Hop-on Hop-off London Bus Tour and Westminster Abbey

Description

Westminster Abbey
Steeped in an incredible 1000 years worth of history, the gothic interior of Westminster Abbey does not disappoint. Stained glass, exquisite ceilings, beautiful decoration and ornate furniture, it is truly awe-inspiring inside.

The resting place for an impressive 17 monarchs, Westminster Abbey is also home to the oldest piece of furniture in the world that is still used for its original purpose. The Coronation Chair was built in 1296 and is still used to crown UK monarchs.

Remember to visit Poets’ Corner, a section of the Abbey dedicated to poets, writers and playwrights that have influenced English literature throughout the years. Charles Dickens, Rudyard Kipling and Thomas Hardy are all buried in this area.

You will also have the use of an audio guide to ensure that you don't miss out on any of the history.
