We are Brighton residents, but have never been on the tour. We went twice in 3 days. The first trip got off to a bad start. I took my autistic son (8), my daughter (4) and a teenager who I work with. Two of our party have a disability. Upon boarding the bus, my son became overwhelmed and upset about something and made a lot of noise. The driver became impatient and (whilst I struggled to manage my son's needs and ordering the tickets) the driver said to me, "would you please get to the point." This was upsetting and disappointing. I found myself having to firmly advocate for myself and my son, asking for a little bit of time to manage the situation. Despite this, all the children loved the experience. Thankfully, the second time we boarded, two days later, the driver was very friendly and helpful. He greeted the children cheerfully and helped me to access the available discounts.

The live tour was amazing I would recommend it plus I got a student discount not available with many CitySightseeing lines elsewhere.

Did the red route tour and found the tour really interesting. Staff very friendly and helpful. Booked on line before the day. Please note they need paper print outs of reservation as they can’t accept e copies off your phone. Staff were so helpful.

Having not been on a open-top bus tour for some years, we decided to try this and we're not disappointed. Staff were friendly and the ticket price gives access to all three tours and travel on other Brighton buses on the day of purchase. The pre-recorded commentary is interesting and available in a number of languages. Due to time constraints, we only ended up doing the City tour but would definitely come back in the future to try the others. I have one tip if you're considering this - just because it may seem warm on the ground doesn't mean that it'll be the same on an open top bus - the final part of the tour along the clifftop Marine Parade made me wish I'd worn a long-sleeved top!

The staff are incredibly friendly. The routes are interesting with commentary throughout so that you get a nice history lesson of Brighton. You can go on all 3 routes which I think is fantastic. The ticket also works on all the other buses in Brighton so I'd recommend getting the 2 day pass as a single trip in Brighton on a bus is over £2. I'd recommend bringing a blanket too!

Went to Brighton and was looking forward to going on this bus but I didn’t see any in sight. When I asked around they mentioned maybe this service does not run during the colder weather and someone even mentioned the service ended end of September, but this was not mentioned on the site. We did have a great day at Brighton and the weather was great for the i360.

Had a lovely tour on the open air bus my wife is in a wheelchair and the lady driver was most helpful nothing was to much trouble excellent service

Due to the weather we were only able to do the one tour and not the three. We did the City Tour. The driver was very informative about Brighton. The ticket price of 13.00 per adult for the three tours great value for money.

Booked this trip, even though I know the town well, but was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Fantastic (if slightly tacky) commentary and pace. I sat at the back of the top deck, snapping brainlessly and filming the sights, going so far as to repeatedly ignore the ‘don’t stand up’ policy, for which I was rightly told off at the end by the thoroughly professional driver, Debbie. Sorry for making your job harder Debbie. Rode the Red route - Wish I’d bought the option of a two-day ticket to try the Blue and Green routes - think it’s not much more to upgrade from the one-day family ticket? I would say, if you’re like me, what will make-or-break the bus ride for you will be how busy it is onboard... I rode the City Sightseeing Brighton route with the family and fewer than 8 other passengers. This makes the whole thing relaxing, as I’ve found that other bus tours with sharp-elbowed, ruthless, and loud co-tourists makes for cramped seating, distractions and obstructed views. I would recommend you do this in bad weather when the gormless day trippers from Brixton, East Ham and Africa avoid the seafront? Top marks to the staff and management.

One of the best sightseeing tours we've been on. There are 3 different routes, each taking about 1 hour, and the ticket price (£17 adult, £10 Senior) covers all three tours, so throughout the day we spent over 3 hours seeing all the sights in and around Brighton. Devils Dyke, on the country tour, would have been great to stop off at, if we'd known in advance exactly what was there, but time prevented us doing so. Wonderful views across the countryside and back to Brighton, or just watch hang-gliders above. Good, clear, informative commentary on all tours and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. We would certainly recommend it, especially if you only have one day to see all the sights. We would have had to drive to the furthest reaches of the tours, so it was great to not have to do so.

Went on the city tour last week. We have always used the City Sightseeing brand in cities throughout Europe - Lisbon, Athens, Berlin, Prague, Budapest, Copenhagen, Edinburgh & Nice. We were on the first tour of the day - only one other person on board. Had to ask the driver to stop as we would not get the audio to work properly - poor signage about languages available and also how to increase the volume. Perhaps the problem was just with our bus, but it could do with an upgrade. Not impressed by the Brighton franchise.

We went on this about 8 years ago where the commentary was entertaining informative full of real stories music effects and using known voices of real actors. Now it’s over priced, very poor and misses out lots of what was originally portrayed! It’s a no and far too expensive and not very comfortable either. Staff indifferent and disinterested without any knowledge of the history of the city and it’s incredible reputation for the individulaity!

We did the city tour and the coastal tour. Very informative. Great way to spend the afternoon. If we had more time, we would have done the country tour also.

We were on holiday in the area and decided this would be a good idea to see the sights and learn some of the history....which turned out to be worthwhile and interesting, however........we planned our day out the day before purchasing tickets online, email delivered to my device with tickets attached as a PDF file, please print out......doh I'm on holiday!! I wrongly assumed that by showing the driver the attachment which had a reference code etc that this would be sufficient......NO, an actual piece of paper is required 😠. So people if like us you try to get organised make sure you have access to a printer or find somewhere/one that will print your PAPER ticket for you and enjoy the tour

Went on the two new tours they've launched this year, to Devils Dyke, and to Saltdean. The commentary was very interesting, and as a Brighton resident, taught me a lot about the city I love, and showed me places I never would have thought of going to. Thoroughly recommend. My drivers Kevin, and Joe did a marvellous job too!
