After the morning pick up, we depart Victoria and drive through the very heart of central London past some of the key landmarks including Big Ben, The Houses of Parliament and The London Eye before driving along the Embankment with great views of The River Thames.
Following our coach drive past Big Ben and Parliament Square, we arrive at The Tower of London where we are met on the middle drawbridge by our very own Beefeater. Leading us into this world heritage site before it opens to the public our Beefeater will take us on our private guided tour explaining the history behind this fortress of imprisonment and torture. We are also the first group to see the Crown Jewels before enjoying some free time to explore on our own. Why not visit Traitors Gate, the armouries or the Bloody Tower? And keep an eye out for the famous ravens! Tradition has it that if the ravens leave the tower the Monarch will fall!
