Eye-to-eye with London
Begin your tour by strolling around Westminster, the political heart of London. The local guide will share interesting stories and facts about the area, and uncover hidden gems that most tourists miss.
As you navigate the city streets, you'll marvel at the grandeur of Buckingham Palace, and on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, you get to witness the famous Changing of the Guard ceremony. You'll also explore Downing Street, the residence of the British Prime Minister since 1735, and the stunning Westminster Abbey, a place of worship, celebration, ceremony, and burial ground for over a thousand years.
No visit to London would be complete without a glimpse of the iconic Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. This architectural masterpiece situated on the banks of the River Thames is a sight to behold. Also on the itinerary is the London Eye, a cantilevered observation wheel that provides stunning panoramic views of the city, and the lush green spaces of St James Park and Green Park.
Standing tall at Tower Bridge
After you've enjoyed walking with your guide through those sights, you will proceed to Tower Bridge, a site in London that you must not miss. You have access to different exhibitions and interactive displays with your ticket, so explore at your own pace. One of the fascinating things you will get to see here is the Victoria Engine Rooms which has a plethora of the city's rich industrial heritage. You can find preserved steam and diesel engines, generators, and other machinery from the Victorian era here. Once you've explored that, you can find yourself at the 42-meter-high glass walkway from where you can spot St. Paul's Cathedral, and the London Eye among others. Explore leisurely before heading back and make the most of your tour in these 5 hours.
