Anyone who has ever wanted to inject their dog's life with some culture need look no further. A free bus tour designed specifically for canines² hits the streets of London this week.

 

想给自家狗狗的生活注入点儿文化气息的狗主人可以得偿所愿了。伦敦本周开通了专为狗狗设计的免费巴士游。
 

 

Owners and their pets are invited to experience a whistle-stop sightseeing trip around the capital complete with stop-offs for walkies, at pooch-friendly restaurants and at attractions with a canine¹ theme.

 

The bus route sees dogs taken to some of London's best parks and city centre walking spots, including Hyde Park, Kensington Palace Gardens and Green Park.

 

Along the way, live on-board commentary for dog owners lifts the lid on London's rich canine history, including spotlights³ on the ministerial dogs of Downing Street, the many corgis that have shared Buckingham Palace with the Queen and the location of London's only dog cemetery⁴.

 

The route itself centres on a number of London's most scenic⁵ dog-walking hotspots, including Hyde Park and Green Park, for owners to disembark the bus and take their pooch for a stroll if they choose.

 

Guests will also be provided with a handy leaflet mapping dog-friendly pubs, bars and restaurants in the area, where owner and their pets can refuel together post-walk.

 

Over the course of the hour-long route, the customised London Routemaster, aptly numbered the K9, will also drive past an array of points of interest with a connection to dogs in the city, with expert insight provided throughout by the on-board commentator⁶.
