London Tour Itinerary
Tower of London
Following our coach drive past some of London's most famous landmarks including Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament we arrive at the Tower of London where we are met on the middle drawbridge by our very own Yeoman Warder.
Leading us into this world heritage site before it opens to the public our Beefeater will take us on a private guided tour explaining the history behind this fortress of imprisonment and torture.
We are also the first group to see the Crown Jewels before enjoying some free time to explore on our own. Why not visit Traitors Gate, the armouries or the Bloody Tower?
And keep an eye out for the famous Ravens. Tradition has it that if the Ravens leave the Tower the monarch will fall!
Changing Of The Guard
Departing the Tower we head to The Mall to watch the Changing of the Guard ceremony as one of the Queens Household Regiments march from St. James Palace to Buckingham Palace dressed in their world famous tunics and busbies.
If the Changing of the Guard is not taking place you will still see Buckingham Palace and then visit the Horse Guards Parade instead.
Thames River Cruise & Pub Lunch
Next we take a short cruise on the River Thames as we enjoy excellent views of St. Paul's Cathedral and Shakespeare's Globe before heading for a traditional pub lunch in Whitehall, close to Downing Street, the residence of the Prime Minister (food/drink not included).
After lunch we have a photo stop at Westminster Abbey.
St Paul's Cathedral
The afternoon part of the tour begins with a visit to St Paul's Cathedral.
We will explore the masterpiece designed by Wren in 1673 with a professional guide, taking time to listen to the 1695 organ that Mendelssohn once played and visit the tombs of Nelson and Wellington.
There will also be the chance to test the unique acoustics of the Whispering Gallery (not normally visited by other tour groups).
On Sundays when there is restricted viewing at the Cathedral there will be an opportunity to enter and enjoy one of the services.
Afternoon Tea At Harrods
Then we head through Knightsbridge to one of the worlds most famous stores - Harrods, where we finish our day with tea and scones served on the fourth floor terrace restaurant. Tea includes tea, scones, jam and clotted cream. The tour ends at Harrods leaving you free time to explore the store at your leisure - why not visit the fabulous food halls?

Afternoon Tour Of Stonehenge
Following an hours free time for lunch in Victoria, we board our luxury air-conditioned coach and head for the most famous prehistoric monument in the world.
Stonehenge, a world heritage site, stands alone in the vast empty tract of Salisbury plain. Its origins date back nearly 5,000 years and it has been home to pagan religion and spiritual worship, not to be mention public debate ever since.
What was this vast collection of stones intended for? Was it observatory of the moon, a temple to the sun, or an elaborate cemetery? Who were the people who carried and carved these 40 ton rocks? Come and unlock the secrets for yourself and marvel at this remarkable and mysterious feat of ancient engineering and design.
Entrance to the site with audio guide is included.
