City of London

Driving through our financial centre we will learn about the Great Fire of 1666 and the Blitz of 1940-41, we see the Bank of England and the home of the Lord Mayor, The Mansion House.

St. Paul's Cathedral

We arrive at Sir Christopher Wren's masterpiece and the scene of Lady Diana's wedding to Prince Charles. The present building, completed in 1708, replaced the medieval Cathedral destroyed in the Great Fire of London. There will be time to enjoy the piazza restaurants and shops.

The interior, with its glittering mosaics, intricate stone carving, and breathtaking vantage points, are just a few reasons why a visit to St Paul's Cathedral is a must. The American Memorial Chapel stands behind the High Altar, and Jean Tijou's beautiful wrought iron gates of 1700 separate the quire from the ambulatory.

EXCLUSIVELY for Golden Tours clients we will be able to enter the Quire which is not open to the general public to see the beautiful mosaics.

The Tower of London & Crown Jewels

During its 1000-year history this impressive fortress has been a royal palace, prison, mint and zoo. It has seen three Queens of England beheaded, and the torture of numerous prisoners, stretched on the rack and crushed in the Scavenger's Daughter. We will also see the famous Crown Jewels including the dazzling Cullinan diamonds and the exquisite Koh-i-Noor, ,as well as the Bloody Tower, Traitors' Gate, the Royal Chapel and the White Tower, built by King William the Conqueror in 1078.
