About
Morning: Explore St Paul’s Cathedral and see Changing the Guard
Hop aboard a private, air-conditioned coach for an early-morning, whistle-stop tour of central London.
Next, explore one of the city’s most magnificent buildings: St Paul’s Cathedral. Step inside Sir Christopher Wren’s architectural masterpiece and discover its striking interior, before climbing up to the Golden Gallery for sweeping views of the capital.
Afterwards, head to Buckingham Palace for a quintessential display of British pomp and pageantry, as you watch the famous Changing the Guard ceremony. See the King’s New Guard exchange duty with the Old Guard – all active British Army soldiers clad in traditional red tunics and bearskin hats. When the ceremony isn't available, the tour visits Horse Guards Parade instead.
Noon: Visit the Tower of London
Make your way to the Tower of London, a royal fortress famous for being the prison (and execution place) of choice of one of Britain’s most notorious monarchs: Henry VIII.
There, you’ll get the chance to go on a one-of-a-kind tour of the palace with a Yeoman Warder, or “Beefeater”. Learn about the Tower’s fascinating history, stand where famous heads have rolled, get to grips with swords and armour, and take a closer look at the priceless Crown Jewels.
Afternoon: Discover the London Eye
Once you're done exploring one of London's most impressive battlements, it's time to hop aboard the shuttle boat from Tower Pier where you'll head to your next stop.
Sit back and enjoy the city’s skyline, before seeing it from above with a thrilling ride on The London Eye.
At 135 metres, this feat of design and engineering is the world's tallest cantilevered observation wheel. The 360-degree views are incredible and the perfect way to round up the afternoon.
