The tour features energetic live guides who share hidden stories, weaving together royal traditions, cultural milestones, and quirky local lore as famous landmarks pass by. Guaranteed top-deck seating ensures unobstructed views. Buses have room for pushchairs on the lower deck, complimentary 5G Wi-Fi, and free travel for children under two. Families can cancel up to 24 hours in advance.
Booking details
Tickets are priced at £18, down from £24, for a limited time. Families are advised to arrive 10 minutes before departure, as seating is first come, first served.
