    The journey to London was pleasant. However, reserved seating is a bit of a joke! We paid for reserved seats on the outward and return journey only to find that someone else was in our seats.

    Cheap & Cheerful I would say.
    ALOT of Do's & Dont's though.
    No -
    ▪︎ Achocol.
    ▪︎ Frozen Foods (Yes I found that strange too).
    ▪︎ No hot foods.
    Some 'I say some' drivers won't load you're luggage onto bus or even take them off after you arrive at your destination.
    Toilet on board but as our driver 'clearly stated' it MUST only be used for urinating or a number 1 - heaven know's if you happen to do a number 2 🤣.
    Seats are somewhat cramped but overall cheap coach.

    I drove a Routemaster. What else is there to say. If you're of the age when you can remember the classic London bus, you will love driving one. We did all three buses, the Routemaster, the bendy bus, and the modern bus and, of the three, the Routemaster was far and away the easiest to drive, with the bendy bus the hardest. But don't take my word - try it.

    It's not a particularly cheap experience. but it's a one off. Don't miss it.

    We had no option than to book the MegaBus home due to a last minute train strike. I honestly thought the Coach Station would be next to the Train Station. It was ages away with no clear signs so we ended up lost. I had a hip trauma and almost collapsed by the time we found the station. I had to ask my boyfriend to run ahead of me to ask the bus to wait. I literally got to the bus 1 min before it was due to leave and I was in so much pain and exhaustion I vomited and slept until we got to Bristol. We left Paddington one hour before the bus was due to leave which shows how badly signposted the Coach Station was. The walk from the train to the coach according to Google Maps is 12min but not even Google Maps took us on the correct walking route!!! I would never use Victoria Coach Station again.

    Good price but... What a painful experience for tall people. I've never seen a bus with less legroom, I am 183cm and one hour in this bus was a terrible experience.

    London is served by many different buses criss-crossing the capital. The buses run throughout the day and some run overnight as well.

    One of the routes that goes through the West End is the Number 88 bus. This bus runs from North London through the main shopping area over the River Thames to South London.

    The best way to do one journey is to pay with your debit or credit card. Depending on how many journeys you make in a day calculates how much you will be charged.

    My personal recommendation is to always travel on the top deck of the bus. You will get to see a different view of London by being above street level. There is some amazing architecture to admire and it is nice to see the city from a different view.

    I've never used Coachscanner before and whilst it took a little while to get the information about the coach company, on the day everything went to plan. The coach we had was fantastic- very high standard, arrived promptly and the driver was superb. A great day out was had by all. Thanks very much.
