    My explanation of how we were steered incorrectly to the wrong bus stops

    UPDATE (JANUARY 2024): WE'VE ASKED MULTIPLE TIMES FOR A REFUND FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND NOT ONLY WERE THEY INCREDIBLY NONCHALANT ABOUT THE WHILE ORDEAL, BUT THEY BLAMED US, THE PAYING CUSTOMERS, FOR THEIR MISHAPS. I HAD TO EVEN GO ON LINKEDIN TO CONTACT A MANAGING DIRECTOR AND EVEN HE PUSHED US TOWARDS CUSTOMER SERVICE. THEY NOT ONLY FAILED TO GET BACK TO US, BUT THEY ABSOLUTELY -WILL NOT- GIVE US OUR REFUND. THERE ARE OTHER BUSINESSES THAT ARE BETTER THAN THIS COMPANY. PLEASE UTILIZE OTHER BUS TOURING PLACES!! THIS IS A BIG WARNING TO YOU!!! Asked for directions to get to a City Sightseeing stop from a representative near London St. Pancras train terminal and was told the wrong directions. Had to call customer service to get the correct bus stop. Waited more than 45 minutes for a bus to arrive and bus driver gave an excuse. Had tickets for Madame Toussands and specifically told drivers and workers we needed to be there by 1:30. With aggravation in their voices, they told us the bus would stop at the museum and they closed at 5pm. In other words, we were told that not only we would make it to Madame Toussands, but would also be dropped off there, so just get on the bus and do the tour. The tour itself was unbearably cold and there's absolutely no heat on the bus. If you need to use the restroom, you have to get off at a stop and then wait a very long time for another bus to arrive, which happened to us. Once back on the bus, we asked the new driver which stop is for Madame Toussands and they told us we would have to get off at stop number 17 and find our own way to the museum. We couldn't get an uber so we had to take a taxi to the museum since it's a 30 minute walk from the City Tour bus stop. Got out of the taxi at 3:45pm only to find out that Madame Toussands was CLOSED. So we had to walk 30 minutes back to the exact spot we caught a taxi. A river cruise was also included in our tickets. New driver rudely said we were not going to make the cruise because of traffic (the cruise stops at 6pm). This was our first time in London and it has been one of the WORST experiences of my life. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

The bikes were solid and perfectly comfortable and there are a lot of cycle lanes in Brighton so it's very safe cycling around, even if you aren't confident about cycling in a city.

    Visitors more familiar with the densely built up City Centre of Brighton and its Georgian…read morearchitecture will be surprised to learn just how many large parks the city has. One of the nicest, and most historic, is Stanmer Park, on the eastern outskirts of the city and adjacent to the lovely campus of the University of Sussex at Falmer. The park is set around Stanmer House, built in 1720 by the first Earl of Chichester, Thomas Pelham. Set in its own little valley, the estate includes Stanmer Village and church: the former a picturesque private village built for the estate's workers, and the latter rebuilt in 1838 when the earlier mediaeval church burned down. As with many such estates, it was planned on the principles of classic English landscape gardening, and consists of sweeping areas of lawn planted with specimen trees, all edged with woodland. Bought by Brighton Council in 1947, the grounds are now open to the public as parkland. The 'village' includes a cafe ('see separate entry under 'Stanmer Tea Rooms') and public toilets. Part of the old stable block now houses a mildly diverting small museum of rural life (free entry but rather limited opening hours) and a nursery which is open to the public, selling a wide range of plants, in what was the house's walled garden (which closes at 16h). The whole ensemble is maybe not quite as well kept as it could be, but it's nice enough. The House itself has been beautifully restored and is let as a conference and private function venue, and some of the main function rooms can be visited (again, for free) when not hired out. It contains a collection of old photographs, but most of the original contents have long since gone - however, the modern furnishings fit in well enough in a 'Country House Hotel' sort of way. However, the main reason for a visit to the Park is just to get some fresh air, in nice surroundings: it's a great place for a game of cricket or rounders, or picnic, or just a woodland walk, and is very popular with students from the nearby University and families in the summer. The park is a 15 minute walk from Falmer station, and 10 minutes from the University, but on summer Sundays and Bank Holidays there is an hourly bus service (route 78) from the centre of Brighton, via the railway station, during the day, right up to the Village and House. Car-parking is in the process of being reorganised, but is normally not a problem unless there is an event taking place.

    Stanmer Park is located just off the A270 between Brighton and Lewes, right next to the University…read moreof Sussex Campus, in the village of Stanmer. It is a lovely place to walk the dog or take the kids for a run around if they need to expel some excess energy! There's a small car park, but be warned this can get packed out pretty quickly, as it seems to serve as an overflow car park for visitors to the village, church and pub! Easily accessible from Falmer village and Sussex campus, Stanmer park provides a really nice, scenic walk- it's not particularly challenging or varied, more of a light stroll around the estate's grounds. I often used to pop over to Stanmer to stretch my legs and get a change of scenery, during my first year at university, it's a really great place to have on your doorstep, which I suspect many students aren't even aware of. If you feel like exploring, you can also wander through the village, where there's a really sweet old church and a pub that do nice food. Stanmer House itself is also quite something to look at and Stanmer Nursery is nestled away at the side and is well worth a visit. This is where the council grow many of the flowers they use in displays all over the city! Oh and if you're interested in Eco living and building, be sure to check out the Earth ship, it's incredible and they do tours!
