The Original London Sightseeing Tour provides more than just a great way to travel around London. Founded in 1951 at the time of The Festival of Britain and now the largest single sightseeing operator in the world, it has become established as an essential introduction to London. It offers you total choice and flexibility. The Hop-on Hop-off service allows you to board any of the tour routes at over 90 different stops with a commentary in English or six other languages (see below). The Kids' Club provides an educational but fun alternative for 5-12 year olds. Hop on Hop off services are frequent and reliable with tours running daily, every 15-20 minutes. The Original Tour allows you to experience all the magical sights and sounds of London in a comfortable and secure environment.
Walking Tours:
Changing of the Guard Walk and Cool Britannia both departing from The Original London Visitor Centre on Cockspur St and also the Original London Jack the Ripper Walk departing from The Original Tour stop at Tower of London on Tower Hill. Our walking tours last 90 minutes and are guided in English by one of our experienced and entertaining guides.

Original Tour are now running a Station Connector service from St Pancras International, linking Eurostar day trip arrivals into our two main tour routes at Marble Arch. We will also be running an all day Capital Connector service in the Bayswater area, again linking into the main tours at Marble Arch.
Kids' Club:
History made fun - for kids, by kids ... plus the voice of the ghost of London! Every child also gets a 'passport' to London and a fantastic free fun pack with activity/quiz book.
