Discover London, from the Banksy Tunnel to the Changing of the Guard

The only morning tour to visit Buckingham Palace, the Gold Classic Tour provides an opportunity to see the changing of the guard close up. The Palace is famous the world over as a royal residence for the celebrated British monarchy and site of resplendent royal occasions - it is London at its most iconic.

The Gold Classic tour is a family-friendly guided tour on two wheels of London's most culturally significant destinations, taking in Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, St. Paul's Cathedral, Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden, and the Banksy Tunnel. Beginning at Waterloo, your day tour covers the most notable stops between Westminster and the City of London. You’ll find yourself in the heart of the city, traveling for 13.2km as you learn the ins and outs of London’s dynamic landscape. Bike rental is an added benefit.

You've truly seen London when you've laid eyes on the Palace of Westminster, known as the Houses of Parliament. Here, Britain's politicians take the most important decisions in the land, surrounded by the regal architecture that has defined the English aesthetic for decades. Admire the reflection of this staggering site of political significance as it ripples in the River Thames, cruised by boats keeping England's capital ticking over. Pedal to St. Paul's Cathedral and discover one of London's proudest landmarks. This spectacular white-domed cathedral, designed by one of England's most famous architects, Christopher Wren, draws millions of tourists to its pristine white exterior every year.

Your bicycle tour takes you on to Trafalgar Square, one of London's busiest and most trendy squares, and home to Nelson's Column, the Landseer Lions, and the smallest police box in the city! Carry on into the captivating creative hub of Covent Garden, a fashionable square lined with boutiques, high-class restaurants, and the Royal Opera House. This is London's wonderful West End, and it doesn't disappoint. Your day tour winds down with an exhilarating exploration of the Banksy Tunnel, an intriguing urban gallery of street art that dazzles the eyes and captures the creative spirit of England's capital.
