Excellent Full day tour of London through Evan Evans Tours. Our guide, Sheila was very good! She was a wealth of info and went at a nice pace. We saw so much, including the Changing of the Guards! But I must admit, we were exhausted by days end so skipped the London Eye. I highly recommend this tour if you only have one day to see London. My only suggestion is to give us longer for lunch. One hour was too short. We had to take the food with us.

We had a very informative and funny guide named David. He gave us lots of good information and encouraged questions. However, there was a lot of logistics trying to navigate London with traffic and crowds and some people but a tour for the whole day (us) and others were only morning or afternoon, so he spent a lot of time dealing with that. We also didn't get to spend much time in the Big Ben/Westminster Abby area and we didn't get to see the changing of the guard (too many people) though we did see the new guards coming out of their stalls accompanied by a band. It was all kind of rushed and we were afraid of losing our guide, but we liked him and all the information was valuable.

It was a very busy day that managed to take in most London landmarks but it was at a pace that was not all that enjoyable for us. We did take note of those attractions and landmarks to circle back to later and as a sampler, the tour does deliver. In hindsight, we would have better enjoyed half a day at the Tower as it has so much to explore and unless you can get to Buckingham Palace early for the changing of the guard its so busy its hardly worth it. Still, a great way to kick the tires of most icons.

We only had one day in London and this tour gave us the chance to see so many things. Our guide was so knowledgeable and fun. The bus driver did a great job. The boat ride was fun. Recommend to anyone who want to see a lot in a little time.
