The New Bus for London as a Tourist Bus

I said in my post yesterday, that the new Bus for London makes a superb place from which to explore London as a tourist.  So here’s most of the pictures I took from the bus, running on route 38.

The best place to board the bus is either at the Angel in Islington or at Victoria station.  But as there is only one in service at the present, you could have a long wait.  but there will be eight by the end of May.

i think it is true to say that the standard buses on route 38, aren’t bad for sightseeing. They’re all less than two years old and like the New Bus for London, they’ve been built by Wrightbus in Northern Ireland.

If you want to see a different side of London, go all the way to Hackney, getting off at Central. You can pick up a train from there to the Olympic Park at Stratford or even explore some of the buildings like the Hackney Empire, which is one of the largest theatres in London.
