Travel Info What is the best double decker tour in london? Travel Tips not quite a double decker tour but i have been on one of those duck tours where they take you around by land and then drive the specially adapted bus into the Thames to then sail down it and continue the tour - its fab and you get to do both tours in one!! Others Noneof them, they are a complete rip-off. Buy a one-day travel card and do your own trip for just a few 拢拢拢 instead of the 拢20 approx you will be charged. No 43 to London Bridge,see some sights,拢1.00 on your oyster Get on the normal buses - numbers 11, 15, 9, 28 and 9 are good and only cost 拢3 for unlimited journeys if you have an oyster card Suggested itinery: starting in Liverpool Street (Eastern side of central London) At Liverpool Street take the Number 11 bus which runs through the City, past the Bank of England, past St Pauls Cathedral, Fleet street, The Strand, Trafalgar Square, Whitehall past 10 Downing Street and Horseguards, Westminster past Parliament and the Abbey, then through Victoria including Westminster Cathedral, close to Buckingham Palace, through Pimlico to the Chelsea Hospital and Physic Garden, Sloane Square, King's Road through World's End and finishes up on Fulham Broadway. From here a short interconnect via the Number 28 bus takes you to Olympia where you can catch the number 9 bus back into town. That follows Kensington High Street, past Kensigton Palace and Gardens, Hyde Park, Knightsbridge, up Piccadilly, though Piccadilly Circus, to the Strand, where you hop off and onto a number 15 bus to the Tower of London. You can, of course do the route in reverse, or simply start at the Tower instead of Liverpool street, in which case you take a number 15 Westwards and change for the 11 on the Strand (perhaps popping up to Covent Garden in between buses). Taken from http://www.londontourist.org/free.html... - full of lots of things to do for free Duck tours is a lot of fun, but books up early. Try the Combined Bus and River tour ticket on the Original Bus Tour, if you are travelling in by train you can obtain the tickets at a reduction form a few of the Railway stations. NOT the big red bus, I asked them why when it passes the seamans memorial close by the tower nothing is said, my question was ignored..... |
