Custom Tours London Tourists Love To Recommend

By Mary Wilson


Visiting England should be on the wish list for everyone who loves to travel. It is brimming with ancient histories, wars, royalty, and international intrigue. The thatched cottages look like pictures in a children's storybook. If you have plans to visit the capital for the first time or the fiftieth, it might be a good idea to sign up for the custom tours London visitors raves about.

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.

The ravens will greet you at the infamous Tower of London, the last home of Anne Boleyn and the Princes in the Tower. This is where the Crown Jewels are kept, and you will have a chance to view them on your way to the White Tower. A leisurely boat ride down the Thames will give you spectacular views of this city. Finally it is time to fly up and away on the London Eye, the highest observation wheel on the planet.

Repeat visitors, looking for an adventurous and fascinating tour of the seamy side of old England, can take one of several excursions that highlight London's mysterious and notorious past. The tour begins with an open double decker bus tour through the city's haunted streets to Tower Hill, infamous for the routine beheadings that occurred there.

Next you'll take a walk through the notorious Smithfield Market and see where Braveheart was tortured. As the day winds down, it will be time to walk the alley ways where Jack the Ripper performed his macabre murders. Once you have completed that tour, you will be ready to relax at the Sherlock Holmes pub and discuss with the other tour members who Jack really was.

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.

The Great Hall and Dumbledore's private office are open to visitors, and a new and improved train station now gives everyone a chance to stand on Platform 9 3/4. You can purchase your own Quidditch broom and wizarding wand at the shops along Diagon Alley and use them for protection as you enter the Forbidden Forest.

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.
