Full description Enjoy a full-day private tour of London's major royal landmarks, accompanied by a Blue Badge guide who will give you a personalised and in-depth experience of the city's most iconic sites. This tour will allow you to explore the best of Westminster, attend the Changing of the Guard, and visit the iconic Tower of London, including the opportunity to admire the Crown Jewels at Jewel House.

Your tour will begin in Westminster, where you will learn about the political history of the famous Parliament Square and admire the imposing Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament from the outside. You will also visit Westminster Abbey, the site of coronations, weddings and royal funerals for centuries.

You will then stroll through St James's Park, where you will see the majestic marble monument to Queen Victoria, located in front of Buckingham Palace. You will then follow the traditional Changing of the Guard, a ceremony full of pomp and pageantry, where you will see the guards in their distinctive red uniforms and bearskin hats. Your tour continues to St James's Palace and Horse Guards Parade, where you can also witness the Changing of the Horse Guards on certain days.

After exploring Whitehall, home to 10 Downing Street, the Prime Minister's official residence, you will arrive at the iconic Trafalgar Square, surrounded by important monuments and museums.

The tour will continue with a scenic boat ride on the River Thames, giving you spectacular views of some of London's most famous landmarks, including St Paul's Cathedral, the Globe Theatre and London Bridge. You will then disembark near Tower Bridge and head to St Katherine's Docks for lunch (not included) before beginning your exclusive tour of the Tower of London.

The Tower of London, a former royal palace and prison for traitors, is one of the most fascinating sites in the city. Here, your guide will take you through the history and legends surrounding this iconic landmark. You can explore the White Tower, the arsenal, the mint, and walk along the battlements that offer panoramic views of the city. You can also enter the torture chambers and visit the Royal Chapel of St. Peter ad Vincula, where the remains of several historical figures are laid to rest.

One of the highlights of the visit will be the entrance to the Jewel House, where the dazzling Crown Jewels are on display. Due to the strict security measures and the moving display system, your guide will not be able to accompany you inside, but will be waiting for you at the exit to conclude the tour.
