Simon was amazing!!! So entertaining and knowledgeable about London city and the Christmas Lights! 10/10 Great way to see the beautiful city and its lights at night. GET TO THE MEETING SPOT EARLY! Myself and my partner had to sit separately or wait for the next bus 30 mins away. That was the only downside of the experience. Despite this, my partner and I still thoroughly enjoyed it!

Our guide Simon was fantastic - his improvised Karaoke of Christmas songs when we came across one of Londons many protest marches was inspired. Left me feeling full of joy and happy after belting out Do They Know It’s Christmas with a load of strangers whilst sitting under Regent Streets Angels was sheer Heaven - thank you Simon 🥰

Greeted warmly, welcomed on to an earlier bus as there were seats available. Excellent extensive tour, lights magnificent and the guide prepared us so we could have our cameras ready for the best shots. Guide, Emma, is a 4th generation Londoner, with great stories to tell and a good sense of humour. Saw amazing areas I would never have seen otherwise and, all the better at night and at Christmas, so beautiful. Busy traffic, so the speed was gentle and appropriate. A huge highlight of our trip.
