REVIEWS

"Really good tour. We loved that we went past Buckingham palace and over tower bridge. Commentary was very good."

The Original Hop on Hop off London Bus Tour (1) J.Duncan - Aberdeen - 10/02/2024

"Bello! Un buon modo per vedere la città soprattutto se è la prima volta, come ne mio caso, anche se è un po corto come orario e quindi nn sostituisce la metro. Ai bambini è piaciuto forse anche perché il tempo è stato sempre bello......con la pioggia..... chissà."
