Return Details

Returns to original departure point
Your night tour through London begins in the city center. Board the double-decker bus and grab a comfortable seat for the ride. Setting off through Piccadilly, get your first views of London magically illuminated. See the lively evening crowd and pass elegant stores like Fortnum & Mason juxtaposed by modern neon billboards. Continue on to Westminster to view the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey wonderfully shadowed by spotlight, and cruise by the Thames River dotted with glittering boats. 

Soon arrive at St. Paul’s Cathedral, the country's second-biggest church and a masterpiece of baroque architecture. Take a moment to marvel at the magnificent dome set against the city skyline, then catch great views of the illuminated London Eye and the iconic Tower Bridge, spilling golden light down from its two magnificent towers. 

The final leg of your tour takes you to Knightsbridge, an attractive neighborhood flush with concert venues, museums, and upscale shopping. Pass by Harrods—one of London’s most famous shops—on your way back to Green Park where your tour ends.

Not that amazing

This was kind of like a hop-on-hop-off type bus affair where you just get on whatever the next tour bus is along with whoever else is waiting at the stop. The weather was rainy and cold and the upper deck had only half a roof, which meant that you could choose to get a wet butt on the seat but see what you were driving past, sit inside where the fog and rain on the windows made it impossible to take photos or see much. Obviously the provider can't control the weather, but the sort of bus it was combined with the weather made it a disappointing tour.

Night Seeing Tour 20 10 2019

, Oct 2019
We did not fully take the benfit of the sightseeing tour and we considered that it was rather expensive for what we got out of it for the following reasons: I. The audio for French translation was not given at the beginning and when we asked for it only 3 were available (whilst we were 5) :( . The 'person in charge' was not able to explain us how it worked :( . And finally after struggling they did not even work :( :( :( II. The driver was driving rather fast and it was very difficult to appreciate the scenery or even to take pictures :( . Suggestion: when possible the bus driver could stop in front of the main buildings in order to let the tourists take a picture. Noneless to say we would appreciate a refund of the tickets. Best regards,

London Night Tour (Evan Evans Company - Viator)
PAUL B
, Oct 2019
The tour is well done with capable driver and tour guide. The only criticism is that the tour guide recognized that there were many German speaking tourists on board and tended to modify the tour to suit them more than the overall general public. Also, the tour ended on a bit of a sour note as we came up to a very serious car accident and the police shut down the road. As such, our tour ended early and we had to get off the bus and make our way back to our hotels, homes, etc. on our own with little or no help from anyone.

Our tour guide, John, was a hoot. Very entertaining but also very knowledgeable about London. London's historical sites are very something to see all lit up at night. We very much enjoyed the 90-minute tour.

I found the tour to be just average. The paper ticketing process was outdated. If you can purchase tickets online or through an app, it seems logical to be able to redeem vouchers electronically.
