Double Decker Red Routemaster Bus in the strert of London

About this vehicle:

Available to hire in London this famous classic Red London Routemaster Bus was a familiar sight in the capital during the late 50’s and 60’s. It has a rear open platform loading and Double Deck seating.

 

The photographs show the traditional Upper Deck with 36 seats and the Lower Deck with 28 seats.  We are advised that fares will not be collected during the trip ! 

 

This is a fabulous way for all of your guests to travel together and of course solves the parking problem at the church.  A Big Red London Bus will certainly be a talking point at the wedding.

 

Drinks Service in this Routemaster Bus:  

If you'd like to provide celebratory drinks to your wedding guests this is perfectly fine but we do ask you to be aware of a few requirements.  Due to UK licensing laws you will need to provide your own drinks whether it be Champagne, Wine or soft drinks.  You must arrange to have them delivered to the Routemaster's base a few days before the hire day so they can be suitably chilled and loaded aboard for the day of the hire. You will also need to provide glasses, but due to safety issues they must be plastic or paper cups, No breakable glass.  On the day, the drinks will be served to your guests by the Bus Crew as they board the bus.  All glasses, empty bottles and any other debris will be collected and disposed of by the Bus Crew at the end of the trip.  The cost of this additional service is £80.

Five stars isn't enough! Every bit of our interaction with Laleen from our first contact to wrapping up on our wedding day was so easy and effortless. Laleen arrived early, removing any stress or anxiety about hitting traffic or being late. He is such a special person and truly went the extra mile to create some magic moments for us that we will cherish forever! The car is every bit as magnificent as you'd expect! Can't recommend Laleen enough - just great!

An amazing day. This was made all the better by the car and more importantly our driver Jerry. He was great. Supportive, reassuring, flexible, accommodating and with a great sense of humour. Thank you Jerry. There was nothing that could have been done to improve our experience. Thank you too Terry.
