Great way to see the city

This tour is perfect to get to feel the city, see some very interesting things and have a good start for your London days.
We stayed in London 4 days, and we thought it would be nice if we started with a tour to understand what's what and to have a general idea the following days. The tour is extensive, we reached all the points indicated, and we felt that we got what we paid for.
We had complimentary pickup from the hotel (it's one hour BEFORE the tour's starting hour, and you are taken to Victoria station where you board another bus with your guide for the day).
Everything went smooth, even though we knew it was going to be in a rush with so many things to see in a few hours.
DO NOT EAT AT THE TRAFALGAR SQUARE PUB, it's a dump, the food is horrible (fish and chips especially had a very, very fishy taste - disgusting, really) and the toilet stinks ! It's not mandatory to eat there, so if you think you can manage to eat somewhere else, you can (and I STRONGLY advise you to) do it. Plenty of options nearby, even a McDonalds if that is ok with you.
If you want it all in one day, to have free independent wandering the next days, this is it !
The tour was outstanding! Tour guide was wonderful! He was informed, informative, and funny. Had a great time and I will be in touch when I return to London in September to see Stonehenge!!
Thanks!

Our guide, Cosette, was very friendly and knowledgeable. This tour allowed us to see most of the main London tourist sites in one day, which was nice, but it doesn't allow for a lot of time in any one place. A majority of the day is spent on the bus in London traffic, but this is just the nature of the beast. I'd recommend this tour if you like having a knowledgeable, local guide and want to see a ton of sites in a single day.
