Summary Description

Greet your courteous driver at your centrally located London hotel and climb aboard a shiny black cab destined for the city’s secretive and subterranean tunnels. Sink into the car’s comfortable seats and receive an intriguing introduction to London’s history from your driver. 

Stop intermittently to explore parts of an underground network of tunnels and visit an eerie subterranean church crypt. Discover the important function of the tunnels during the Victorian era and hear tales of soldiers roaming the underground city during the World Wars. 

Return to sea level to ascend to the vertiginous summit of the Monument to the Great Fire of London, the world’s tallest free-standing column, and climb the 311 steps to the top. On arrival, gasp at incredible views of London and its scenic environs and then head to St. Paul’s colossal cathedral to gaze up at its dramatic white dome.

Opt to purchase a ticket to the top of a tower in Westminster Cathedral and enjoy unrivaled views of iconic monuments like Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. Choose to cross the River Thames on a modern cable car for an additional charge, and then return to your hotel after four hours of sightseeing in the city.
