Excellent tour combo!

5.00Kim's tour of the Tower of London was exceptional - his vast knowledge and engaging storytelling transported us through centuries of royal intrigue. Standing within those imposing walls (far larger than they appear from outside!) created a genuine connection to the dramatic history, particularly the haunting tale of the two princes highlighted in that compelling video presentation. The views across modern London also provided a striking contrast to the medieval fortress and made for great family pictures. Afterwards, the City Cruise from Tower Bridge to Westminster was the perfect complement - the crew's witty commentary on the city's architectural evolution made the journey both relaxing and informative. This combination offers tremendous value for experiencing London's historical and contemporary highlights.

5.00There is a lot to see and experience at the Tower. Our excellent tour guide was engaging and informative, recommending the highlights which we found useful as our time there was unfortunately limited to the tour timeframe. On the River Cruise, a crew member delivered a humorous commentary. The main criticism regards the information given for initial meeting - the time was wrong and the meeting place very vague, causing angst.
