Description

Discover the best of London in one day with a guided tour of the Tower of London, entry to St. Paul's Cathedral, optional London Eye and also enjoy a cruise and bus tour!

First, you'll take part in a panoramic bus tour around London where you'll admire the city's must-see sites and monuments.

You'll then have the opportunity to freely visit St. Paul's Cathedral, which is Sir Christopher Wren's masterpiece and the place where Princess Diana and King Charles were married. You can in particular contemplate the mosaics that adorn its walls, as well as its dome.

You'll then attend the Changing of the Guard ceremony and can take the opportunity to admire Buckingham Palace from the outside (entrance not included).

If you've selected the option with admission to the London Eye, you can then climb aboard this 135-meter-high Ferris wheel. It will allow you to enjoy a panoramic view of London and its monuments from your cabin!

You'll continue your day with a cruise on the Thames, where you'll enjoy privileged views of London and its must-see monuments along the banks of the Thames.

Finally, you'll have the opportunity to take part in an exclusive tour of the Tower of London guided by one of the Yeoman Warders! Since the Tudor era, the Yeoman Warders, also known as the Beefeaters, have guarded the Tower of London. Over its 1,000-year history, this tower has undergone many, many changes. Originally a royal palace, it was later transformed into a prison, then home to a menagerie. Today, you won't come across any animals other than the crows that populate its gardens. Above all, you'll be able to admire the sumptuous jewels of the British Crown and many other treasures!

Snacks and a bottle of water will be provided so you can make the most of your time there!
