Morning
 Start the day with an insight into almost 1,000 years of British Royal history at the Tower of London. Once inside the forbidding medieval gates you can marvel at the Crown Jewels and shudder at the Bloody Tower. While in the grounds, don't forget to look for the ravens. These magnificent birds are cared for by one of the Yeomen Warders. It's said that the day the ravens leave the Tower, England will fall. We very much hope they are there when you visit!
The next stop is less ghoulish, but equally thrilling. The Tower Bridge Exhibition is awe inspiring, with its historic engine rooms and stunning views from the high level walkways. Then time to head to the swanky riverside destination known as Butlers Wharf. Once the largest warehouse complex on the Thames, the area is now a shrine to gastronomy and design. Many of the restaurants here are large enough for groups.
Afternoon
 After lunch it's off to the Queen's London residence, Buckingham Palace. During the summer months the lavish State Rooms are open to visitors, and from March to October you can take a tour of the Royal Mews, where you'll see the Queen's magnificent horses and the State Coach.
The Queen's Gallery exhibits paintings from the Royal art collection and is open all year round. If you didn't manage to have tea with Her Majesty, don't worry. There are plenty of refreshment outlets in serene St James's Park, where we hope you will enjoy a leisurely stroll.
