What people are saying about England

Incredible! It was completely worth it, a very good and quite impressive experience. The cruise staff were quite friendly and they give you a guided tour. It was good to know from previous reviews that the cruise only covers one leg so we took the cruise to the London Eye and waited for our reservation time right there. Once the London Eye loop was over (amazing btw) we got on the bus around 3pm and used the bus until 5pm when the routes ran out, and still got up early and continued to use the bus the next day. (The bus lasts 24 hours, so we visited several places using the time we had left.) I highly recommend downloading the Big bus app to be able to see the routes and buses in real time. Incredible experience, we were 4 people

HI, I never got a chance to use the boat cruise tickets. When we went on the day of the tour the ramp person to the boats said 30 minutes and would not let us wait for the boat. After that it rained and there were transit strikes after that ans we could not get in. The tickets expired Dec 31, 2022, will I be receiving a refund. Kindest regards, Nancy Norton

Had a really fun, insightful time on this tour! Phil, our tour guide, was exceptional and really knew how to engage with the crowd. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend.
