See St. Paul’s, Buckingham Palace, the Tower, Thames, and London Eye in one packed day, with transport, tickets, and a guide included.
“This is the most expensive day tour I’ve ever purchased and I’m a frequent traveler. I will say that it wasn’t worth it. The tour guide (lady with the frog umbrella) is very sweet and knowledgeable. She made sure my group stayed together and assisted taking pictures of us. My only concern was that when we arrived at the Tower of London around 12:30, I was suprised when she said it’s the end of the tour and we should continue to explore the Tower (and we did). I just felt like if it’s called a day tour and the tour time is advertised as 8am - 4:30pm, I’m expecting that’s…”

“Conrad is an excellent guide, picking us up very close to where we were staying and making us feel welcome from the start. As a local, he's extremely knowledgeable about the area and was happy to answer any and all questions we had. The tour was spontaneous and personalized at times, going to off-the-path places and spending the amounts of time in each location we wanted. Best of all, he took the time to snap photos of our group at many of the sites and send them to us soon after the tour ended. This tour was worth every penny (and pound) we spent!”

The only thing I would say is even though Barry had a lot to get through it would have been nice to spend a little longer in the museum as we had to rush a little but overall it was a great day”
