Festive bites with your lights tour

The London Christmas Lights & Bites Tour by TransporaBus combines a 90-minute sightseeing ride with sweet and savoury snacks. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate are included. The converted vintage Routemaster has a cosy interior, with live English guiding and the Christmas streets outside the windows.

The inspected listing starts at £36 per person and is rated 4.1 out of 5 from 186 reviews. Those figures belong to this exact product and were checked on 19 October 2026. The starting amount is a listing-wide minimum; your chosen departure and party determine the actual price.

Is it a traditional afternoon tea?

The verified inclusions establish snacks and hot drinks. We do not describe them as a full traditional afternoon tea, a specific multi-course menu or an alcoholic-drinks package. If you are looking for scones, sandwiches or a particular dietary menu, ask the operator to confirm what your selected booking provides before paying.

Plan the practical details

Meet at Embankment Stop 40b, WC2N 6PB, using your voucher’s arrival instructions. The advertised route includes Regent Street, Oxford Street, Piccadilly, Trafalgar Square and Westminster landmarks, subject to traffic and road closures. Hotel transfers and attraction entry are excluded.

The listing says the activity is not suitable for wheelchair users or people with mobility impairments. Confirm child age requirements, seating and dietary accommodation separately. A warm-looking interior in a photograph does not establish any unlisted boarding arrangement or heating specification.

When a separate meal works better

If you already have dinner plans, Golden Tours provides sightseeing with departure choice. For an open-air view with guaranteed upper-deck seating, compare The Classic Tour, Big Bus and See London By Night. Their different durations and meeting points can make one a better fit for the rest of your evening.

Use the prices and seating guide to compare complete inclusions, then check the selected date, passengers and cancellation deadline in the provider’s booking flow.
