I've visited Brighton many times, but this was my first bus tour and I learnt so much. A great sightseeing tour. Also our driver, of the 10:21 from Brighton station on 06/06, was a real joker who added a lot of laughs to our circuits.

Nothing to complain about! It took us right around, through, up and down the city, to countryside, modern development, historical features, prestigious buildings, residential places and along plenty of the sea front. Even on a pretty murky day, it was a fantastic way to see lots of a new place in a 50- minute tour. The audio was decent quality, with good nuggets of information, and we were each provided headphones. We're already planning our next city visit to do our next open-top bus ride!

Very enjoyable ride around Brighton The tourbus goes really fast and it literally takes your breath away. Enjoyed the whole experience and adventure and saw some very pretty buildings. I also enjoyed the audio guide and free headphones. If you're in Brighton, especially for a short stay, I would reccomend this!

Nice trip around Brighton. The bus travels rather fast. It is a recorded commentary by using earphones. I think they could slow the bus down to be able to take in what you hear. Sometimes out of synch with commentary. Seems rushed.
