You will have a hard time being bored with so many different presentations, and you may not experience everything in one shot.

Many times you will find guided tours that take less than a day and are well worth it. When booking ahead, you will avoid the large crowd, and long lines that are usually associated with many world famous sites, like Buckingham Palace, London Tower and so many others. Booking these tours also not only provides an opportunity to skip the masses altogether, but many offer areas that are not even made available to the general public. With so many different ones to choose from, you will be sure to find something that fulfills the curiosity of every member of your family.
The other advantages of these tours are that you have a knowledgeable guide walking you through every step, and often provides information about an attraction or building that wouldn’t normally be provided on your own. Everything is included with the exception of some meals, entry fees, boat tickets, etc. so you are saving money and time. Since many of these are less than one day, you can get in a tour and still be able to visit other offerings on your own. Spend the day touring old castles and cathedrals by day, and then go out for a night on the town later on. Shorter ones are an average of just three hours, so you may be able to fit more than one in a day.
Another must see attraction that can be included in your travel package is London’s famous subway system, called the Tube, by the locals. With its extensive rail system, you can find yourself at many well know destinations much faster and less stressful than renting an automobile. If you want you could even travel to France this way, using the channel tube.
Some of these tours include visits to famous castles and palaces, including Windsor, Buckingham, and the Kensington Palace. A full day general guided tour that includes more famous sites like London Tower, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and even a boat ride down the River Thames.

You even get to experience taking a boat ride along the famous River Thames, with your final destination being Harrod’s, possibly one of the largest department stores in the world. This tour is approximately eight hours long, and the guides will pick you up from your hotel.
If castles and palaces are what you fancy then there are two package tours that are for you. There is a seven hour tour of both Buckingham Palace, and Windsor Castle. With an early start you will begin at Windsor Castle. With over 900 years of royal history, it is the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world, and an official residence of the Queen herself! Also included on the tour of the castle you will see the Changing of the Guard ceremony, St. George’s Chapel and see where King John signed to Magna Carta.
Buckingham Palace has been the official home of the Royal Family since 1837. Today it is the home of Her Majesty the Queen. Here are many sites to see here as well, and you can even take an audio tour, telling you more about the royal lineage. Since the guided tour ends at this destination, you can explore this spectacular setting at your leisure.
Another tour you may enjoy is a visit the Kensington Palace home to both Princess Diana and Queen Victoria. With a history spanning 300 years, the palace has seen its share of great events and dramas. Not only was Queen Victoria born here, but also where she had discovered that she had become queen.
One of the great things about going on one of these tours is the fact that since you have your tickets ahead of time, there is not waiting to get in, and sometimes you will enter before the facility opens to the general public. This is a beautiful thing, especially during the summer months, when the crowds and lines can be extremely long, even in the early morning hours.
Be sure that you book these tours along with you holiday package. You could save time and money, and have less of a risk that one of these once in a lifetime adventures are already full. With so many that are a day or less, you could even book more than one if you have some time. It will well be worth it, and you may find historical information that you wouldn’t discover easily elsewhere.
