Paddington Afternoon Tea Bus Tour Route
It was like entering a parallel universe of fun & tasty treats.
I took my two sons aged 11 and 6 on the inaugural Paddington Afternoon Tea Bus Tour with Brigit's Bakery. And we had such a good time. It was like entering a parallel universe of fun and tasty treats. The sandwiches and cakes were delicious - we sat down really hungry and left completely stuffed. The staff were friendly and attentive. And it was fun having Paddington and Mrs Bird narrating our journey around London. A wonderful activity to do over the half term holiday.
Yy 5 yr son loved the bus, cakes & souvenirs.
Really enjoyed our experience on the Paddington themed afternoon tea bus tour. I took my 5 yr son and he loved the bus, cakes and souvenirs. Would definitely recommend, particularly if you have young kids and want to show them the City of London.
The girls had so much fun listening to the tour.
We just finished Paddington tour bus! Best experience in every way and will try different tours.
I booked this for my daughters 7th Birthday. The food is beautiful presented! Very cute and vegetarian menu very good in selection. The girls had so much fun listening to the tour. Our hosts JP, Vince and Anna were amazing and very friendly. The hygiene is well considered, staff wear gloves when serving the sandwiches. We are definitely going to try different theme tour with Brigit Bakery again!
The team were exemplary!
We were on the second Paddington themed bus tour and the team were exemplary! Very professional and made the experience extremely special for my son and I. We sat right at the front and had the most wonderful afternoon, even despite my little one suffering from motion sickness. I highly recommend!

No, the bus is only permitted to pick up/drop off passengers at our designated locations.
Is there a toilet on-board?
No, there is no toilet on board our Paddington Bus Tours. There are no public toilets at the Trafalgar Square departure point.
I would love to book a Paddington Bus Tour – why is it only for over 5’s?
Due to the length of the tour and having no toilets on board the bus, our Paddington Tours are best suited, and enjoyed, by children of 5 years and over. Parents / guardians must be confident that all persons in their party will not need to use toilet facilities for the duration of the whole experience.
Please be advised that no standing or walking is permitted during the tour.

Are there changing facility on board?
No, unfortunately as it’s a classic Routemaster bus, space is limited, so there are no toilets or changing facilities onboard.
Is there somewhere to park our buggy?
No, we’re afraid that space is very limited on board the bus, so there’s no room to store buggies.
Are there seatbelts for the children?
No, we operate a 1960’s classic Routemaster bus, which was not fitted with seatbelts. Health and safety does not require us to install seatbelts however we do insist that all party members remain seated. Please be advised that no standing or walking is permitted during the tour. Parents / guardians are responsible for assessing whether their children are capable of remaining seated on parents' laps or on their own for the duration of the tour. Parents are also responsible for keeping their children seated during the tour.
Would you advise having two children per adult maximum?
We recommend having two children between 5-12 years old per adult. Please be advised that no standing or walking is permitted during the tour.

Open-Top Bus Tours in London
![london open top bus tours from paddington Open-Top Bus Tours in London](https://1990171352.rsc.cdn77.org/media/2376/open-top-bus-tours-london.jpg?anchor=center&mode=crop&width=767&rnd=133371801580000000)
If you are looking for a fun and easy way to explore London, you might want to consider taking an open-top or hop-on hop-off bus tour. These tours allow you to see the city's most famous landmarks and attractions from a comfortable and convenient seat on a double-decker bus. You can also hop off at any stop and explore the area on foot, then hop back on when you are ready to continue your journey.
One of the best open-top bus tours in London is the Big Bus London Hop-On Hop-Off Tour and River Cruise . This tour lets you choose from three different routes that cover the main sights of London, such as Buckingham Palace , Big Ben , Tower Bridge , Westminster Abbey, Trafalgar Square, and more. You can also enjoy live commentary in English or personal commentary in 12 languages on board. Plus, you get a free one-way river cruise on the Thames that offers a different perspective of the city.
