London by Night: Open-Top Bus Tour
Why you should buy your ticket on Parks & Fun.
Highlights
As evening falls in London, the traffic lightens and the city lights up in all its beauty. With this 90-minute panoramic tour aboard an open-top bus, you'll admire the capital from a striking and unforgettable perspective.
Gaze up at the iconic clock tower of the Houses of Parliament, known worldwide as Big Ben, sparkling with lights. Experience the atmosphere on the banks of the Thames at dusk and be enchanted by the vibrant energy of Piccadilly Circus, with its famous light displays lighting up the night. The Tower of London, illuminated in every detail, offers a unique spectacle that highlights its grandeur and millennia-old history.
Along the way, an expert English-speaking guide will share stories, anecdotes, and curiosities about London's main monuments. As this is an evening tour, there will also be plenty of legends and mysteries, such as the disturbing story of the legendary barber Sweeney Todd. It will be a chance to experience London in a unique light, when the city comes alive under the stars.
Additionally, an audio guide is available in several languages (English—including children's—, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, Hindi, Japanese, and Arabic). The tour is suitable for all ages; in the colder months, we recommend bringing a coat to enjoy the experience in complete comfort.
