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts. The Royal Family is the center of attraction! However, the staggered entry means that there are rarely crowds. The 4D cinema is also worth a visit. The cab ride could be a little slower for our taste because there is soooo much to see! Overall, it's a destination that was well worth a visit! The Regentspark behind it should also be visited!

It was my first Aquarium visit, So i thought everyhing was interesting. I loved The tortoise and The jellyfish. I think it would of been Better without The people stoping in random places, blocking The view, to eat. There were 2 places with a bit more space for rest where people stayed like in a picnic place.
Everything in the aquarium was awesome. I was very excited to see creatures. Well organised environment and it has proper ventilation. Security wise was good.
Close up of a shark 👍 and all those underwater animals 👍

Some aquariums were empty and animals were missing but it was still very nice. Sharks, penguins, jellyfish's we had a good time
We spent about 2 and a half hours there. The kids were fascinated and loved it. The best sea life centre we have been to by far

The lady at the St. Paul's Cathedral bus stop was fantastic. She was the best part of the experience! We booked online, but she was still incredibly helpful even throwing away my rubbish for me. And HOHO buses are always a fun way to see a lot lazily.
Seeing the city atop the 2nd level was great. The audio didn't always match up to the sites. Better. Communication of stops is needed, particularly on the later afternoon runs. We had to take the tube to get back to our hotel as the bus ended the route before we were back at our stop.
It was nice but was very disappointed when I found out the penguin enclosure was shut for refurb, do I think it was worth over 70 quid for two people no, way to expensive fir what you get
It was very difficult finding some of the stops/pickup locations even after asking several "agents" where they were located. One was busy on his phone and just pointed "over there "& another, also on his phone pointed to a completely different location, both annoyed with being interrupted. This caused us a lot of running around & missing busses. Also the blue bus in particular seemed to cross over one of the bridges multiple times causing us to sit in traffic for long periods of time. I would take cabs next time. Much more efficient and costs less.
Very good for getting an overview of the city when you're short on time. Signposting and map to find stations could be improved

This specific bus line, although there are many, seems to have the most stops and covers nearly every inch of the city. The drivers seem to have magical powers to get the bus through the very busy traffic and narrow streets of London. Easily a half day ride perhaps more if you ride the entire main loop. Multiple days if you use it to get on and off at stops.
I thought it was too busy and hot for us to really enjoy the experience - not enough big displays - we had to push forward to even see the displays and I don't think it was worth the money.
Fast, fun, and full of city lights, London’s night magic in just 90 minutes.

The bus did not show up at the agreed meeting point. We stood there with about 30 people and none of us received a message by email that the meeting point had changed. Over an hour's wait that day was in vain. Nobody could be reached by phone at this time either. The ticket costs were spent on nothing. I wrote a complaint to the provider 2 days later. The whole thing is now being investigated. The fact is that the meeting point has changed, but no one was informed. The costs may be refunded. Just wait and see! Otherwise, I have received a receipt number as compensation. I can use this to get 3 tickets for free next time I'm in London.

The tour didn't even take place. Nobody was informed. We waited with the other participants for 1 hour at the bus stop. Hotline could not help. Paid money but received NO SERVICE. So far no further information on request or refund of the ticket price received.

We didn't see many landmarks because of the protests, but we did get a great tour guide and a wonderful tour of the city.
Such good commentary with Interesting facts aimed at children and was good to get interaction with the children
We waited for 45 minutes at the meeting place written on the ticket we bought from London Tickets, no one came and when we called the authorities they told us that the meeting place was not there.
