There are a few to choose from, so we thought we'd tell
prospective visitors to London about the top four, plus the
Harrods coach.
The convenient thing about taking one of these tours is that
you can get to see pretty much all of the major sites of
historical importance in one day, and this can save a lot of
shoe leather, tube journeys and strange bus journeys going in
the wrong direction!
Once you've “done” the touristy thing, there
are plenty of less famous sites of equal interest to keep all
site seers happy. And this includes mastering the London bus
by not going in the wrong direction….we drive on the
left, you see!
Convenient places to board these tours include St Pauls
Cathedral, St. Martins-in-the-Fields church in Trafalgar
Square, Baker Street underground station, Haymarket Street
just off Piccadilly Circus, and opposite Victoria Station at
Grosvenor Gardens.
Coach and Bus Tours – Harrods in Knightsbridge offer a 90
minute coach tour around the city. Sign up at the store.
The following three companies offer double-decker bus tours
that feature hop-off service. The Big Bus Co has an all-night
service if you just can't wait to see the sights after
you arrive (or you are suffering from jet-lag and your body
hasn't caught up to local time).
