5 Reasons to Book the Sparkling Christmas Lights Open-Top Bus Tour in London

Christmas 2026 | Early bird tickets £25

Want to see London’s Christmas lights without battling the crowds on foot? A new Sparkling Christmas Lights Open-Top Bus Tour takes you past the city’s most festive streets with a glass of fizz in hand. Here are five reasons to book.

1. The best lights in one trip

The route takes in the dazzling displays on Regent Street and Bond Street, as well as the festive atmosphere of Trafalgar Square. It’s an easy way to see several of London’s best Christmas lights in one go, especially if you’re visiting with family or friends who don’t know the city well. Regent Street’s lights switch on on 5 November, so you’ll catch them at their best.

2. English sparkling wine on board

The tour includes English sparkling wine and seasonal wines from Silverhand Estate in Kent, making it feel like a proper festive celebration rather than a standard sightseeing trip.

3. A view from above

From the top deck, you get a completely different perspective on the lights and London’s landmarks than you would from the pavement. It’s an especially magical way to see the city after dark.

4. A great festive treat or gift

It’s a lovely option for a Christmas date night, a catch-up with friends, a work outing or a present for someone who loves London at Christmas. Wrap up warm, as it’s an open-top bus.

5. Early bird price for a limited time

Early bird tickets are £25 for the opening weeks, but only for a few days, so book soon for the best price. Check Fever for dates, departure times and the meeting point.
