★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 977 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $40

Review of London’s 90-minute night bus tour, with illuminated landmarks, live commentary, practical tips, pricing, weather advice, and booking guidance.

“We chose a terrible night to do this tour. It was freezing cold and rainy which, of course, was outside of the tour companies control. What they could control, they did amazing! Our tour guide Steve had the odds stacked against him but he did such a good job! He still brought the energy and excitement and did his very best! This tour is a great way to quickly see the city on limited time.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 245 reviews · 1.5 hours · from $43

See London’s Christmas lights from a restored vintage bus, with live commentary, landmark views, practical tips, and an honest value review.

“Tour started at Gate 0 at Victoria Coach Station where Premium Tours staff were there to book us in and allocate us to our bus. There were several lovely Routemaster London busses lined up. It was part-open on top which made for great views but was chilly so wrap up warm. The guide was entertaining and very informative pointing out what to see and where to look. My only negative comment was that the speaker system wasn't great and it was a little difficult to understand the guide at times but this didn't really spoil the tour for us at all. At least we didn't need to use those horrible…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 135 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours 10 minutes (approx.) · from $43

Review of London’s Christmas Lights Tour by vintage double-decker bus, with route details, costs, cold-weather tips, and honest advice.

“We reached the meeting point at Victoria Coach Station in time. There was no gate information available with the booking, but figured out that it would depart from Gate 0. The vintage double decker was lovely and we took up seats in the covered bit at the top, which give some respite from the horrible rain. The guide was very knowledgeable and funny. We went through most bits of London known for the Christmas lights. Most impressive were the angel lights, Oxford Street, Regent Street, and some shops with amazing Christmas themed windows. It was a lovely tour which finished in time (could take longer in bad traffic) and we…”
