Hospitality at it’s best!
Elizabeth_M
, Aug 2022
We had 24 hour Hop On Hop Off London bus tickets for a particular day.. Due to slow traffic on the M4, we got into London later than expected. We got to the last bus of the day just in time. The ticket taker let us on, but told us we could activate it within a day of the date. He let us ride, but told us to activate it the next day so we got a full day! Everyone was so very nice each time we rode, all I had to do was show the Viator ticket, and they just waved us on. We were given free earphones for the commentary. Seats were fairly comfortable both on top and bottom of the bus. You do have to watch the map carefully, as the stops are not announced or displayed.

You don't always get what you want
DawneMarie_E
, Jul 2022
The tour operators were very personable and friendly. The tour, itself, was not what we expected. The bus was not air conditioned and we were in a heat wave at 36 C. The audio recording was out of sync as to what we were passing by. I suppose, they figured we wouldn't notice that, since we were tourists. At the very least, they should have welcomed their guests on their bus, ran through what was to be expected and shown their appreciation that we had booked with their company. Not impressed. I have experienced many much better organized bus tours.

London Tour
TheresaDavidson
, Jun 2022
The tour is fine, you get to see all of the sites, but they do not have enough busses on the road. For every one Golden Tours bus, there were three to four of each of the other similar tour busses, and the wait for a Golden to pick you up can take well over an hour.

Almost a scam!! Don't Take it!
MaraIgnacia_A

inglés (EE.UU.) A very bad experience! The audio guide did not work on the first bus, on the second bus the audio guide was totally out of sync with what we were seeing. Very rude drivers and the staff was never able to help us. We consider it almost a scam, I do not recommend it, do not waste your money!!!!

WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY! Bus did not have a person on a speaker announcing anything. You have to ask for these headphones but the headphones were not in sync with where we actually were! Asked the driver if I’m going crazy or if the headphones are talking about different landmarks than we actually were passing by and he sheepishly admitted to me they were out of sync. I stayed on for maybe 10 minutes and did my own thing.

Fantastic tour of London. Definitely the best way to see all the famous landmarks. The tour guide really made it for us…’Anna Banana’ (Spanish) was so knowledgeable, engaging and included everyone on the bus. She was really good fun!

Excellent audio tour of the city of London
Bablo

Excellent audio hop-on hop-off tour of the city of London. The ticket operators were very helpful at the Westminster Bridge starting point. My lady friend and I got to see Tower Bridge, St Paul's Cathedral, and crossed the River Thames multiple times to take lovely pictures. She had a great time. The bus driver was also very helpful with resolving our pre-booked ticket issue. Thank you Golden Tours. I will book this again.

Hosts and drivers were very courteous and helpful with directions and suggestions of places to eat, etc. We did have a travel snafu waiting for a bus transport that did not arrive when expected to. We took a taxi back to our hotel because we were tired of waiting for it to show up,

I was disappointed that there was a person talking over the microphone instead of being able to listen through the headphones. Also disappointed that the last bus left so early I would have preferred to tour around a few more hours but the last bus was at 4:30P. Overall the bus driver was friendly and the bus was clean and comfortable.

The first bus was fine the speakers worked all new equipment. But the Internet on the bus didn't work. The second bus we again sat on the top but even though we tried a number of connections none worked. The buses move so slowly because of the traffic that it would have been faster to walk!

Melissa J
, Jan 2016
Kidzania was AMAZING but warning: the bus doesn't run to the bus stop near Kidzania throughout the day. This was not communicated at any point in the transaction, and cost us valuable site seeing time that we expected to have on the bus. Due to this extreme in convenience, we had barely any time left to use the bus we asked customer service if we could have a pass for another day, since we were not able to use it either of the 2 days we paid for, and they said no. While each activity alone is good, I do not recommend trying to combine these two activities, which is why I'm giving 1 star.

Principe du hop on hop off très pratique, 4 lignes faisant différents parcours mais un guide seulement sur la ligne bleue, possibilité de suivre dans sa langue en audio direct avec des écouteurs fournis, nombreux arrêts sur tous les parcours, attention derniers trajets à 17 heures.
