Great for a high level quick visit to as much as you can do in a day! - If you only have one day to see everything in London, this tour is perfect. Time flies, and attractions close early — so you have to move fast! I saw a few reviews saying it was hard to find the boat, but our guide clearly explained where to go. The tour guide doesn’t go on the boat with you, but gives clear directions beforehand. Some people still seemed confused, but only if you really need someone to walk you there. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we had a great experience. Unfortunately, our driver needed his help a few times, which took a bit of time away from his commentary — but he still did a fantastic job. Overall, it’s definitely worth it if you want to see multiple major sights in one day and have your entrance tickets and transportation all taken care of.

Worth the price - A very good all-round experience if you only have a short time in London. Was able to see most of the main sights during the driving portion and then had time to tour St. Paul's Cathedral and London Tower. Ended with the Thames River Boat Tour and the London Eye. The only thing to watch for is that the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace does not occur every day, so if that is a must-see for you, take this tour on one of the days that the Changing of the Guard occurs (currently Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday). If possible, getting a tour with Omar as the guide is highly recommended. His knowledge of London history was extremely impressive, and he made the tour fun for all.

Lots of time on the bus,... - Lots of time on the bus, but that's London traffic. David was very knowledgeable and an excellent guide. We saw about as much as you can see in a day!

Outstanding Tour - This tour was awesome. Takes you all over the greater London area with stops at the Tower of London, St. Paul's, the Changing of the Guard, and finished with the river tour. Our guide, Leslie, kept up informed from both a historical and current perspective. Highly recommended for any visit to London.

This is a good way to see... - This is a good way to see the area in one day. Our guide seemed to stretch out her stories to make the stops longer. For those of us wanting to catch the eye she could have given us the option to see the tower of London on our own as soon as we got to that stop.

Great tour to explore London - We had an incredible experience on the **London in 1 Day Tour**! Our guide, **Leslie**, was outstanding — so knowledgeable about London’s history and traditions, and always willing to answer our many questions with patience and enthusiasm. The itinerary was fantastic: from witnessing the majesty of **Buckingham Palace** and the **Changing of the Guard**, to exploring the **Tower of London**, and marveling at the beauty and resilience of **St. Paul’s Cathedral**. Each stop brought the city’s rich history to life, and Leslie’s insights made it all the more meaningful. Even though the **Thames River Cruise** and the **London Eye** were on our own, they made for a perfect and memorable closing to the day. 🚤🎡 This tour gave us a wonderful taste of London in just one day, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Left at the Tower - The tour was interesting. We saw and learned a lot. The tour leader was quite knowledgeable. Unfortunately, she was somewhat condescending. It rained for half the day, which left out some things to see. Did not enjoy lunch break sitting in tour company's lounge with only one toilet. Did not appreciate being left at Tower of London to end the tour. We took the river cruise which we we enjoyed. However, we were not able to ride the London Eye as it was not running due to rain. I still have the tickets. Also, taxis are not available around Parliament. We had to walk for many blocks to find one in the rain. We ended the day completely exhausted.

Left behind - Our tour guide (Norma) deserted us at the end near the Tower of London. My partner couldn’t keep up and she just left us in the distance.
