London: Ultimate One-Day Tour with Tower, Abbey & Cruise｜United Kingdom

See London from every angle on this complete, full-day tour, exploring on foot, by water & even from above. This tour covers more ground than any other.

Your morning starts near Westminster Abbey, where you'll catch a glimpse of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, before entering the Abbey at opening time to go directly to the Coronation Chair (8:45 AM & 9:00 AM tours only). Learn about the history of the building—England’s most important church—and visit the final resting places of a few of the countless monarchs and luminaries buried inside, from kings and queens to great writers and scientists.

It’s a short walk from there to see the impressive exterior of Buckingham Palace, the official London residence of the monarch since 1837, before swinging by the Horse Guards Parade, home to the lesser-known but arguably more impressive King's Life Guard, before visiting Trafalgar Square.

After a break for lunch, you’ll board a Thames sightseeing cruise complete with lively and entertaining commentary from the crew. It's a fun and relaxing way to journey to your last visit of the day, one that's sure to be a highlight: the Tower of London. With pre-reserved tickets, you’ll get inside quickly to enjoy a tour of its fascinating (and sometimes gruesome) history.

Your full-day London tour comes to an end at the Jewel House inside the Tower. While your guide can't accompany you inside to see the Crown Jewels, they'll give you a primer on the top pieces to look out for and their significance so you can check them out on your own.

Please note: Guests selecting London in a Day from the Tower option will visit the same attractions and enjoy the same inclusions as the standard tour, but in the reverse order, starting at the Tower of London and ending at Westminster Abbey.

Please note: Only the 8:45 AM & 9:00 AM tours will include skip-the-line entry and a guided tour of Westminster Abbey. The 10:00 AM tour does not include entry, but your guide will give an introduction to the Abbey from the exterior.
