Overview

Follow the storey of London along the river that gave it life, exploring four of its most historic areas and all top landmarks with your own personal local guide.

We travel between areas in the best way possible - relaxing as we glide along the water by boat (Uber Boats by Thames Clippers day ticket included!)

Meet your guide at the iconic Battersea Power Station and set sail into the heart of London. We’ll get off to walk by the top sights of Westminster (inc. Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Horse Guards Parade and London Eye) then ride across the river to the Southbank (Shakespeare’s Globe, Borough Market, London Bridge).

See the Tower of London, then sail under Tower Bridge on the way to Greenwich, where we see the Cutty Sark, Old Royal Naval College, Queen’s House and more. We walk uphill to end the tour at the historic Royal Observatory, home to the Prime Meridian timeline and “London's Best View”!

If you only have time for one London tour, this epic day trip covers the lot!

Activity itinerary

Battersea Power Station
  • 30m
After meeting your guide and fellow travellers, take a stroll around and through the huge Battersea Power Station - a true London icon! Once a coal-burning plant providing 20% of all the capital’s power, it has been lovingly preserved with its giant chimneys still in place, but has been converted into one of London’s most impressive shopping and entertainment venues.
Thames River
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
Now it’s time for your first journey along the river, taking you right into the heart of London. Sit back in comfort and watch the city pass by, and soon the familiar sights of Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye will come into view!
Big Ben
  • 15m
Pass under Westminster Bridge before jumping off the boat right next to Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, just across the river from the iconic London Eye.
Parliament Square
  • 20m
We'll visit the statues of Parliament Square, including Churchill, Gandhi, Mandela and Abraham Lincoln.
Westminster Abbey
  • 10m
We walk over to the incredible Westminster Abbey - religious centre of Britain dating back over 1000 years!
Horse Guards Parade at Whitehall
  • 20m
Walk along Whitehall to see 10 Downing Street (home of the Prime Minister) and war memorials, including the Cenotaph and Women of World War Two. We'll see the King's Life Guard at the entrance to Horse Guards Parade before walking through the famous parade ground.
St. James's Park
  • 15m
Take a quick stroll through charming St. James's Park to The Mall - the famous road that links Buckingham Palace to the grand Admiralty Arch.
Admiralty Arch
  • 5m
Stop for a photo at the grand Admiralty Arch, commissioned by King Edward IIV to link The Mall to Trafalgar Square
Trafalgar Square

Next, we'll walk through Trafalgar Square - Britain's most famous public space adorned with fountains, statues including Nelson's Column, and the incredible National Gallery.
Victoria Embankment Gardens
  • 15m
We'll walk back to the river via The Strand and Victoria Embankment Gardens, before boarding our next boat across the river to the Southbank.
Thames River
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket included
On this short journey along the river, we pass under Waterloo, Blackfriars and Millennium Bridge (which you might recognise from Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince!).

Borough Market
  • 20m
Our route passes through London's most famous and lively food market - Borough Market - filled with local traders and delicious treats. We'll also see the Clink Prison, Southwark Cathedral and The Golden Hinde - a full-scale replica of the first English ship to go around the world in 1577 and 1580.
London Bridge
  • 10m
We walk over London Bridge, pausing to enjoy the amazing view of Tower Bridge and HMS Belfast, before beginning our route through The City of London. This ancient part of the city has been the UK's financial heart for centuries and its rivalry with Westminster is legendary.
The Monument to the Great Fire of London
  • 5m
The historic City of London area was the epicentre for the Great Fire of London in 1666 - we'll visit the impressive monument built to mark the event.

Thames River
  • 25m
  • Admission ticket included
Our final boat ride takes us right underneath Tower Bridge - get your camera ready! Afterwards, relax and watch the world go by as we glide along the river to Greenwich. The boat takes around 25mins and there's a bar onboard, so this is a great chance to rest and refresh.
Cutty Sark
  • 10m
Welcome to Greenwich! This charming old London borough is one of our favourite parts of the city - filled with rich history and grand architecture, but with a village-like feel that contrasts with the buzz of central London.

Royal Observatory Greenwich
  • 20m
We'll walk uphill through Greenwich Park to the beautiful old observatory. This is the birthplace of British Astronomy and home to the Prime Meridian line, from where all the world's timelines are measured! This is a fitting place to end, with a view that stretches our over the city's skyline - locals have dubbed it "London's best view". *After your tour, we highly recommend spending a little time in Greenwich. Relax in the park, grab a drink in one of the classic local pubs, and enjoy some great food at Greenwich Market or one of many fine restaurants. National Maritime Museum and Queen's House are also free to visit (open until 5pm most days).
