Full description

Visit the Tower of London, where the magnificent crown jewels are housed. This complex of stone buildings has been a palace, a prison, a zoo, a royal mint, and the place of bloody public executions (including those of two of King Henry VIII's wives). Get an up-close glimpse of the Crown Jewels. Explore the maze of streets and alleyways within London's historical heart and pass by landmarks such as the Bank of England, Mansion House, and the Monument to the Great Fire of London. Finally, reach the River Thames and see Tower Bridge, London’s most iconic bridge. You may be lucky enough to see the bridge use its hydraulic system to open up and allow boats to cruise beneath. End the tour with a marvelous cruise on the River Thames. See monuments and landmarks such as London Bridge, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, Millennium Bridge, Waterloo Bridge, St Paul's Cathedral, Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and the London Eye.

I, who am American, Accidentally booked the Spanish tour... I was at first Taken Back by my mistake, then the nice woman who was leading the group assured me that everything was going to be ok. She would come to me and give me instructions in English even though I was the only English speaking guest. The woman (tour guide) was great! Had the best time. And made a few friends along the way!! Definitely recommend this tour.

The guide who was very good to us. He explained very well and knows the history of England. But I find it expensive for the service, where they do not include any type of food and drink, the walk along the river is only back to one direction.

Fortunately I have met again with the same guide I had yesterday, Patricia, who is a charm, goes out of her way for the group, goes out of her way to give us all kinds of information and details and is full of wisdom and knowledge as well as transmits security and is the result that the excursion is perfect and maybe other days will also change it but I already have to talk about Patricia who has been exceptional
