This was an amazing tour. Very fast and able to see a lot. The guide was a little serious at times. Sometimes a girl needs a bathroom.

Enjoyed this full day tour. Changing of the guard didn’t happen that day. Disappointed but knew it was a possibility. Learned many interesting historical facts about London. My favorite was St Paul’s Cathedral. Had been there several times, but never knew the story of the section dedicated to the American WW2 war dead. Beautiful. The river cruise was especially great because of the narration by the Captain. All in all a day well spent! Thank you!

Our guide was delightful! I wish I could remember her name. She was so detailed and funny and kept us moving. Great tour! Don’t miss it!
