History

Golden Tours was established in 1984, initially operating airport transfers and coach tours to UK spots such as Stonehenge and the Roman Baths for the London tourist market. In 2001, the business of Frames Rickards was acquired, which included the London franchise for Gray Line.

In June 2011, Golden Tours began operating open top bus services within Central London. The Golden Tours open-top bus tour is now included in the London Pass. In early 2012, Golden Tours became the preferred partners of Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter and run an hourly bus service to the studios in Abbots Langley.

As at September 2014, the fleet consisted of 36 buses. To commence the open top services, a fleet of former Stagecoach London Alexander ALX400 bodied Dennis Trident 2s were acquired. These have since been supplemented by Optare Visionaire and MCV DD103 bodied Volvo B9TLs.
