There are many of these buses so know which one you paid for and learn the routes/stops. This will save you a lot of time and hassle.

Cancelled Tickets and Baking in the Heat at a standstill.
Trudie_M, Aug 2026
The Hop on Hop off was good, hit all the major spots, but they left us sitting on the bus baking in the sun in 36 degree C heat for over 20 minutes at one stop with no explanation . The Thames river cruise was entertaining and as enjoyable as it could be in 35 degree weather. The London Eye was a total bust. When we arrived for our scheduled time slot we were informed that our tickets had been cancelled. After many minutes with the Lovely people from the London Eye we found out that the third party company we booked our tickets through, still unsure if that is Viator or Big Bus, had cancelled our tickets. They gave us proof that they had refunded the company. We still have yet to see the refund on our credit cards. We were told this has been happening frequently and there was nothing they can do. Tickets were sold out for the remainder of the day. Still hoping for the refund.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Hello, Trudie!
We are truly sorry to hear about the frustrating experience you had, especially during such a hot day in London.
We completely understand how disappointing it must have been to arrive at the London Eye only to find out your tickets were cancelled through no fault of your own.
This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide.
Regarding your London Eye tickets and the pending refund, we want to look into this and resolve it for you as quickly as possible. Please contact us directly.
While we are glad that you enjoyed the Thames cruise and found the staff at the location helpful, we sincerely regret the inconvenience caused regarding your tickets and are committed to making things right.
We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Long stops on bus

The bus was not very comfortable and the driver did not interact with us at all. Frequent long stops without explanation.
The Eye, however was amazing!
I might try a different bus company next time.

Fab day out
Nicole_D, Aug 2026
We so enjoyed our day trip to London, everything went so smoothly.
The bus trip took us to places we wanted to visit.
London eye was Amazing!!.
We travelled with two very Anxious children and this experience was so easy for us .
We are planning to go again October for Halloween 🎃
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Hello, Nicole!
Thank you for sharing your honest thoughts with us.
It’s wonderful to know that your time at The Eye was a highlight!
At the same time, we are very sorry to hear that the bus tour left a poor impression. An uncomfortable ride, a quiet driver, and unannounced delays are certainly not the standard of service we strive for. We have flagged your feedback with our route management team to ensure our drivers communicate better during unexpected traffic stops.
We truly hope to welcome you back on board on your next trip to show you the 5-star experience we’re known for!

Hello Gillian! We truly appreciate your review. It's wonderful to know that you had a great time on your tours with us and found all the information you needed on the app. We look forward to seeing you again soon! Best, Ana from Big Bus Tours.
Buy directly from Big Bus London
CarolLynn_A, Jul 2026
It is best to buy this tour directly from Big Bus London directly. My Viator tickets were not valid and the nice guy at the big bus stop was able to reissue tickets. If we had gone to a stop that did not have a rep from Big Bus we would not have been able to use the tickets readily. Avoid the hassle and buy direct.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for sharing your experience.
We're pleased to hear that our team member at the stop was able to assist and get you on your tour. However, we're concerned to hear that there were issues with your initial booking, as guests should be able to access their tickets without unnecessary complications.
We appreciate your feedback and will share it with the relevant team for review. Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your experience, and we hope you enjoyed the rest of your visit to London. 😊🚌Alex@BigBusTours
Needs a lot of improvements
farhan_s, Jul 2026
Bus is great but information is not reliable. At one place it said blue route will start at 1030am. But later we found it started at 8am. Bus routes are very slow and it doesn’t tell his much time so u end up missing lots of opportunities. If that info is available people can plan the trip better. We wanted to change the time for London eye. But despite spending a lot of time on on live chat and emails it didn’t work.
Advice to people. Be careful when u buy tickets. It gives u very little information about actual time required and places close at 5-6. DO NOT LOSE YOUR MONEY!!!
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback.
We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the bus tour itself, but we recognize that accurate information is just as important as the experience. Your comments regarding the Blue Route start time, journey durations, and difficulties planning around attraction opening hours are valuable and help highlight areas where clearer communication would improve the overall guest experience.
We also note your feedback regarding the London Eye booking and the challenges you encountered when trying to make changes through live chat and email. We understand how important flexibility can be when managing a busy sightseeing schedule.
Thank you again for sharing your experience and advice. Feedback like yours helps us identify opportunities to improve the information and support we provide to our guests. Alex@BigBusTours

The Hop On/Hop Off bus...
Jessica_B, Jul 2026
The Hop On/Hop Off bus was good. However, there are a lot of companies doing this and using the same stops. At times it seemed like I'd see 2-3 of each other companies bus before the Big Bus showed up. I'm not sure if this was just the weekend I was there or if it's common that the other companies run more often. I saw several empty Big Bus busses sitting unused and at times they would have us get off a bus to just jam pack another bus instead of running an additional bus. This meant we were crammed in and often waited twice as long as other bus companies. The addition of the London Eye ticket was nice but go early before lines get long as this is just a normal ticket for the London Eye and not the rapid pass.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Hi, Jessica!
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback.
We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the Hop-on Hop-off tour overall and that you appreciated the inclusion of the London Eye ticket.
At the same time, we're very sorry to hear about the long waiting times and the overcrowded buses you experienced. We understand how frustrating this must have been, especially when you noticed buses from other operators arriving more frequently.
We truly appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. Your feedback is valuable and will be shared with our local team to help us improve our service.
We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future. Andreea@BigBusTours!
Finding the buses weren't...
Carol_M, Jul 2026
Finding the buses weren't exactly easy and if you ask one of the employees selling tickets on the street they were rude and not helpful. Twice when we were getting on the bus we were told where that bus was going almost like they expected us to say we weren't going to ride on that bus. The drivers weren't polite at all. The River boat tour was nice. We booked our ride on the London eye but the lines were so long that we didn't even want to attempt to get thru that crowd. It had nothing to do with Viator. Only the eye itself.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Hello, Carol!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We are happy to know the river boat tour was a highlight, but we are genuinely sorry to hear about the poor service from the bus team and the overwhelming lines at the London Eye.
We hold our local tour partners to high standards, so we will be sharing your feedback directly with the operator to ensure their staff service improves.
We also appreciate you mentioning that the London Eye crowds were outside our direct control.
Feel free to contact us directly so our support team can check your account and assist you further.

