About this tour
See London’s royal landmarks from two memorable perspectives on this four-hour bike tour and river cruise package. Follow a local guide through the city, cycling past Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament while hearing stories about the capital’s history. The route also takes in Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park, and Westminster Abbey, with a chance to experience the changing of the guard when it is taking place.
Your bicycle and helmet are provided, so you can focus on the sights and the stories along the way. After the guided ride, use your 24-hour River Thames boat ticket independently and trade the saddle for the water. The cruise offers a relaxed way to take in London’s riverside scenery at your own pace.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.64 from 25 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 6.6.
