What's included...

Day 1 - City tour, Buckingham Palace, Luxury Quarter...

The best way to start to get to know London, one of the world’s greatest cities, is with an expert guided tour. We will take in the highlights of the city, aiming to catch the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace if we can, before taking a tour of the Palace’s state rooms. Lunch in China Town places us perfectly for an escorted exploration of London’s Luxury Quarter – showcasing Europe’s top brands. The evening is free for your Tour Director to suggest concerts, casinos, and endless entertainment options.

Day 2 - London Eye, British Museum, Fortnums by Appointment...

No visit to London is complete without a ride on the London Eye, in our case in our own private gondola. The British Museum is a certain must-see as well, containing important relics from across the world, such as the Rosetta Stone – from which Egyptian hieroglyphics were first translated. We will enjoy a personal shopping trip and legendary High Tea at Fortnum & Mason which is known as the Queen's Grocer.

Day 3 - Stonehenge, Salisbury Cathedral, Mulberry, Roman Bath...

Heading West our first stop is the standing stones of Stonehenge, still considered an ancient mystery. Nearby Salisbury Cathedral has Britain’s tallest spire and has been attracting pilgrims for 750 years. Like them you may find inspiration from the glory and peace of the Cathedral and its Close, or from climbing the spire itself. On through the countryside to the Mulberry Factory Shop where you may find real bargains from this quintessentially English lifestyle brand. From here it is a short ride to Bath, a World Heritage Site and possibly England’s most beautiful city. This evening we will enjoy dinner on a private terrace overlooking the ruins of the Roman Baths, and stay in a hotel on the famous Royal Crescent.

Day 4 - Cotswolds Villages, Oxford University and Punting...

Leaving Bath, we drive past medieval thatched cottages and honey stone villages in the glorious Cotswolds. We will stop to explore a Cotswold town and travel on to the city of Oxford. A walking tour will take us on a private tour of a University college, under the Bridge of Sighs and past the Rotunda. Dinner will be in a Chinese restaurant housed in the former Bishop’s Palace, after which you may like to try your hand at punting the calm rivers.

Radcliffe Camera and St Mary the Virgin Church, Oxford

Day 5 - Bicester Village, Windsor Castle and Vintage Thames Cruise...

For brand name bargains nowhere beats Bicester Village which is just a short drive from Oxford. After a morning of shopping we will head to Windsor, home to England’s most famous school, Eton, and of course the Queen’s favourite home Windsor Castle. An afternoon tour of the castle will leave time to explore the town on foot, after which we will drive to your luxury country hotel. This evening we will take a luxury vintage boat on a cruise along the most beautiful stretch of the Thames.

Day 6 - London Helicopter and Carriage Tours and Tower of London Dinner...

A private, luxuriously appointed helicopter flight will whisk you over London’s roof tops – there’s nothing else like it. Returning to the ground we will head back towards London, stopping at Hampton Court Palace and its stunning riverside gardens for a guided tour. Our final night in London will be truly special as we take a private high speed river taxi to the Tower of London. There we will be personally greeted by Beefeater guards and escorted to a private dinner in an ancient Tower. The evening includes a private tour of the fabulous Crown Jewels in the closely guarded walk-in safe.
