By Mary Wilson


Most people love visiting England and plan to return. There is so much history and beauty to the country that everyone finds things to see, do and explore. There are keeps and castles that go back centuries. The landscape is like something out of a storybook, and the towns with their thatched roof houses are quaint and inviting. It can be overwhelming to decide how to spend your vacation days without taking advantage of the custom tours London visitors love.

If you are a first time visitor, you can get a great general sense of the city by taking one of several popular excursions touring companies offer. You will be first in line in the morning to take a walk through Christopher Wren's masterpiece, St. Paul's Cathedral. From there you will travel to Westminster Abbey for a photo opportunity. Next comes the Queen's home, Buckingham Palace and the Changing of the Guards.

In the afternoon, you will be treated to a tour of the Tower of London to see where Anne Boleyn lost her head and where the Princes were imprisoned. You will have a chance to view the Crown Jewels and visit the White Tower. A trip down the Thames is next on your agenda with this tour. You will end this busy day with a flight on the London eye. This is the highest observation wheel in the world and offers breathtaking views over the entire city.

If you have already taken a tour of this city and have an adventurous spirit, there are specialty excursions that highlight the notorious and mysterious history that surrounds England's capital. You will begin with an open bus tour of the haunted streets of the city and travel to Tower Hill where beheadings routinely took place.

Notorious Smithfield Market may be next on your agenda. This is reportedly the site where Braveheart was hanged, drawn, and quartered as the opening attraction in a medieval carnival. If that is not gory enough, you can retrace Jack the Ripper's steps in his murderous pursuit of prostitutes. A final stop at Sherlock Holmes pub to discuss the identity of the killer is a good way to end the day.

For children of all ages, the Warner Brother Studio Tour of its making of Harry Potter is a must see. For your added enjoyment, the attraction has recently been expanded and updated. Visitors get to see props, costumes, and behind the scenes looks of this great movie series. The hidden secrets of the special effects and animatronics will be revealed to you.

You will have a chance to walk through the train station and get a peek at Platform 9 3/4, step into the menacing Forbidden Forest, and visit the Great Hall. Dumbledore's private office door is be open to you before your stroll down Diagon Alley in search on the best brooms and wands in the wizarding world.

No matter what your tastes and interests, you'll find a tour to enjoy. In this magical city, the possibilities are endless. England's capital is like no other place on the planet.
