Description
Take in some of London’s most famous sights during a day filled with a private tour of the Tower of London, a river cruise on the Thames, and a visit to St. Paul's Cathedral. Along the way see city highlights including the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben.
The morning part of the tour begins with a visit to St. Paul’s Cathedral, where you enter as its doors open. Listen to the 17th-century organ that Mendelssohn once played, see medieval relics in the crypt below, and visit the tombs of famous historical figures.
On Sundays, when viewing is restricted, you can enter the cathedral for one of the services.
After leaving St. Paul’s Cathedral, the tour heads to Buckingham Palace, the London residence of the Queen, to watch the changing of the guard. If the changing of the guard is not taking place you’ll still go to Buckingham Palace for a photo stop.
In the afternoon the tour continues with a visit to the Tower of London, built in 1066 by William the Conqueror. Your guide will regale you with fascinating insights into the history of this Royal Palace and fortress.
Ample time will be given to view the Crown Jewels and the White Tower and to wander around this imposing fortress.
Next, enjoy a guided private boat trip on the River Thames and admire excellent views of Tower Bridge, St. Paul's Cathedral, London Bridge, and Shakespeare's Globe from the river.
The spectacular finish to the day’s tour is a flight on the London Eye.
- The Changing the Guard at Buckingham Palace currently takes place on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday (subject to availability). When there is no Changing of the Guards we still stop for a photo outside/near the Palace.
- On Wednesdays when St. Paul’s opens late (10am) the tour will not include the Guard Change but instead will have a photo stop outside Buckingham Palace first thing in the morning.
- On Sundays there will be no guiding inside St. Paul's Cathedral due to church services.
