This tour takes us along the banks of the River Thames between two of the most famous buildings in the world, the Houses of Parliament & the Tower of London. We will travel on both sides of this famous old river which locals lovingly refer to as 'Old Father Thames' at various points along the tour. The fine buildings of London are meant to be seen from the river side & we will learn how things have changed over the centuries and millennia & learn how the river has shaped and influenced London right up to the present day. We will learn the stories of some people that lived along the banks and some of the terrible disasters that have befallen the city.It's not all bad news though as we will past some iconic bridges, amazing photo opportunities & some of the most funky parts of town that until now travellers rarely got the chance to explore. We will see many of the most famous sights in London but also hidden places right by the river which are little changed from centuries ago.

About Londres

Londres combina ceremonial real, museos de talla mundial y monumentos junto al río con barrios distintos, mercados y parques para recorrer a pie.

El Támesis cose la ciudad. En sus orillas se alzan el Parlamento y el Big Ben, la Torre de Londres con las joyas de la Corona, el Tower Bridge y el largo paseo de la South Bank, que pasa ante el London Eye, el Globe de Shakespeare y la Tate Modern. La catedral de San Pablo y la abadía de Westminster anclan el horizonte más antiguo, mientras las torres de cristal se apiñan en el distrito financiero.

Top-ranked sights in Londres: St. Paul's Cathedral, Stonehenge, Tower of London.
