Great hop on hop off bus tour

Great little experience. Bus driver very helpful and funny. The commentary was very informative . Good being able to stay on if you missed anything the first time around. A short walking tour was included which we picked up at the Walking tour centre (just ask the bus driver if you’re not sure where it is) Our guide Lesley was very knowledgeable and funny, answered any questions we had. We were only a small group of 3 🙂 Great afternoon and luckily lovely weather too. Would definitely recommend this activity

Great experience overall!

Great experience overall! The audioguide was interesting in most parts, the bus was always on time and we could change seats accordingly depending on the weather As the main streets are all within a 5 blocks radium, I recommend doing the whole tour and getting down on the stops near them, to get lost in those streets. Shan assisted us greatly when deciding what plan to choose. He helped us get the best based on what we needed at the moment, was super kind and patient. It didn't go unnoticed that he didn't just want to sell you something but to give the best advice and ideas for your situation. And Anoy guided us during the tour, with fun anecdotes and facts. It was really life saving when the audioguide was a bit delayed (due to traffic or sth), and he continued the guide smoothly, so we could really enjoy our time in spite of it.

Response from the operator: Thank you for your fantastic feedback! We're delighted to hear that you had a great experience with City Sightseeing Oxford and that you enjoyed both the flexibility of the tour and the onboard audio commentary. It's wonderful to know that the service ran reliably and helped you make the most of your time exploring Oxford's historic streets and attractions. We're especially pleased to hear your kind words about Shan. Providing honest, helpful advice and ensuring guests choose the option that best suits their needs is exactly the level of service we strive for, and Shan will be thrilled to know that his patience and support made such a positive impression. We'd also like to thank you for highlighting Andy's contribution to your tour. His fun anecdotes, local knowledge, and ability to seamlessly keep the commentary flowing helped ensure you had an enjoyable and informative experience throughout the journey. We'll be sure to pass your compliments on to both Shan and Andy. Thank you for choosing City Sightseeing Oxford, and we hope to welcome you back again soon for another memorable visit! 🚍⭐😊 Sam T - Retail and Tourism Supervisor

Take the bus, skip the cruise

The hop on hop off bus is EXCELLENT. Recommend the 2 day pass so that you can do the whole loop first and get an overview of the route and that’s on it. Second day hop on and off. The only reason I took off one star is because our booking included a river cruise. We could barely hear nor u destined the announcements. The river is short with only crew boat houses to see. The lock was closed so never went past that. Very short and was a waste of time and money. Skip the cruise.

Response from the operator: Dear Angela, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback on the City Sightseeing Oxford Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour. We are delighted to hear that you found the bus experience excellent and that you enjoyed the flexibility of the two-day pass. Your suggestion to complete the full route first to get an overview of Oxford before hopping on and off the following day is a very helpful tip for future visitors. We are, however, sorry to hear that the river cruise did not meet your expectations. We understand your frustration regarding the difficulty hearing the announcements and the limited experience due to the lock being closed. We appreciate you highlighting these aspects, and your feedback will be shared with the local team for review. Thank you again for recommending the City Sightseeing Oxford bus tour, and we hope to welcome you back to explore more of Oxford’s landmarks and attractions with us. Kind regards, Quality Department