Another great option is the Vintage London Bus Tour Including Thames Cruise with Optional London Eye. This tour takes you on a nostalgic ride on a classic Routemaster bus that dates back to the 1960s. You will see some of the most iconic places in London, such as St Paul's Cathedral , The Tower of London, and The Houses of Parliament. You will also get to enjoy a scenic cruise on the Thames and have the option to add a ticket to the London Eye for a spectacular view of the city.
If you are a fan of Harry Potter, you might want to check out the London: Harry Potter Walking Tour + Hop-on Hop-off Bus + River Thames Cruise. This tour combines a 24-hour hop-on hop-off bus pass with a guided walking tour of some of the locations featured in the Harry Potter films, such as Diagon Alley, Platform 9 3/4, and The Leaky Cauldron. You will also get to cruise along the Thames and see some of the landmarks that inspired J.K. Rowling's magical world.
No matter which open-top bus tour you choose, you will need a comfortable and convenient place to stay in London. That's why we recommend Mercure London Paddington , a four-star hotel that is located just steps away from Paddington Station, where you can find many of the bus tour pick-up points. Mercure London Paddington offers modern and spacious rooms , free Wi-Fi, a fitness center, and a restaurant and bar. It is also close to many attractions, such as Hyde Park , Kensington Palace, and Oxford Street . Mercure London Paddington is the perfect hotel for your London adventure!

Comparing London's hop-on hop-off sightseeing buses
Tootbus compared with big bus + golden tours with previously asked questions.
![london open top bus tours from paddington Tootbus (Original London Tour) Open Top Sightseeing Bus](https://www.londontoolkit.com/Images/london-hoho-comparison.png)
Tootbus has routes to major sights and free cruises
London's hop-on sightseeing bus tour providers
Nowadays sightseeing tours of London are dominated by London's three hop-on, hop-off open top sightseeing operators:
1. Tootbus (formerly The Original Tour) 2. Big Bus 3. Golden Tours
If you see anybody else offering a hop-on, hop-off tour for London they are acting as an agent for one of the above.
At first inspection all three London sightseeing operators offer a very similar product. But spend an hour or so studying each service and you begin to identify the differences.
This page aims to save you that time and present the differences as concisely as possible.
The traditional guided coach tour of London is still available, but in terms of market share this is tiny compared with London's popular hop-on, hop off sightseeing buses.
Premium Tours also run a small fleet of open top vintage red London buses. These fall somewhere between the guided coach tour and the hop-on, hop-off sightseeing buses. The London red vintage bus tour has no hop-on, hop-off facility and is basically a guided orientation tour of London's main sights with a few photo stops and a river cruise.

Tootbus (The Original Tour) v Big Bus v Golden Tours comparison
![london open top bus tours from paddington Big Bus hop on bus - top deck evening tour](https://www.londontoolkit.com/Images/big-bus-coouple-evening.png)
All 3 London sightseeing tour operators are established operators in the London market. Big Bus and Tootbus (formerly The Original Tour) are owned by large corporates and Golden Tours, the relative newcomer entered the market several years ago after a long history of offering the traditional guided coach tours, which they still do.
All 3 operators offer similar packages, but more differences have opened up in recent years, see below for more details.
Walking Tours
Both Golden Tours and Big Bus offer highly regarded professionally guided walking tours included with your ticket (selected tickets only).
With Golden Tours you can choose from a Jack The Ripper Walking Tour or Coronation Walking Tour.
Big Bus offer THREE FREE TOURS with their Essential and Explore tickets: Changing of the Guard Walking Tour, City of London Walking Tour and a Jack the Ripper Walking Tour. Each tour is 1.5 hours long.
Tootbus do not offer guided walking tours but instead give you the chance to download "Tootwalk" to your phone: a choice of three self-guided walks.
River cruises
River cruises are available with all three tour companies, but not all tours automatically include them; the cheaper (both 24-hr and calendar day) tours do not. If this is important to you, do check carefully before booking.
