The tour

London Highlights

The whole city in one unhurried afternoon. Your chauffeur collects you from your hotel or residence, and you move between the landmarks that matter to you with the car waiting at every stop — no queues for taxis, no walking between quarters of London in the rain.

Why this tour

  • First-time visitors see Westminster, the City and the river in a single sitting.
  • Photo stops are chosen on the day around light, traffic and how much walking you want.
  • Shopping bags, coats and pushchairs stay in the car between stops.

Key stops

  • Westminster, Big Ben and Parliament Square
  • Buckingham Palace and The Mall
  • St Paul's Cathedral and the City
  • Tower Bridge and Tower of London riverside
  • South Bank and Thames viewpoints
