Traveling London via the bus system has its advantages and disadvantages. Perhaps its greatest attribute is that, unlike traveling underground railway system, you are able to do see some of the city and do a little sightseeing as you make your way through town. Additionally, the red double-decker buses are a staple in London, and a ride on one of these famous carriages is a fantastic experience and should be a "must-do" on your sightseeing list.
A disadvantage of riding the bus is that city streets are often jammed during rush hour (8-9:30am and 4:30-6:30pm Monday through Friday), making buses subject to heavy delays. Also, buses are much slower than the underground even when there is very little traffic. To understand more about the London bus system, visit an LT Travel Information Centers located at: Euston King's Cross, Liverpool Street and Victoria rail stations, or Oxford Circus, Piccadilly, Hammersmith, Heathrow (terminals 1,2 and 3) and St. James Park tube stations, for free maps and information.
