Excellent tour for families! - Sophia was our guide and she was fantastic! We lived in London for 10 years and didn't know some of the facts she was telling us. We even got to catch a glimpse over Buckingham Palace wall where there's a pool, tennis courts...and an atm! I LOVE that we now know why Green Park has no flowers! Thank you for a wonderful tour!

Fun way to enjoy London - We loved the tour guide. It was fun listening to him. Get there earlier than 10-15 minutes so you can get better seats. And since you are on a bus, you avoid the crowd and enjoy the scenery better.

Great Family Tour of London City - Went with our two boys , 4 and 9. Bus driver was very nice and let us on early too. We sat upstairs in the front which had the best view and felt safer for the little one. Tour guide was very clear and the information was interesting and suitable for children as well as adults. 45 minutes was perfect for a young family to get to see the main parts of London City in a short space of time without tonnes of walking. The little booklet was perfect for the kids, especially the 9 year old. The easter chocolate at the end was a nice touch too. Thanks so much!

Perfect for little ones! - This was a great little tour of some of London’s attractions. The guide was lovely. My daughter sat for the entire trip, which was just under an hour. Perfect for kids!

FANTASTIC FOR YOUNG CHILDREN AND Families STAFF WERE KIND HELPFUL - Absolutely FANTASTIC ! We did the child friendly 45 minute tour but it ended up being 1 hour 20 because of the traffic being 1 lane at Piccadilly! This showed us we had booked the right tour for our toddler as he was ready for off about 1 hour 15 in so we couldn’t have done one of the typical 2 hour ish tours with him it was just the perfect length. Really safely driven, absolutely FANTASTIC funny and friendly tour guide who was very informative and helpful whilst waiting for our tour and a great guide on the way around!! We willl DEFINITELY do this again in summer it went by all the thing we wanted to see and for a fantastic price cannot commend this tour enough to be honest. As you can see from the attached photos our son LOVED it!

The most boring tour I've had in a while and not fun for the kid - Neither the content nor the delivery was in any way made accessible or interesting to children. This isn't a kid tour, and it's even boring for adults due to the delivery style.

Complete waste of time - Where to start? We took this tour on a day of demonstrations. The day before we got an email saying that the meeting point had changed and Trafalgar Square would be diverted. Ok fine. But in fact we took a completely different route. We saw Westminster abbey and Big Ben from so far away I had to point them out to my kids and they weren’t interested. We saw the London eye for a second as we drove past and looked up a street. We saw a children’s hospital. I understand that tootbus does not control the protesters but it should inform visitors of what they will and will not see. Since this tour only runs on the weekends you’d think they’d have a satisfactory alternative plan since protests are not uncommon in London. More generally the audio was so bad we could barely understand what the guide was saying so my kids did not pay attention. I listened carefully and the narrative was in my view not for kids at all. Lots of dates and no introductory facts. Ie she pointed to Westminster abbey but didn’t actually explain what it is. I would not recommend this tour to anyone even on non demonstration days.
