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 — it's not as clean as it looks — although you can take a dip in the Lido at its edge.

The best part is, it's completely free to watch! Just don't get too close to the guards — they don’t stop marching if you’re in the way.

You'll see the locations of the murders, the crime scenes, and the places where the victims lived and worked. You'll also learn about the social and political climate of the time, which helped to create the perfect breeding ground for the killer to operate.

What our customers are saying about London

Excellent tour! The guide gave us an outstanding narration of sites along the way. He prepared us well for our two stops. The bus was very comfortable. Highly recommend.

Stonehenge and Bath Tour

The tour was fantastic. Our driver Kieran and our guide Tish were great. Tish was very knowledgeable. There was plenty of time at both destinations, although a full day at either would still not be enough.

Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace

Great guide, only negative was weather, but, the tour can’t control that. I would recommend
