As you pedal along, your expert guide will share hear quirky tales about London’s amazing and sometimes bizarre history as well as showing you the ‘must see’ monuments and landmarks.
Following easy, safe routes such as riverside pathways and cycle lanes, the tour includes highlights such as the London Eye, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and the magnificent Royal Parks. You will also pedal along the Mall taking in Admiralty Arch, Trafalgar Square, Chinatown, Covent Garden and St Paul's Cathedral.
Discover unique, strange and amusing elements of this great city. How else would you ever find the world’s smallest police station or an ancient Egyptian tower that has survived 3,000 years; learn about the historic struggle between the town planners and the milkmaids at St. James Park; or discover the church that inspired the wedding cake?!
London Eye: At 135-meters (443 ft) high, this is the tallest Ferris wheel in Europe.
Big Ben and Houses of Parliament: The graceful neo-gothic Palace of Westminster is the meeting place of the two houses of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. ‘Big Ben’ is the nickname for the great bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace and is often used to refer to the clock or the clock tower as well.
Westminster Abbey: This grand church is the traditional place of coronation and burial of British monarchs.
Buckingham Palace and Changing the Guard: Buckingham Palace is the Queen’s official London residence. If the time is right you may see the Changing the Guard ceremony.
A Secret passageway from Whitehall to Downing Street: A secret entrance to 10 Downing Street lies behind the Cabinet Office at 70 Whitehall. It runs along Cockpit Passage, which was used in the 16th century by the young King Henry VIII to reach his indoor tennis courts.
Royal Parks: London is famous for its magnificent parks like Hyde Park or St James’s Park. You will stop for a break and refreshments (own expense) in one of the Royal Parks.
Admiralty Arch: A spectacular archway providing road and pedestrian access between The Mall and Trafalgar Square.
World's Smallest Police Station: In a corner of Trafalgar Square, unobserved by most visitors, you will find the world's smallest police station!
Trafalgar Square: One of the most famous squares in the world. In the middle is Nelson's Column, guarded by four lion statues at its base.
Benjamin Franklin's residence: Dating from around 1730, this historic building was the home of scientist and ‘Founding Father of America’ Benjamin Franklin between 1757 and 1775.
Chinatown: In the Soho area of the City of Westminster you will catch the aromas of Chinese cooking and find a colorful concentration of Chinese restaurants, bakeries, supermarkets and souvenir shops.
Oldest wig shop in London: One of the quirky sights on the tour is the city’s oldest wig shop.
Cleopatra's Needle: One of three Ancient Egyptian obelisks re-erected in London, Paris, and New York City respectively during the 19th century.
Covent Garden: Once an important fruit and vegetable market, Covent Garden is now one of London's most popular tourist attractions. It is famous for its shops, street performers, bars, restaurants, theatres and the Royal Opera House.
St Bride’s Church in Fleet Street: The beautiful spire of this church designed by Sir Christopher Wren inspired a local baker to make a cake that became the prototype for all modern wedding cakes.
St Paul’s Cathedral: Also designed by Sir Christopher Wren, this world-famous London landmark sits on top of Ludgate Hill in the City of London.
