Custom Tours London Tourists Love To Recommend

By Mary Wilson


Most people love visiting England and plan to return. There is so much history and beauty to the country that everyone finds things to see, do and explore. There are keeps and castles that go back centuries. The landscape is like something out of a storybook, and the towns with their thatched roof houses are quaint and inviting. It can be overwhelming to decide how to spend your vacation days without taking advantage of the custom tours London visitors love.

There are favorite excursions that touring companies have to offer and one is a day long trek through the city starting at St. Paul's Cathedral. Guests on this tour are there when the doors open and allowed to walk through Christopher Wren's masterpiece. A photo opportunity outside Westminster Abbey is the next stop, and then it is on to the Changing of the Guards at Buckingham Palace.

After lunch you will tour the Tower of London, the place where Henry VIII's second wife, Anne Boleyn, lost her head, and Richard III had the Princes imprisoned. The Crown Jewels are here. You may not have the chance to try them on, but you can get a glimpse at what the Queen has to choose from. After a leisurely trip down the Thames River, it is on to the London Eye. You will take a flight on the highest observation wheel in existence before you end your day.

If you have already taken a tour of this city and have an adventurous spirit, there are specialty excursions that highlight the notorious and mysterious history that surrounds England's capital. You will begin with an open bus tour of the haunted streets of the city and travel to Tower Hill where beheadings routinely took place.

A walk through Smithfield Market is next, and you can have a chance to view the spot where Braveheart was tortured. No tour of this kind would be complete without walking through the alleys where Jack the Ripper murderously ended the lives of eleven prostitutes. This should make you thirsty enough to enjoy a pint at the Sherlock Holmes pub at the end of your evening.

Children and adults of all ages are huge fans of the most famous wizard of all, and a tour of the making of Harry Potter at the Warner Brothers Studio is something not to be missed. You will get to walk through the sets, view original costumes and props, and get the inside story about those amazing special effects and animatronics.

You will have a chance to walk through the train station and get a peek at Platform 9 3/4, step into the menacing Forbidden Forest, and visit the Great Hall. Dumbledore's private office door is be open to you before your stroll down Diagon Alley in search on the best brooms and wands in the wizarding world.

No matter whether you are a first time visitor or have enjoyed the city multiple times, you can find a tour that is perfect for your needs and interests. Each one will show you things you have never seen before. This is truly a city like no other.
