About

See the very best that London has to offer with a great-value City Sampler ticket. This ticket gives you full access to the unbeatable Red Route, which takes you to all the best parts of one of the very best cities there is.

Feel the wind in your hair on the top deck of an open-top bus as you cruise through beautiful, expansive Hyde Park, or as you drive along the city’s famous Embankment on the bank of the mighty Thames.

Experience the magic of crossing the river on four of the city’s famous bridges, including the emblematic Tower Bridge. There’s no better way to get a sense of London than from the bridges that span the lifeblood of the city.

From the sacred sights of St Paul’s and Westminster Abbey to the more worldly pleasures of Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square, you’ll experience every side of London. And If you need to know the time, just check Big Ben!
