based on Your morning tour will take you past all the famous sights around London's West End, including Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, Whitehall, Downing Street, Trafalgar Square and Nelson's Column. Included is a guided tour of St Paul's Cathedral and a stop at Buckingham Palace for the Changing of the Guard.
The tour begins with a panoramic drive around Parliament Square, to see Westminster Abbey, where many of our Kings, Queens, Statesmen, poets and writers are buried. See Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament.
A guided tour of Sir Christopher Wren's masterpiece - St Paul's Cathedral - crowned by the magnificent dome that is so much a part of the London skyline. The Cathedral was rebuilt after the Great Fire of London in 1666. In recent years it has seen the wedding of Charles, Prince of Wales, to Lady Diana Spencer and, most recently, the thanksgiving services for both the Golden Jubilee and 80th Birthday of Her Majesty the Queen.
Next see the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace in all its colorful pageantry and ceremony set to the stirring tunes of the Regimental band - don't forget your camera!
Back on the coach, travel through the aristocratic area of Mayfair and head for the lights of Piccadilly Circus, the heart of London's West End where cinemas, historic theatres, nightclubs, restaurants and bars jostle for space on the streets of the City reputed to be paved with gold!
