Privat heldagstur i London med fod og offentlig transport
Beskrivelse
Se London som londonerne gør – hurtigt, sjovt og fuld af historier. Med din private guide, der fører vejen, vil du glide ned i gamle stenede gader, skimme over den berømte Themsen og ride en klassisk rød dobbeltdækket bus. Start i Westminster under Big Ben og House of Parliament, derefter svejse langs Mall mod Buckingham Palace og langt ud over. Undervejs møder du soldater, helte og skurke, afslører historier om skandale, magt, oprør og imperium og hopper mellem busser, rør og både for at afsløre både ikoniske seværdigheder og de skjulte perler, som lokalbefolkningen elsker. Dette er et praktisk eventyr, hvor Londons fortid og nutid kolliderer ved hver tur. Forvent livlig fortælling, fascinerende lokale indsigter og masser af tid til fotos, spørgsmål og spontane opdagelser. Fra store vartegn til det daglige liv i London, der udfolder sig omkring dig, fanger denne tur byens energi, humor og karakter. Denne tur er kun med en guide. Privat transport er ikke inkluderet.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Hør historierne om Slottets berømte beboere gennem tiderne, og hvorfor det i virkeligheden slet ikke er et palads.
De bedste udsigtspunkter til dronningens London-residens, Buckingham Palace, kan findes her sammen med historier om hemmelige krigstidstunneler under fødderne.
Vi vil se prins Charles og Camillas residens ved siden af St James Palace
Dronningemoderens og prinsesse Dianas residens for en tid stopper vi uden for paladset for at diskutere den kongelige intriger, der fandt sted her.
Besøg den "smukkeste park i London" for en fantastisk fotomulighed.
Nok en af de vigtigste kirker i landet. Kroningssted, kongelige bryllupper og begravelser, sidste hvilested for Charles Dickens, Isaac Newton, Elizabeth I og Bloody Mary.
En tidligere skjult bunker, hvor Churchill og hans kabinet mødtes under 2. verdenskrig.
Se, hvor premierministeren bor lige her i hjertet af hovedstaden.
Klap Dronningens Heste og få Wardens til at grine... hvis du kan. Endnu en klassisk fotomulighed.
Det bliver ikke mere ikonisk end Big Ben. Lær alt om historien om dette berømte vartegn.
Det vestlige demokratis vugge og stedet for den berømte Krudtplot - stop her for en ekstern rundvisning i en af de mest berømte institutioner i politik.
Den mægtige Thames - når tiden tillader det, kan vi hoppe på en kort pendlerbåd og se London fra dens berømte vandvej, mens vi diskuterer, hvordan denne vandstrækning hjalp med at bygge et imperium.
Hjertet af hovedstaden, hvor londonere kommer for at fejre, sørge og protestere i tider af national betydning.
Vi vil stoppe her for at fastslå, at den ikke falder ned og diskutere, hvordan en del af broen endte i Arizona.
Stå uden for en af Londons ældste pubber, mens din guide deler historier om litterære legender, middelalderlige Fleet Street og århundreder af ale-blød historie.
Pause uden for Sweeney Todd's pie shop som mørke legender og viktorianske melodrama kommer til live.
Den anden mest berømte kirke i landet, som var vært for det fantastiske bryllup mellem prins Charles og prinsesse Diana, og som Churchill forsvarede mod alle odds under Blitz i Anden Verdenskrig.
Her vil vi vise dig, hvor en bager engang efterlod en ovn på, der ødelagde byen i den store brand - den dræbte også alle rotterne, hvilket praktisk talt afsluttede den frygtede pest.
Endnu et klassisk vartegn, der spænder over den ikoniske Themsen.
Legendarisk og berygtet - de fleste, der gik herind, gik aldrig ud. Nyd en omfattende udvendig rundvisning i denne bastion af britisk historie.

The tour operator gave us information prior to departure date, which was very helpful plus we needed to make a change and they were fabulous and very quick to replay and give options. The guide, Joe was knowledgeable, fun, and accommodated chances since it was private and only the 2 of us. Definitely recommend this group.
Great experience from being contacted in advance from tour operator with changes and details. Our guide Joe was knowledgeable and allowed us to make some tweaks since it was a private tour. Definitely, would recommend them.
