Date: Fri 23rd May 2008 Review: Having looked at both the "Big Bus Co." and "Original Bus Tours", we chose the "Big Bus Co.". At £24 per person it was a huge mistake, although I do wonder if the alternative would have been any better? The staff were friendly enough at the sales centre (naturally) but when we got to... more

The Big Bus Company is definitely the BEST way to see London. I took the bus tour on March 25th, 2008 expecting it to be just a typical drive with some typical guide, anticipating that he would have the enthusiasm of a two-toed sloth. I was happy to be proven wrong. It was a cloudy and windy first day in... more

My experience with The Big Bus Company of London was not the best one. It happened on 16th of March 2008. I tried to take part of the walk tour that started at 10:00 at Trafalgar Square. It was raining and quite cold but the prospective to see the guard change at Buckingham Palace was fascinating. I arrived at Trafalgar... more

On my last trip to London I tried the Big Bus Company for some new information about London, but unfortunately I was very disappointed. The staff of the Big Bus was very friendly, but on the tape of the bus are too little information about the places of interest. The "authors" of the tape tried to accentuate their information with... more

With a day to spare my friends and i decided to use a bus tour as a way of seeing the whole city. We paid £19 for our tickets, got the green line bus to meet the red and blue buses which would bring us around the city. We were dropped off at a bus stop with 10-15 other passengers... more

Hey folks, we are American Expats living in London and we take all our visitors on the Big Red Bus Tour - I've done it MANY times. We usually start at the Victoria Station Location. No particular reason, just like that starting point. If you speak English, make sure you get on a LIVE GUIDED tour. The live guides are... more

I have a long story to tell but the basic complaints are they do not have enough buses, bad sound system, employees on the buses that do not care and are very misleading. They just want you to get on the bus and shut up. The only employees that were helpful were at the Big Eye Stop which you pass... more

We were in London in Sept. 2007 and booked a tour with the Big Bus Company. We experienced 3 tour guides, one of whom was excellent, one was average, and the other obviously hated her job. So, you may get a mixed bag with this tour. We also had to wait longer at stops for the Big Bus while there... more

There was almost always a guide at one of the stops to help us choose where we were going. Got to know some of the guides who were lively and who were always happy to run into us for a second or third time. Used the bus as our main transportaion in London -and My Mom is 70 years old.... more
