Doing what: The Original London Sightseeing Tour: Hop-on Hop-off
It was my last day in London and I had booked the tour two days back. In 5 hours, I have already visited and learned a lot about London. It was very exciting as I was free to stop and go wherever I want and to travel back by the double decker bus. During that day we started from Piccadilly circus and visited the Big Ben and Parliament, The London Eye, St Paul Cathedral, the London Bridge, The Tower Bridge, The Tower of London, The Buckingham Palace etc... I also enjoyed the free Thames River Cruise between Westminster and Tower Bridge

Doing what: Skip the Line: Tower of London Tickets
This is a must to see. We got to see the Crown Jewels and that was amazing. Now it was very busy the Tower of London and we got there at 11.00am but thank god we had already purchased tickets. You can follow a tour guide inside but there was so many people around him you couldn't hear him talking but when you go inside the walls there is a little shop on the right and you can buy these audio guides and just listen to them as you walk around they are really handy. They cost £11.00.

Best part of the trip to London was the visit to the Tower of London. Take the tour provided by the Beefeater who provides interesting pieces of history and insight into the tower's history.

Getting to the Tower of London early was a huge benefit in beating the crowds but this tour doesn't allow nearly enough time there. We managed to view only a small section of the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace (full time required is hour and half!) before spending time at Covent Garden for lunch. Our guide, David, was very informative on London's history, Westminster Cathedral and the Houses of Parliament and St Paul's Cathedral. The London Eye was a great addition to this trip and a good way to get an overall picture of London.

Doing what: Thames River Cruise, Tower of London and City of London Tour
We enjoyed the tour. The history of the Tower of London was very interesting and our tour guide was well informed. I liked the fact that the boat ticket was good for another day. We had just arrived from the states in the morning and we needed a nap more than a boat ride. We took the river cruise a few days later and enjoyed it.

Tower of London was fantastic, you can pick up a tour every 30 minutes! So easy to get the tickets, what a British landmark it is. Impressive in stature, and the crown jewels are truly amazing.

Doing what: Ghost Walking Tour of London Including River Thames Boat Ride
The tour guide met us at the agreed spot and was very punctural, welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. Our experience with the Ghost Walking Tour was very entertaining. We were taken to the most haunted spots in London and given all the details of the hauntings. We used the Underground once and also moved efficiently to the Tower of London on a Thames boat cruise. Our guide was a wealth of information and answered all of our questions as well as providing lots of information about the ghosts of London. Very very enjoyable experience. As well, when we called the local contact number to confirm our reservations once we were in London, we met with very friendly, efficient and helpful service. Everything advertised was delivered.

My husband and I travelled to the Tower of London in June 2012. We had a great time. The skip the line tickets allowed us to bypass the regular ticket line and enter where the groups do. Before we knew it we were waiting for the Beefeater tour to start. When you have limited time in a given place, the skip the line tickets are a great way to take in all of the sites.

This was a terrific tour and the guide was very engaging. It was great having an early entry into the Tower of London. St paul's was magnificent.
Add the afternoon tea at Harrods for a very upscale presentation of food and drink. A tiring journey but well worth the time and effort.

The Tower of London was not crowded the day we visited, so the "skip the line" was really not advantageous. I can see where it would be helpful on the busier days. This is a very neat tour.

Doing what: Skip the Line: Tower of London Tickets
Booking through Viator was painless, easy and the best thing we could have done before traveling to London. Using the tickets once there was a breeze, and all the tour guides (especially Richard our Hop on/Hop off tour guide, and Lee the driver were awesome), along with the Beefeaters at the Tower of London were very knowledgeable and made the trip all the more worth while. I would definitely use Viator again for our next vacation!

We really enjoyed seeing the Tower of London. Skipping the line is a plus although the line wasn't very long when we got there. We took the "beefeater" tour which is free and not only was it informative but very entertaining as well.

Wonderful and extremely interesting tour. We saw all the London "tourist" spots from the Tower of London to St. Peters Cathedral. Our tour guide, Sev, knew so many interesting facts and was truly concerned about each of us. The day ended with a ride on the London Eye. Terrific tour with an awesome guide.
