Review of London’s 8-hour tour with St. Paul’s, Tower of London, Thames cruise, Buckingham Palace, and optional London Eye.
“We had a great time during this jam packed day in London. We started the day off at the St. Paul's cathedral where our tour guide was very good at explaining intricate details and fun facts about the cathedral. We then headed on to the Buckingham Palace to see the guard change which was very cool. We then went to the London Eye, took a boat ride on the river Thames where we got a nice view of the Tower bridge. From then we went on a nice tour of the Tower of London which was so cool as we got to see the guards ceremony. The day was long…”

See seven Cotswold villages from Oxford in one small-group day, with local stories, free time, and access to lanes larger tours cannot reach.
“Our tour guide Sonya was prompt. Immediately made us feel comfortable on the ride.

I would highly recommend this tour. Sonya was very conscientious in returning some people to train station in time to catch their train. Thank you for a too notch tour.”
