Hop-on Hop-off London Bus Tour

Create your own London sightseeing day with a Golden Tours hop-on hop-off bus ticket. Open-top views and stops near major attractions let you combine a panoramic ride with time exploring on foot. Audio commentary introduces the landmarks as you travel, with live guides available on selected departures. The different routes connect central sights, museum areas and other parts of the capital. Choose your ticket duration and check the river-cruise and walking-tour extras included with that option before booking.

Discover London's landmarks by bus, river and on foot

Use the Classic route for central London landmarks, the Essential route for areas including King's Cross and the parks, or the Museum route to explore around major museums. Hop off when a place interests you and rejoin a later bus. Look out for sights such as Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, St Paul's Cathedral and Tower Bridge along the available routes. Commentary helps explain the history behind the views. Where included in your chosen ticket, add a one-way Thames cruise or a Royal London or Jack the Ripper walk. These extras offer another way to explore beyond the bus.
