I eacape the heat of London to come to Brighton and get a day pass for tour bus so that I can see all the splendid views and have a cool breeze on my face!
The tour was a great experience and provided very informative insights about the sites to see around Brighton. The maps were really helpful to navigate. I found the price reasonable, especially since it offered discounts at many different sites around Brighton. The 2-day ticket was excellent value. The first time I took the bus tour, it was raining, so I couldn't see much, but I was able to go on the tour again the next day and enjoy it properly. The buses were not too crowded, which made the experience comfortable.
We visited Brighton from London for the weekend and decided to take the Brighton & Hove City Sightseeing Tour. From the friendly staff at Brighton Pier to the excellent tour itself, the whole experience was fantastic. A special mention goes to our driver on the 12:30pm tour from the Pier. At Lansdowne Road and York Avenue, a car and a double-parked van created a very difficult situation, but the driver handled it calmly, professionally, and with great skill. Watching him safely guide the bus through such a tight gap was genuinely impressive. The driver was modest when I complimented him afterwards, but he deserves recognition. A real credit to Brighton & Hove Buses. Highly recommended!
Great prices and great way of seeing Brighton. 12 hop on hop off stops including major attractions. Ticket valid all day unlimited use. The lady driver we had was awesome and friendly ( blonde sort hair, lots of tattoos and piercings - Sunday 31st May)
Really enjoyed our day using the bus to reach all the destinations of interest. Busses ran on time and drivers were really friendly and helpful. 5 stars!
I didn't expect to enjoy Brighton City Sightseeing as much as I did, especially after living here for a few years, but it genuinely gave me a new appreciation for the city and the multilingual audio guide shared curiosities about Brighton I still wasn't aware of. The driver was absolutely brilliant — I believe her name was... Michelle? So friendly and welcoming from the moment we went to her for more info. She wasn’t pushy at all, and we found her really informative, kind, and trustworthy. Her driving was buttery smooth, which made the whole tour feel really relaxing and effortless. You could just sit back, enjoy the ride, and take everything in without a single worry. The ticket is also great value, with unlimited bus travel for the full day plus discounts on local attractions like SEA LIFE, Volk’s Electric Railway, GLOBALLS crazy golf, Brighton Boating, and places like the Royal Pavilion and Brighton Museum. Honestly, I'd recommend it to anyone — locals included! It's such a nice way to see Brighton differently.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review. We’re really pleased you enjoyed the tour and that it gave you a fresh perspective on Brighton – even as a local. It’s great to hear the audio guide and added benefits helped make it feel like such good value. We’re especially grateful for your kind words about Michelle. She’ll be delighted to hear how much of a difference she made to your experience – we’ll be sure to pass this on to her. Thanks again for the recommendation, and we hope to see you on board again soon.
Was visiting the city for the week and took the tour bus on Tuesday, 5/5/26, and loved learning about the city using the free commentary provided via the headphones
Thank you for your lovely review. We’re really pleased you enjoyed discovering Brighton with us and found the commentary helpful. It’s a great way to explore the city, so it’s fantastic to hear you got so much out of it. We hope to welcome you back on board again soon.
Excellent and memorable tour around Brighton. The tour driver (7204) was amazing taking what I thought were impossible and tight turnings (For me!) with ease. £11.00 well spent for each individual. Ear phones included and route map. Clear and interesting narration from speaker (earphones). Tour lasted about 1 hour. Loved it.
Thank you for your great review. We’re really pleased you enjoyed the tour and found it good value. It’s lovely to hear how much you appreciated the driving on those tight Brighton streets – it takes real skill, so we’ll make sure your kind comments are passed on to our colleague. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience, and we hope to see you again soon.
We visited on 8th April as a family, we all really enjoyed the bus tour, the length of the tour was well worth the money. What made our experience extra special was our lovely driver, sorry I didn't get her name (short hair with tattoos). She went out of her way to make sure our Son, who has autism was comfortable and even let us have a few photos with the bus. Thank you so much for making his day.
Thank you so much for your kind review. We’re so pleased you all enjoyed the tour and found it good value, but it’s especially lovely to hear how much of a difference our colleague made to your son’s experience. We’ll make sure your feedback is shared with the team - it will mean a lot. Thank you again for taking the time to share this, and we hope to welcome you back on board soon.
The Brighton tour is excellent. The price is very reasonable as you get city buses included. The commentary was very informative. The driver was very efficient and helped with buying tickets and information. I have just come back from doing 3 European city sightseeing bus tours and this was the best.
Thanks so much for your lovely review. We’re really pleased you enjoyed the tour and found it good value, and it’s great to hear our colleague made such a positive impression. Hearing that we stood out from other European tours really means a lot to the team. We hope to see you again soon!
