What To Expect
St. Paul's Cathedral
St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, designed by Sir Christopher Wren, is an iconic masterpiece of English Baroque architecture. Completed in 1710, its majestic dome dominates the city's skyline. The cathedral serves as a symbol of resilience, notably surviving the Blitz during World War II. Rich in history, it has hosted royal weddings, state funerals, and jubilees. Inside, stunning mosaics, the Whispering Gallery, and its crypt inspire awe and reflection.
Big Ben
Big Ben, the iconic clock tower in London, is a symbol of British culture and history. Officially known as the Elizabeth Tower, it stands adjacent to the Houses of Parliament and was completed in 1859. Its massive clock faces and resounding chimes, especially the hourly "bong," are renowned worldwide. Restored in recent years, Big Ben combines Gothic Revival architecture with intricate craftsmanship, making it a timeless landmark and a beacon of tradition.

5.00Matt was an incredible guide, friendly, and very knowledgeable. He took fantastic photos throughout the tour and made everyone feel comfortable and included. His communication was excellent too; when I was late, he quickly sent clear directions with time stamps, which helped me catch up with the group in just minutes. The tour itself was really well-organized and informative, offering plenty of insights while still being fun and engaging. It was easy to follow, and the whole experience felt seamless from start to finish. I left with great memories (and photos!) and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting.

Matt our tour guide was very knowledgeable and informative throughout the tour.
