There are no set tours. Some people have never been to London before and would like to see the classical highlights. Other people have visited London many times and would prefer to see some more unusual sights.
Time to explore London. There is too much to see in one day. For the first time visitor the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace and Big Ben will be high on their list. Others may have been to London some time ago, so would be more interested in the newer places like Tate Modern, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre and the London Eye. Some prefer to visit the off-beat such as Highgate Cemetery or the Old Operating Theatre in Southwark. Children can visit puppet theatres, watch street performers at Covent Garden or feed the ducks in one of the parks. Museums and galleries galore - there is something for everyone in London.

Itinerary may include:
- Classic London: see the major sights like Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, St Paul's Cathedral and the Tower of London. In a day tour there is usually time to visit 2-3 places for a more in-depth tour.
- World War II in London: tour around the Cabinet War Rooms and Churchill Museum, or learn about both World Wars at the Imperial War Museum or scramble around a naval cruiser.
- London for Children: take a flight on the London Eye, march beside the soldiers as they Change the Guard at Buckingham Palace or stand with one foot in each hemisphere at Greenwich. There is so much to do in London, it is difficult to know where to start.
