About this tour

Then set out on a guided walk through the City of Westminster, following a route toward Buckingham Palace and taking in the capital’s regal character along the way.

The river ride links the old city and royal Westminster, making this a lively introduction to London’s past and present. Meet your guide in front of the Tower of London Ticket Office, where they will hold a red Urban Saunters sign. Join this London Tower of London and Westminster Tour for a memorable day among the city’s defining sights.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.86 from 44 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 7.4. Top 27% in London means it ranks in the top 27% of tours in London by this score.
