HALF-DAY
AFTERNOON TOUR IN LONDON Tour #2 half-day TOUR OF LONDON (afternoon)
Our half day afternoon tour starts with a 'must', a cruise on the River Thames during which a Thames Waterman will point out the places of interest along the way, such as the Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge and the South Bank. We then disembark at the Tower of London, home to the world-famous Crown Jewels and host to many dark and bloody secrets, you will meet the magnificent Beefeaters, clad in their Tudor uniforms, hear the legend of the ravens and some spine chilling tales from the Tower's 900 year history. See the infamous Bloody Tower where the Princes were murdered, Beauchamp Tower where visitors can read carved inscriptions of past prisoners and Traitors Gate where those unlucky enough not to survive imprisonment had their heads impaled. We have even included entrance to see the Crown Jewels magnificently displayed in the new Jewel House. As the afternoon ends we drive back through the City of London. We see Mansion House (home of the Lord Mayor of London), the Great Lady of Threadneedle Street (The Bank of England) and also see St. Paul's Cathedral before commencing our drop-offs.
There will be plenty of opportunities to take photographs. This tour departs from Thistle Grosvenor Victoria Hotel at 01:00pm.
