Gray Line London Insider Tips

Things to do in London
1. Make the most of your time with a hop-on hop-off bus tour through London

A hop-on hop-off bus tour is easily the best way to see London. Gray Line will take you around all the sights and you can jump off at any attraction you want at any time to take a closer look. Your legs will thank us for not walking miles.

2. Take a leisurely stroll through Hyde Park

Hyde Park is one of the most beautiful parks in London, and it's the perfect place to take a leisurely stroll. You'll be able to see the famous Speakers' Corner, the Serpentine lake and the Diana Memorial Fountain. If you're there in the summer, you can also catch a performance at the open-air theatre. Just don't try to swim in the Serpentine lake โ€” it's not as clean as it looks โ€” although you can take a dip in the Lido at its edge.

What our customers are saying about London

The booking experience was super easy. I was travelling with my 77 years young father and he was able to see as many sights in one day and then hopped off at those stops we wanted to see a little closer. I would highly recommend Gray Line and plan to use them for our next trip to...
