Traveler reviews
Best way to see the lights
The City Sightseeing Christmas Lights tour is a great way to see the lights of London, without having to put up with the crowds. You can see the lights from close up, and get some nice photos. It really does feel magical! The commentary onboard is great too, and the tour takes roughly 1 hour. If visiting London this Christmas I would definitely recommend doing this tour.
Bing bang bosh
Yeah, my experience was very positive. The buses came on time and the staff was extremely helpful with all my queries

I had brilliant experience with city sightseeing, exploring whole of London without any trouble, I would recommend to others
Fantastic time on the Christmas Lights Tour in London
We took the Christmas Lights Bus Tour in London last December with my wife, and we both had a wonderful time! 🎄✨ It was a fantastic way to enjoy the festive atmosphere, see London's beautiful Christmas lights and admire the city from the open-top bus. The whole experience felt special, and it was a lovely way to spend time together during the Christmas season. We would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting London in December! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Christmas lights experience
Very polite and experienced staff tour was fantastic despite traffic on route, did the tour with my 1 year old Grandson and he enjoyed every bit of it.
