Day 4 - Tower of London/ River Thames Cruise
We are off to an early start this morning as we venture to the
Tower of London for the Opening Ceremony. Watch as the Chief Yeoman
Warder and his military escort make their way to the outer gate of
the Tower to unlock it for the day's visitors. The keys are as
impressive as the ceremony itself, carried upon a large iron ring.
You have some free time to explore the Tower of London or the
surrounding area before we transfer to the waterfront for a cruise
on the River Thames. A delicious, multi-course lunch is served as
our ship takes us past many of London's highlights, including the
Tower Bridge, the Eye of London, Tower of London and the Houses of
Parliament. Audio commentary noting the spectacular sights also
accompanies the 90-minute cruise.
Back on dry land, finish your afternoon with time to sightsee
independently. Peruse the exhibits of the British Museum or
discover the masterpieces that lie within the National Gallery. You
may wish to wander along Oxford Street, where there are
approximately 300 unique shops and boutiques to explore, or to
visit the vibrant neighborhood of Camden. Overnight
