At the Tower of London, marvel at the British monarchy's Crown Jewels, learn about the weaponry once used to defend this fortress and discover the legend of the resident ravens. Visits to Windsor Castle afford a look at Queen Mary's Dolls' House, while a cruise along the River Thames gives passengers views of the Shard skyscraper, Tower Bridge, Shakespeare's Globe and more.
