Hop-On Hop-Off in London — FAQ

How does the London hop-on hop-off bus work?
Buy a 24- or 48-hour ticket and ride the open-top buses freely along set routes, hopping off at landmarks like the Tower, St Paul’s and Buckingham Palace and back on at your own pace.
Is a hop-on hop-off bus worth it in London?
Yes — for first-time visitors it’s an easy, good-value way to see the spread-out sights with commentary, especially as many tickets include a Thames cruise and walking tour.
How long is the hop-on hop-off bus route?
A full loop without stops takes around 2–2.5 hours; with a 24-hour ticket you can spread your sightseeing across the day.
