London: A City That Rewards The Adventurous

Explore London, one of the oldest of the world’s greatest cities situated on the River Thames. 

Tour the Tower of London and experience the iconic castle through the eyes of the Beefeaters/Yeoman Warders.  See the Crown Jewels and hear of the castle’s history – even the horrific occurrences.  I even found a distant relative who was the head of the Fusilier’s.

Go to a concert at the exquisite Royal Albert Hall of Arts & Sciences which seats over 5,000 people but originally was to hold over 8,000 or take a tour as I did.  It has the second-largest pipe organ in the British Isles.  Queen Victoria named it after her beloved deceased husband who initially had the vision for the hall – it is magnificent.

Buckingham Palace (the British monarchy’s royal residence) viewings are of the Throne Room, the Ballroom and the White Drawing Room.  A spectacular tradition is the Changing of the Guards, a ceremony which is only performed as per a schedule posted online. The King’s guards are known for their distinctive uniforms, tall black bearskin caps and white gloves.

One must experience the London Underground or “The Tube” a rapid transit system that services greater London and some other parts of England.  I remember at one point going down, down, down, 3 levels – amazing.  At night, enjoy the London Pubs for a lot of atmosphere and good food!  Double-decker buses, and so many other things to see and do. 

Call me anytime to schedule your London vacation.  As your travel agent representative, I look forward to working with you.  Anytime is a good time to arrange a vacation.  So, why not do so now?
