TootBus – London

Totally. Grandparents love the relaxed pace and iconic sights, kids love the open-top ride and fun facts, and parents love not having to carry anyone or navigate the Tube. It’s easy to hop off for ice creams or loos, and there’s no rush – just good views and quality family time with commentary.

Yes. TootBus offers family passes and online deals. Booking in advance usually saves a few quid, and kids under 5 often ride free.

There is. It’s fun, engaging, and packed with interesting (and occasionally silly) facts to keep kids listening and learning without realising.

There are stops all over central London – near Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, the London Eye, Tower Bridge, Covent Garden and more. Use the app or map to plan your day.

Start at Green Park or Piccadilly Circus – both are well-connected and give you great views straight away. Or begin wherever you’re closest to!

Roughly 2 hours without hopping off, but we recommend jumping off for snacks, loos, or attractions along the way. It’s sightseeing, not a sprint.

No, but there are loos near many of the stops (e.g. Covent Garden, Trafalgar Square, South Bank). Plan ahead if you’ve got small bladders on board.

Yes, snacks are welcome (just no big picnics). Bring water, crisps, or sweets to keep kids going between stops.

Yes, low-level access at most stops and space for buggies or wheelchairs on board. Staff are helpful and know the drill.

There’s seating downstairs if the heavens open, but open-top is the fun bit, so dress for the weather and maybe bring a poncho just in case.
