Hop on hop off is definitely the way to go to see all the sights. In only 24 hrs, though, it's hard to spend quality time at everything, so make sure you plan ahead. Only bad thing was sometimes were were waiting at a bus stop and we would see 3 or 4 tour buses from another company come by before one of ours showed up. Not sure what the price difference is, but something to consider as other companies may have more frequency.

I went with my two sons to London for a few days. This package gave us a great overview of what to see, and the guides were very informative. It was easy to hop off and back on because the buses ran frequently.

This was a great way to see most of the London highlights. The tour included a cruise on the Thames, which is, without a doubt, a great way to view the city.

Excellent. It would be better if one could make ones initial boarding at ANY of the stops. A larger scale internet map would also help.

The trip was really LONG! It was great to be able to hop on and hop off everywhere that we wanted to see and avoid paying for taxis.

This is a very good way to get an overview of London. Should do it first so you have an understanding of the city.

We really enjoyed the tour. It covered the main areas of London that a traveler would want to see. The buses were frequent and the commentary was good. We really enjoyed the Thames cruise. My only complaints are that some of the buses stopped running around six o'clock and we would have liked to have had longer. Also, some of the headset outlets on the buses didn't work, but overall it was excellent.

The tour was definitely worth the money. There were two negatives. First, one of the drivers drove too fast, and he didn't give you time to take pictures. Second, while I was touring London, I discovered that another tour operator offered 48 hours instead of 24 hours, and they gave a free "London Pass" that allowed you to get in, free or at a discount, to many local attractions. All this for only 1 pound more. It was cheaper for children.

This is a great way to see the sights of London with children. Even on a grey damp day, it was a lot of fun, and I would recommend it to families.

I would give it four stars, but I lost my pass and the company keeps NO records. Otherwise I recommend this tour if you can start early and go the entire day in the summer where the wind is not as cold, and when you have time to do the river cruise in the early evening. This could also be better if it was actually 24 hours since the bus operates from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