Routes and vehicles
All operators offer an open top bus experience with routes that all cover the major sights in central London.
Although they each have a different number of routes, where they visit is almost identical, with all three sightseeing tour operators almost duplicating each others routes in the very heart of London.
You can click through on the links below to study each operators route map in detail.
Tootbus are the only operator to offer the unique Kids Tour which is a non-stop tour (not hop-on, hop off) but which is cheaper and offers a commentary that is very family friendly. In addition they are also the only company to offer a 1.5-hr Bar Bus tour , again, not hop-on hop off but a memorable experience with bar on board.
Vehicles used are almost identical, all offer free Wi-Fi and audio guides providing commentary in English and at least one other language.

Big Bus Tour map London 2024
Golden Tours route map London 2024
Live guides vs audio guides
This is one area that has also changed in recent years. Traditionally all three companies offered live guides on at least one of their hop-on tours.
Today you will find this is no longer the case. If having a live guide is important to you there are a couple of options, but none of them are hop-on, hop-off but rather 60 or 90-minute continuous sightseeing tours.
Golden Tours have a live guide on their 90 min non-stop tour.
Tootbus have a live guide on their London Kids Tour and London Christmas Tour.
Big Bus no longer offer a live guide service on any of their tours.
Prices are similar to the 1-day tour but many people really value having a live guide if English is a language they speak fluently.
Tootbus no longer offer the range of languages it once used to; now audio is either in English or French. Big Bus have an audio guide with 5 languages. Golden Tours have the most with 11 languages.
Times and frequencies of buses
All operators start up around 8.30am and start running down the service around 5pm. Evening services are also additionally available as a separate tour with all three operators.
All three operators, even in the winter months operate frequent bus services, however of the three operators perhaps Golden Tours is slightly less frequent. You shouldn't generally have to wait more than twenty minutes however.
London's hop-on buses - differences between tickets for all 3 operators
![london open top bus tours from paddington Tootbus (Original Tour) hop on bus London](https://www.londontoolkit.com/Images/tootbus-onboard-small.png)
Standard tour ticket durations
24, 48 or 72-hr durations.
All operators offer tickets with 24 and 48-hr validity periods; Tootbus and Golden Tours also offer 72-hr tickets.
In addition Tootbus offer a 60-min Bar Bus ticket, while Golden Tours offer a fully guided 1.5-hr Express ticket (see above).
Tootbus call their tickets, '1-day' and '2-day' but the actual validity is 24, 48 or 72 hours.
Golden Tours offer cheaper calendar tours (which run from when you buy them to the end of the day) in addition to 24/48/72-hr tickets. The calendar day tickets do not include the river cruise.
Shorter tours/express tours (not hop on, hop off)
Both Tootbus and Golden Tours offer shorter tours, of 1.5 hrs which are different to the traditional hop on, hop off buses in that you stay on them for the duration of the tour. Tootbus call theirs as 'Bar Bus' as drinks are available on board (over 18s only). River cruises are not included with these tours.
For Golden Tours this is their only product featuring a live guide. Although much shorter therefore, the price is nearly as much as a 24-hr hop on bus tour.
Tootbus' similar offering is in the same price band but does not feature the live guide. Many people really appreciate the difference between having a live guide and an audio guide.
Evening tours (not hop on, hop off)
All three companies offer evening tours which are non-stop for around 1.5 hours. Again, Golden Tours is the only operator offering the live guide on this experience, though Tootbus have a live guide on their Kids Tour and Christmas Lights tour.
Big Bus also include a separate evening tour with their Explore ticket.
Discounted - cheapest tickets
Hop-on, hop off sightseeing tickets are freely available in London from hotels, tourist centres and on the day from the representatives of the tour companies you find around the bus stops.
Do not expect to find discount vouchers or codes, if you do find one it's the exception rather than the rule.
However, cheaper tickets can be found using our banners on this page. By booking online ahead of our hop-on, hop-off bus tour you will always save money.
