A must do when in London. The sights are all most far apart. This helps to see sights in one go, based on which routes joined. We did the Yellow route as this has a lot of buses. Green route has fewer buses so be mindful when trying to catch this. There is no timing for the buses but the Toot app has indicators of live locations of buses. In summer, it’s hot so take the covered part.

A tour guide will bring you inside and you will have audio guide inside the parliament. It is a very unique experience as you get to see the historical parliament. I will recommend to study about UK political situation before going in. Unfortunately you can only take pictures at 2 places but definitely worth the expense.

You only need to show the QR code upon arrival, very convenient. I would recommend to book the ticket as soon as possible as it is a popular tourist attraction. I would also recommend to queue at least half an hour before the time you booked as it is very crowded.

Teacher Diana’s explanation was very good, and she took us to understand the historical background of cultural relics from different countries and dynasties in China and abroad from many different angles.

Interesting experience to learn about how Tower Bridge was built long ago, and wonderful views at the top. There’s even a see-through glass walkway where you can see all the way to the ground. Ticket also includes entry into the engine room.

Take a boat to see London's famous attractions from the river, and get a more comprehensive and complete picture from a different perspective than on land. Most importantly, you don't have to worry about traffic jams!
