London by Night Bus Tour with Christmas Lights and Live Guide - The Strand and the glowing Savoy figures

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 2,040 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $41Our pick

Review of London’s Christmas lights bus tour, with route highlights, seating tips, traffic warnings, guide quality, and advice on value.

“My wife and I booked this tour to see the Christmas lights but also gain some education about the building and history of the city. We’ve been to London almost 10 times but mainly follow our own tours. We were not disappointed! We learned quite a bit about the history, LOVED the lights and appreciated that Emma was able to wave some personal stories into her narrative. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone and will book if we’re back in London for the festive period in the future.”
