7. We collect you from your Hotel or any other place by arrangement, and your tour starts the moment you get aboard You will be the only party on our tour meaning that you can stop for longer or shorter periods at the attractions, get dropped off at the theatre or a West End restaurant afterwards. Starting at 9.00 am, we make our way through to Westminster Abbey. Here we will have ample opportunity to take photographs of the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben before entering the Abbey

9. But we must not dwell to long at the Palace as Tower of London beckons On our drive from Buckingham Palace to the Tower, we we will pass the home of the Prime Minister in Downing Street, the Horse Guards at Horse Guards Parade and along the Thames Embankment
10. There will be a chance to see Shakespeare's Globe Theatre- maybe a tour for another day? We will also pass The Monument where the Great Fire of London started in 1666, and finally arrive at the Tower of London. The Tower is steeped in history and many of the places you can visit inside the grounds are over 700 years old. The tour of the Tower of London last between 90 minutes and two hours, and when you have finished there is still plenty more of London to see. Within walking distance of the Tower there is Tower Bridge and also nearby is part of the Roman Wall, which surrounded London 1800 years ago.
11. Now it is back on the road again, passing Lloyds of London, the London Stock Exchange, and the Bank of England and St Paul's Cathedral. Continuing with the tour we will drive around Trafalgar Square and see Nelson's Column, drive down The Mall and visit St James's Palace and then Kensington Palace, the Royal Albert Hall and Albert Memorial. The tour should finish at 5.00 pm at your Hotel, but if all that history has made you hungry why not let us drop you off at Porters English Restaurant in Covent Garden for a traditional English Meal.
