We had 2 hours to kill before our coach home the St Paul's experience was so great we plan to come back with more time to spare. You have to be fit to climb the stairs but the views were well worth it.
The guide was not safety aware. He approached a dangerous situation near Trafalgar Square and had to be told to leave. He cut through traffic. He did not know basic London facts. His timing was off about Buckingham Palace. I ordered and paid for six hours and only received three. His three hour tour ended at the Abbey and he cut us loose. Then I had to find my own way to St Paul's.
It’s a long walk and 5 hours of standing but it covers everything you need to see in one day in London. Just be careful you’ll have enough time to visit the church at the end as the tour leader leaves you before and you may not get to the church before closing.
We loved viewing inside the cathedral, well worth the entrance price. Was amazing to climb to the top as well, the views from up there were insane!
Pre booked our tickets and visiting time for a reasonable price and totally worth it, no queues to get in, would recommend picking up headset to listen to all the fascinating facts about the different areas and history of the building which is beautiful. Definitely worth the many steps up to the top for the fantastic views of the surrounding city. Felt very safe with everyone distancing and keeping themselves to themselves. A peaceful and tranquil, fact filled visit.
