Overview
There’s so much history crammed into this one neighbourhood, you’ll be struggling to keep up. From memorials to greats in Westminster Abbey to the heartbeat of British government in Whitehall to the scene of all action, No. 10 Downing Street…this tour is a fast-paced thriller.
Most-photographed, most-recognised and most-loved, every landmark helps you tick off your entire London-essentials list. Buzz of Trafalgar Square, elegance of St. James's Park, to the glamour of Buckingham Palace, it’s a feast all the way. Broad boulevards, and the vistas long -- the perfect backdrop for the pomp and pageantry of royal occasions. Piccadilly Circus, London Eye, River Thames, Hyde Park, Albert Hall, even Harrods…you’ll forget to look at your phone. We even do 3 UNESCO World Heritage and 2 Tudor Palaces.
Themes vary from British Monarchy’s Royal Palaces to Pomp and Ceremony to UK Parliament and Brexit to Winston Churchill’s Darkest Hour in World War Two. Which will it be for you today?

What an amazing trip out our driver Dave Cannell showed us some lovely places we have never seen. His knowledge of London was totally unbelievable. He showed us some places where Harry Potter was filmed. Every where he took us he told us about the history and heritage. Totally Brilliant tour couldn't have asked for a better tour.

Paul our driver and guide was most charming! Great way to see the city’s highlights when time is not plentiful.
Highly recommend this tour with JP
Published on May, 2024
Highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide, JP, demonstrated excellent knowledge of the city and its history, he was personable, funny, enthusiastic, and made sure we were able to get out of the car for photos in prominent locations. Additionally it was a pleasant surprise how well he timed his drive with the changing of the guard. We were also able to walk around some locations as she shared with us the significance and history of that area. Definitely top notch tour!
Just right!
