More about this tour
One of the world's most visited cities, Milan has something for everyone: from history and culture to fine food and good times.
Tower of London
The unmissable Tower of London (actually a castle of 22 towers) offers a window into a gruesome and compelling history. A former royal residence, treasury, mint, armoury and zoo, it's perhaps now most remembered as the prison where a king, three queens and many nobles met their deaths. Come here to see the colourful Yeoman Warders (or Beefeaters), the spectacular Crown Jewels, the soothsaying ravens and armour fit for a very large king.
London Eye
Standing 135m high in a fairly flat city, the London Eye affords views 25 miles in every direction, weather permitting. Interactive tablets provide great information (in six languages) about landmarks as they appear in the skyline. Each rotation – or 'flight' – takes a gracefully slow 30 minutes. At peak times (July, August and school holidays) it can feel like you'll spend more time in the queue than in the capsule; book premium fast-track tickets to jump the queue.
Museum of London
As entertaining as it is educational, the Museum of London meanders through the various incarnations of the city, stopping off in Roman Londinium and Saxon Ludenwic before eventually ending up in the 21st-century metropolis. Interesting objects and interactive displays work together to bring each era to life, without ever getting too whiz-bang, making this one of the capital's best museums. Free themed tours take place throughout the day; check the signs by the entrance for times.

I chose to do the river cruise over the bus Hop-on Hop-Off. Overall, a great choice. A different way to see London but arrive in a short time at prime sightseeing places. If the weather is warm like the past summer was, this is the best way to get around. Getting on at the London Tower is a good spot to incorporate doing the Tower & Bridge tours then taking the cruise.

Arrived at Westminster pier to check in as had bought a Virgin day trip for my wife. The office was extremely busy but everyone was dealt with in a timely manner. The cruise was narrated by a member of the crew who’s knowledge was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the boat and would recommend it to anyone. We would have liked to have spent more time on it but had booked a meal at The London city steakhouse which was part of the package. My advice would be to eat later to take full advantage of your time on the river.

The watermen, as they call themselfs, do great talks with lots of humour. On our trip back from Westminster the tide was low so they took us under the bridge up pass Houses of Parliment to turn round before going back to the Tower. Great value and even tipped the Watermen for their effort to entertain us.
