FAQs

Do I need to choose a date for my tour?
Yes – when you book, you will need to select the date you’d like to hop on the bus.

Some tours also require you to select a time of travel, to secure your seat. If your ticket has extra inclusions, you may also need to book dates and times for these inclusions after your purchase is complete via our Booking Portal. For more information, please see the instructions on your booking confirmation email.

You can purchase tickets either on this website, from an on-street Big Bus Tours staff member, on the bus, from a trusted retailer such as your hotel concierge, or at one of our key sales points.
