About this experience
Discover London aboard an open-top Big Bus sightseeing tour, with entry to the iconic London Eye included in every ticket. Choose a 24-hour or 48-hour hop-on, hop-off ticket and explore the city at your own pace, with stops near Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, the Tower of London, St. Paul’s Cathedral and many more famous landmarks. Enjoy panoramic views, engaging onboard commentary and breathtaking 360° skyline views from the London Eye. Each ticket also includes a one-way Thames River cruise between the Tower of London and Westminster Pier, available in either direction. 48-hour tickets also include three live guided walking tours in English only: the Royal Walk, Jack the Ripper Walk and Harry Potter Walking Tour, exploring royal landmarks, famous film locations and London’s darker history beyond the bus route.
