ITINERARY
The West End, the East End, the Royal Quarter and the Square Mile, complete with a choice of interior guided tours. Laugh, gasp and shake your head as you listen to the amazing tales that tie in with the wonderful sights of London.

Morning
We start with a panoramic tour of London’s famous ‘West End’, including Big Ben, Trafalgar Square and Harrods. Then we have a choice of interior visits: take a guided tour of the world famous Westminster Abbey where kings and queens have been crowned for a thousand years. It was also the venue for Princess Diana’s memorable funeral. Discover the gothic labyrinth of royal tombs as well as the final resting places of Newton, Darwin and Dickens. Alternatively, visit the amazing Churchill War Rooms, former British WWII underground HQ and now a fascinating time capsule.

Next, there’s a stop at Buckingham Palace to see the climax of the splendid Changing-of-the-Guard ceremony: all the Queen’s horses and all the Queen’s men in a centuries-old pageant of colour. Your guide will bag you the best spot for photos and regale you with regal tales.

Afternoon
In the afternoon the tour heads for the old City of London. Have lunch in the shadow of St Paul’s Cathedral, hear how London Bridge fell down, and uncover Jack the Ripper’s old haunting ground in the East End.

Then… it’s off with your head… as we explore the Tower of London. See the Crown Jewels, king of bling! Wince at the incredible cruelty of Henry VIII, sigh at the tragic tale of Anne Boleyn, and smile with a superb photo opportunity in front of Tower Bridge. Alternatively, take an interior tour of St Paul's Cathedral or the Tower Bridge itself. Finally, a boat trip on the River Thames or a flight on the London Eye can be included to finish off your tour.