Unfortunately not a great...
Katherine_W, Jul 2026
Unfortunately not a great experience - after purchasing this package 2 months prior to travel and booking London Eye ticket/time through the Big Bus App as directed by Viator we did so 2 months ago for our date of travel and time. When we went to activate the big bus ticket for the 48 hours on the morning of tour, it didnt "activate" proceeded to bus stop and asked attendant who said it was his first day and we could get on anyway. Red line tour is many hours, good sightseeing for central London, its slow. Second day was our London Eye booking which we had prebooked and had the QR code in the app until the morning of, then when we went to use it, it had disappeared. No assistance from Big Bus customer service who blamed viator for not confirming order, however hard to believe since our booking has been active since 2 months ago on the App. London Eye team members who arent affiliated assisted us (no help from Viator or Big bus) hence the dissapointment in this review. Big expense to just give up on, and a family holiday. I wouldnt do this again, id do London own transport and tickets for london eye on the day 👍
Second day did the blue line, takes a really long time for between stops and buses caught in traffic. Ended up doing the subway.
River cruise was nice.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Hi Katherine_W!
We're sorry to hear about the issues with your ticket activation and London Eye booking, especially after planning everything so far in advance.
We completely understand your frustration and disappointment, particularly during a family holiday. While we're glad you enjoyed the river cruise, this is not the experience we want our guests to have.
We appreciate you sharing your comments and will pass them on to the relevant teams for review. We hope to see you again without any issues!

Combo ticket
Helen_S, Jul 2026
The London Eye had beautiful views, marred by a man in our group who literally peed on the floor--gross! But the ride and views were terrific. The boat ride was nice and relaxing. The bus took forever due to the horrendous traffic, not the driver's fault. Bus was VERY warm! Took us almost 2 hours to get from stop 3 to stop 16

Not happy
Candy_P, Jul 2026
The traffic in London is ridiculous and the buses have no ac so when it is hot outside….the bus was totally miserable! I felt I was cooking in an oven! The only tour guide was recorded audio and a lot of time it was either ahead of sights or behind of the sights so it was hard to know where you were and what you were seeing. We found the subway to be much faster and if we had known that we would not have booked the bus. I was very disappointed.

We did not have a guide to answer questions. It was extremely hot even on the upper deck. No AC. Bus was nice to see the city sites but traffic was heavily congested. We didn't Hop on or off a lot, if at all, out of concern as to how long the next bus would be and how crowded that bus would be.

Just ok
Kara_M, Jul 2026
If you have other tours scheduled during your trip you don’t need to do a hop on and hop off bus. Night tour probably would have been more enjoyable. Wouldn’t recommend for 90 degree days. Top of buses are packed and lots of waiting in traffic. They make it seem like you can just jump on and off and encourage you to use the app but the times rarely matched. It was nice to be able to track the buses in real time though on the app since none of the times matched. They make you wait 15+ minutes or transfer to another bus at stop #2. When they’re done for the day they just stop and make you get off, not even at a Big Bus stop. We had to get transportation from the Underground from where they let us off.
The boat ride was a joke. Again very packed, couldn’t sit anywhere or hear the guide talking. We took an Uber boat the day before and saw the same sights.
London Eye was nice, but again very long line.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback.
We’re sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. We understand your concerns regarding overcrowding on the buses, delays caused by traffic, and the challenges of using the hop on hop off service during busy periods. We recognize that when buses are full and journey times are extended, it can make it difficult to enjoy the flexibility that the service is intended to provide.
We also appreciate your comments regarding the app and timetable information. Accurate and reliable tracking is extremely important when planning your day, and we regret that the expected times did not consistently align with the service you experienced.
Your feedback regarding transfers between buses and being asked to disembark at the end of service is particularly important. Clear communication and convenient arrangements should always be provided so that customers can plan their onward journey with confidence.
While we’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the London Eye and found the real-time tracking feature useful, we’re sorry that other aspects of the experience, including the river cruise, did not meet your expectations due to crowding and limited access to the commentary.
We truly appreciate your honest and detailed feedback, as it helps us identify areas where we can improve service reliability, communication, and overall customer experience.

Worry Free Trip

Rowan did a fabulous job taking care of us. She not only provided a lot of information about the sites we visited but also made sure everyone knew where and when to go. We covered a lot on our tour, and my husband and I were able to sit back and enjoy it all since someone else was in charge.

Unacceptable

Refrain from booking this tour. Despite being paid, the tour operator failed to provide an option for the London Eye for one week. It is unethical to offer a tour when the availability is uncertain. I am still awaiting a refund.