We loved seeing London with Tom. He was friendly, funny, super knowledgeable and young! We saw every corner of London and more than we could ever have found on our own, he even found us an authentic tea shop and introduced us to his market stall "mates". Top marks for an awesome day with an awesome guide!
I paid $1275USD for a private full day tour of London for my family of 6 including my 85 year old parents. The ad showed a Mercedes Sprinter van, they asked for the pick-up hotel and time which we provided. On the day of the tour our guide arrived at our hotel and asked us if we were ready to begin our full day walking tour of London. When we told the guide that we had booked a private tour in a van he replied, “that’s usually what happens but today the company told him it was a walking tour and no vans were available.” We call the tour operator who told us “that it was a walking tour” when I asked were in the ad did it specify a walking tour she was unable to provide an answer other than she would have her manager call me. They did not. Their ad clearly showed a Mercedes van and while it may not have explicitly said your by van, it did elude to that. It is clearly a case of false advertising. We cancelled the tour before it began and asked American Express to refund the charge. I am very upset that our plans for the day were ruined by an unscrupulous predatory tour operator and aviator should immediately remove them from their site or demand that they are clear in their ad. Even our hotel concierge said that $1275USD would not be an appropriate fee for anything other than by van even during peak season.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are saddened to hear you were disappointed with your booking experience. We understand you are frustrated that you booked the wrong tour - we offer driving tours and guide only tours. You selected the guide only tour which has a lower price. There is no photo of a Mercedes Sprinter or any vehicle on any of our tour pages and never has been - perhaps you have confused us with another company. In addition, nowhere in the tour description does it indicate or imply that a vehicle is included. When our guide arrived to pick you up, we understand you were angry that he did not have a vehicle with him. You did not want to do the tour, you sent the guide away and asked for a full refund. It is clear you were upset with the rate you had paid and were impatient on the phone with our colleague. Rather than asking us to help out for your mistake, you insisted that our tour description and price somehow indicated there was a vehicle and that it was our fault that you were expecting one. Under these circumstances we were not able to issue you a full refund for cancelling the tour when the guide showed up and I understand this has frustrated you further. We are saddened that anyone should be upset after an experience with us and it is unfortunate that you were unable to join us and enjoy the tour you had booked. We wish you well for future travels and would advise for future bookings to read the tour description and inclusions/exclusions to ensure you are booking the right tour for your needs and budget.
We loved covering so much of London with Alex and his knowledge of the sites and the history. We saw most of the Must See London sites and look forward to a return to see more. It was a delightful sunny day to tour London on the Tube and on foot! Strongly recommend this if your time is limited and you want to see as much as possible in 8 hours!
It’s been two weeks since we visited London and a top highlight of our visit was Ollie. We booked a walking tour of London and had a group of nine ranging in ages from 17-77. The tour was amazing-so many fun facts about London of today and London of old. We walked over 23,000 steps - the weather was cool & rainy- despite the weather conditions it was the best tour ever. Ollie made the tour and has ruined us for any other tour guides. Our entire trip when we took a tour everyone commented that the guide was good, but he is no Ollie. We started in the morning visiting Hyde Park and all its splendor so many facts were shared. The stories and history brought to life what we were seeing. Had we gone to Hyde Park without Ollie we would have missed a lot. Then we visited so many landmarks Kensington Palace, Buckingham, monuments, Christmas markets, London bridge, watched a little football at a pub. At the end of the day, we all came away from the tour smarter, and with a new appreciation of London and all of her history. We had a diverse age group ranging many generations and we all agree that the walking tour was top of our list of favorite things. Request Ollie - you will not regret it!
Larry did a great job of showing us some of the highlights of London. He was able to accommodate our requests and fit in some of the most popular attractions while also showing us a lot of little things we would've missed trying to do on our own. My favorite parts were the small shops and random pieces of history around every corner which Larry could expertly point out- things you don't get in a larger tour group. He was able to recommend a great place for lunch and worked out the perfect itinerary for us to maximize our day while being flexible enough to let us move at our own pace. Overall an awesome experience!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are delighted you had such a great time with Larry and hope we can welcome you back to the Big Smoke in the future!
This tour was AMAZING from start to finish. I can not recommend our tour guide Larry highly enough. His knowledge and personality made the tour. The tour covered all of the highlights of London and the insight we received made us appreciate every minute
