Today's harbour scour in full flow. It will next happen on Tuesday 12th November at 1230 and is well worth seeing.

It's our final week of running our daily open-top bus tours of the city. Grab a ticket and join us for a breezy/bracing/sunny (maybe all three in one day) tour of #Bristol and hear some stories about this fascinating place.

During the 18th & 19th centuries, metal plaques such as this on the former chippy at the bottom of Christmas Steps were installed to buildings to prove the residents had paid their insurance to private firefighting companies who’d only put out fires of those who’d paid their fees

Sadly, for the fourth time in two years, one of the benches outside our entrance has been vandalised.

The two benches were presented to the people of Bristol by Post Office workers in memory of their colleagues who died in World War II. The benches are therefore, war memorials.

TUES 22ND OCT Unfortunately one of our buses experienced mechanical probs & had to be returned to the garage. Only our bus 1 will be running this afternoon. This leaves our stop 1 at 13:25, 14:55 & 16:25.  Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Loved the 'Morbid Curiosity' tour at @ArnosValeCem last night. Such fascinating stories and great Guides. This is such a unique and special place in our city offering us a view into the past in a stunning setting. #ArnosVale #VisitBristol #GuidedTour

We've been notified that Bridge Valley Rd will be closed this weekend due to an overhanging boulder being dealt with! Our bus will be re-routed, none of our stops are affected but our bus may be slightly later than timetabled due to the diversion #opentopbustour #bristol
