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.

The hop on hop off was easy. The staff was nice and helpful. We had 1 issue with a headset jack, but beyond that, everything was easy.. There was a bit of confusion about which app was appropriate for the day, but once sorted, it was helpful. We really enjoyed the live commentary on the boat. The Hyde Park stop can be a little confusing...we were dropped at 1 spot and picked up at another

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.
