Walk London’s landmarks and markets with a private local guide, enjoy a traditional pub lunch, then explore the Tower of London.

About this tour

See London’s landmarks, riverside views, lively markets, and medieval history on a private full-day walk with a local guide. Your London Private Full-Day Tour begins near St. Paul’s Cathedral, then crosses the Thames and passes the theater where Shakespeare’s plays were performed. Take in city views from the Tate Modern terrace when it is open, and browse two of London’s markets before pausing for a traditional pub lunch: a chicken and bacon sandwich paired with beer. The George Inn is closed on Sundays and opens at noon, so an optional nearby bar is offered instead when needed.

Continue to the atmospheric ruins of St. Dunstan in the East and the remains of the London Wall, then admire Tower Bridge. At the Tower of London, skip the ticket line and explore at your own pace with an audio guide; your local guide does not accompany you inside. The walk lasts four hours, with the full experience listed as six hours. Book this London Private Full-Day Tour to connect iconic sights with the stories and everyday character of the city.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.85 from 13 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in London
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.2. Top 50% in London means it ranks in the top 50% of tours in London by this score.