Our partners Travel Compendium bring you exclusive discounts on hop on bus tours in London with Golden Tours and Big Bus.
Pre-booking tickets - flexibility and ease/cost of obtaining tickets
All three operators now require you to select your date of tour at purchase. However all 3 tours companies offer a 'flexible booking guarantee' should you need to amend your tour date at any time (Tootbus allow this up 12 months from date of purchase, Golden Tours allow a cancellation for full refund up to 24 hours before boarding, Big Bus require 72 hours to amend your booking.)
For Big Bus and Golden Tours tickets are e-tickets and are shown to the driver at your first bus stop. Here they give you a receipt which you keep for the validity of your hop-on bus tour.
Tootbus accept mobile tickets but encourage you to download your tickets on to their app, for ease of use.
Both Big Bus and Tootbus offer an app offering similar features such as:
Maps, route planning, real time bus tracking, walking directions to nearest bus stops, nearby eateries and attractions and even the secrets of must-see landmarks with audio commentaries.
With Tootbus you can also import your pass (tickets) ready to scan directly on the bus.
London Pass - choice of 2 hop on bus companies: Big Bus or Golden Tours
![london open top bus tours from paddington Big Bus or Golden Tours hop on bus included with London Pass](https://www.londontoolkit.com/Images/london_pass-3.jpg)
The London Pass is a flat rate sightseeing pass to many (but not all) of London's main sightseeing attractions. You can buy a London Pass for 1, 2, 3, 6 or 10 day durations
The London Pass gives you entry into more than 60 London tourist attractions and a river cruise on the River Thames.
The London Pass also now includes use of either Golden Tours or Big Bus hop-on hop-off bus for one calendar day, whatever the duration of the London Pass.
Tootbus are not part of the London Pass scheme.
Key points of the London Pass Ho Ho bus offer
You can choose to ride on the Golden Tours or Big Bus hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus. Tootbus (Original Tour) is not covered.
The Ho Ho bus offer is for one calendar day not for 24 hours.
Most people use the Ho Ho facility on the first day of their London Pass, but there is nothing stopping using it on another day when the London Pass is valid.
The Ho Ho bus offer with London Pass doesn't include the walking tours and river cruises included in the standard tickets issued by the Ho Ho companies concerned, only the bus tour (but you do get a river cruise included in the London Pass separately anyway)
You show your London Pass to the driver or tour guide of the first bus you board. They will scan your London Pass and issue you with a separate ticket for the bus company concerned valid for the rest of the day. You cannot switch to the other bus company once you have made your first journey.
London Pass more details
Free river cruises
![london open top bus tours from paddington St Paul's from top deck Tootbus tours London](https://www.londontoolkit.com/Images/tootbus-st-pauls.png)
While all three tour companies have a river cruise option, not every tour comes with a river cruise automatically. The cheaper tours for example, do not feature a river cruise.
Both Big Bus and Tootbus use the same river cruise company, City Cruises , while Golden Tours use Thames River Sightseeing.
Golden Tours/Thames River Sightseeing operate a cruise between Westminster Pier and Greenwich Pier.
Tootbus and Big Bus cruises run between Westminster and Tower Pier (or Greenwich Pier for Big Bus Premium or Deluxe ticket holders).
All operators run river services approximately every 40 minutes and later services are usually available until around 6pm in the summer season from April.
The Thames Cruise should be a highlight of your day and we recommend you take advantage of the facility.
Thames river cruise ticket options by company
A complimentary one-way river cruise offered by City Cruises (lasting around thirty minutes) is included in your Big Bus London ticket.
Tootbus' cheaper ticket doesn't come with the river cruise included - look for it on the 'Must See London' ticket. Your one-way river cruise starts at either Westminster pier or Tower of London pier.
Golden Tours
Golden Tours' river cruise is only available on the 24-hr ticket, not the calendar day ticket. There is also another ticket option to choose 24-hrs without cruise. Cruises are also one-way.
