Review of London’s two-hour panoramic bus tour, with Big Ben, Tower Bridge, audio commentary, open-air views, value, and booking tips.
“There was consistent confusion regarding the 2 Hour Tour with this Company. We never did find anyone who knew of the 2 Hour Tour so we were given the two one hour Hop-On, Hop-Off tours, the Red Line and then the Blue Line. The tours themselves were very good and we enjoyed them but I would not promote the 2 Hour non-stop tour if there isn't one that exists.”
