London: City Tours
The Vibe:The whole capital, curated into a day
Structured city tours compress two thousand years of London into a single day — crown jewels by morning, a river cruise by afternoon, Westminster floodlit after dark. Built for travellers short on time, not interest.
Engines idle at Buckingham Palace as the Guard Change drums start up. Later, the coach slips under Admiralty Arch as guides trade trivia over headphones.
