In a day's tour we will be seeing London's major landmarks. With the right timing we could also catch up with activity around Buckingham Palace and Horseguards Parade. I would also expect to see St Paul's Cathedral and Trafalgar Square. A word to the wise - I don't recommend actually visiting more than two sites in a day as this can be a bit of an overload, as a visit, takes around 2 hours. I have lived in London throughout my adult life, most of which was spent as a Scotland Yard Detective. I am also a trained London Blue Badge Guide, so with these skills combined, have an almost unique perspective and with a Blue Badge, I am able to guide within the Tower of London and Westminster Abbey. London is the capital city of England and the centre of government for the United Kingdom. There are certain parts of the City, where you'll find that each cobblestone and brick can tell a story. If you look carefully, you will find evidence of that history and I'll help you find it and understand its significance.
We will meet at your hotel or a railway station if you are staying on the outskirts of London. After seeing the Houses of Parliament and Downing Street we will head to St James's Park to the best vantage points for the Changing of the Guard, (subject to availability as its times vary day to day). - This will be the most walking we'll do in the day (Around 2hrs). From there we will head to Westminster Abbey, the church that has played host to coronations and Royal Weddings for a thousand years. Time then for a spot of lunch at a London pub, street market, Fish and Chip Shop, or a relaxing restaurant. (We will travel there by bus or underground). After lunch we will take a bus or the tube east to the City of London, and the the Tower of London at the City's edge where, we have the option to tour the Tower and see the Crown Jewels. (20-30 mins travelling) This tour as a whole or partially, will be customized to fit your preferences, your timing and your budget - you just have to ask and I'll make it work.
