Chester Sightseeing Bus

This double-decker open-top sightseeing bus will give you incredible views of the main streets and tourist attractions in this beautiful Roman City.

This route has 15 stops, and you'll be able to hop on and off at each of them as much as you please. You'll be able to see the best-preserved city walls in the UK, the unique medieval Rows, the eye-catching black and white Victorian houses, the renowned racecourse and you can even admire the peaceful River Dee.

On Mondays to Saturdays, the sightseeing bus takes one route, and on Sundays it takes another. You can check the stops and the routes here.

How Does It Work?

The ticket is valid for either 24 hours after being used for the first time. For example, if you use it for the first time on Monday at 3 pm, it will be valid until Tuesday at 3 pm.

During this time, you can hop on and off the bus as much as you want, meaning that you can explore all of the attractions, such as the medieval walls, the Roman amphitheatre or the famous Eastgate clock. Did you know that this is the most photographed clock in England after Big Ben?

Important Info

When you make the booking, we'll send you an email with a voucher which you will have to hand in on the first bus that you take.
