A Gurugram-based private tourist company announced a bus service from Delhi to London spanning 18 countries and 20,000 km in 70 days.

It is being deemed as the "first-ever hop-on/hop-off bus service between Delhi and London" called "Bus to London", a company called Adventures Overland announced.

People who take on this tour will travel through Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Russia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium and France.

A 20-seater bus is being designed for this trip. It will also have business class seats.

The company will also take care of the visa arrangements of the passengers.

The trip will be divided into four categories and passengers can choose different destinations according to their liking and convenience while they will have to pay as per the particular package.

If the person chooses London as his final destination, it will cost them Rs 15 lakh per person.

The idea came to fruition after wo travel enthusiasts, Tushar Agarwal and Sanjay Madan, took a road trip to London.

"We planned this trip after a lot of people passionate about travelling expressed their wish for a road trip to London. This was announced on August 15 and we hope that the first bus to London will be flagged off in May 2021. We have not started the registrations due to the coronavirus spread. The registrations will start after taking stock of the coronavirus situation in all the countries." Adventures Overland co-founder Tushar Agarwal told IANS.

He further said that arrangements for passengers' stay will be made in 4-star or 5-star hotels, and the passengers will be provided Indian food in all countries.
