Attraction Description

This tour will allow you to visit the major London’s attractions and help visitors to enjoy one of the best cities on earth.
The Tower of London and Crown Jewels
The tour will give you the chance to be on the site before it opens to the public where the Beefeater will take you on a private guided tour explaining the history of the Tower of London. Founded by William the Conqueror in 1066-7 and enlarged by successive sovereigns, the Tower of London is one of the world's most famous and spectacular fortresses. Over the past 1000 years it has been a Royal Palace, an armoury and a place of imprisonment and execution. The Beefeaters who guard the Tower will regale you with stories of its past. You will visit the Crown Jewels, including the magnificent solid-gold crown used at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, the enormous Cullinan diamonds and the extraordinary Koh-i-Noor.
Changing The Guard

St Paul's Cathedral
The afternoon will begin with a  guided visit of Sir Christopher Wren's masterpiece St Paul's Cathedral - crowned by the magnificent dome that is so much a part of the London skyline.

In recent years it has seen the wedding of Charles, Prince of Wales, to Lady Diana Spencer and, most recently, the thanksgiving services for both the Golden Jubilee and 80th Birthday of Her Majesty the Queen. The visit also included the unique access to 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.
