Itinerary

Thames River

one hour

Arriving in a classic London black taxi, your private driver/Guide will collect you from your central London hotel, and then you’ll be on your way. Relaxing in the black cab’s comfortable seats, with air-conditioning and a glass panoramic roof, sit back and watch the sights of London pass by as your friendly Guide tells you about this fantastic city – from above and below!
City of London

one hour

While the skyline of London is rightly famous, not so many know about the city’s network of subterranean tunnels – we will stop to explore some of these fascinating tunnels underneath the River Thames, and visit an underground church crypt. Hear about the tunnels’ uses during Victorian times and learn about the secret passageways that were said to be used in the world wars.
The Monument to the Great Fire of London

1 min Admission not included

After exploring below ground, head back into the daylight to continue your journey around central London. Climb the 311-step staircase inside the Monument to the Great Fire of London (or simply, ‘the Monument,’ as Londoners know it) to get great views of the City and get a certificate to prove you did it as well. Your guide will take you through City of London for an incredible view of the dome of St Paul’s Cathedral.
Big Ben

one hour Admission not included

Marvel at Westminster’s skyline from the top of a tower and see top London attractions like Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament from this panoramic vantage point. Your tour can include a tantalizing sight of the River Thames as you cross above it by the new Thames Cable Car (extra charge) that connects London’s Royal Docks to the Royal Borough of Greenwich, on the south side of the river. This is an option to finish the tour here. After four hours of seeing London’s sights from above and below, your tour finishes back in Central London
