Previously a winner of the 'London Sightseeing Tour of the Year' award, The Big Bus Company has been using
open and closed top double-decker buses to tour the capital for over a decade.
Three routes are currently in operation, each being colour-coded (red, green
or blue) with a corresponding coloured logo on buses to indicate the relevant tour. Each tour lasts
approximately 1½ to 2 hours, although customers do have the opportunity to hop on or off the
bus at designated stops/pick up points. In addition, you can also switch between tours at certain
stops if there are particular attractions you'd like to see.
Buses run at intervals of between 10 and 20 minutes, while tickets can be
purchased from a number of sources including the company's Information Centre, the London Tourist
Board Office, selected hotels or, easiest of all, on the buses themselves.
Live commentaries are given in English, although the "The Big language tour"
offers foreign language tours in French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Russian and Hebrew. Also
included in the ticket price is a river cruise between Westminster and the Tower of London and a
themed walk (depending on the time of day).
