Description

Join this original walking tour to see the best selected highlights of the City Of London and get skip-the-line tickets to one of its top attractions: The Shard. See the ancient, mediaeval and the modern side of the English capital. Discover the secrets of the historic centre and its iconic landmarks. Soar high in the sky above the River Thames!

During the 3-hour walking tour you will see the best of London. Stroll around the very heart of the city in the company of an enthusiastic Expert-Guide and discover the most important places. See the Tower Hill Memorial and hear a little bit of WWI and WWII history. Discover the remnants of the city’s Roman heritage by the London Wall and see the monumental Tower Of London, which served as a royal residence to the House of Tudor. Take a stroll along the River Thames and cross the iconic Tower Bridge. Walk past the very modern City Hall and see also the remarkable HMS Belfast, built for the Royal Navy.

The main attraction of this exclusive tour will be a visit to The Shard, also known as the Shard of Glass and the Shard London Bridge. This unique, pointy skyscraper measuring 72-storey is the tallest building in the UK and the 7th tallest in Europe. We provide skip-the-line tickets to the open-air Skydeck on level 72 of The Shard, which offers the best 360-degree view of the London skyline. As the guide will not accompany you inside, you can spend as much time as you want enjoying the views.

Good to know before you go
  • Please check your email the day before the tour to receive important information.
  • Please arrive on time. Being late will affect the schedule as the tickets are purchased for a specific time slot so some of the attractions may be removed from the itinerary or the entire tour being cancelled in case of a delay.
  • Please note that your Private Guide will not enter The Shard with you. They will escort you to the attraction and provide all the necessary information from the outside.
