Walk past Westminster Abbey, the final resting place of English kings and enjoy some free time to explore. Rise above the city on the world's highest observation wheel, the London Eye. Take a flight in one of the specially designed glass capsules connected to the rotating wheel, providing extraordinary views. On a clear day, the panorama stretches to Heathrow Airport and Wembley Stadium. Take a cruise down the River Thames. Your vessel features a glass observation deck, as well as an open-air promenade deck. See the neo-Gothic Parliament buildings that dominate the river bank. You'll also pass the Tower of London, the notorious royal prison, and the Victorian-era Tower Bridge. Lunch at a hotel in central London is included on this full-day excursion.
