If you have never had the opportunity to visit England, you have missed one of the most beautiful, interesting, and historic countries in the world. Everywhere you look there are castles and keeps dating back hundreds of years. The landscape is lush, and most of its cities are kept in pristine condition. If you are planning to visit the United Kingdom for the first time, you should consider the custom tours London visitors always rave about.

If you are a first time visitor, you can get a great general sense of the city by taking one of several popular excursions touring companies offer. You will be first in line in the morning to take a walk through Christopher Wren's masterpiece, St. Paul's Cathedral. From there you will travel to Westminster Abbey for a photo opportunity. Next comes the Queen's home, Buckingham Palace and the Changing of the Guards.

The ravens will greet you at the infamous Tower of London, the last home of Anne Boleyn and the Princes in the Tower. This is where the Crown Jewels are kept, and you will have a chance to view them on your way to the White Tower. A leisurely boat ride down the Thames will give you spectacular views of this city. Finally it is time to fly up and away on the London Eye, the highest observation wheel on the planet.

Repeat visitors, looking for an adventurous and fascinating tour of the seamy side of old England, can take one of several excursions that highlight London's mysterious and notorious past. The tour begins with an open double decker bus tour through the city's haunted streets to Tower Hill, infamous for the routine beheadings that occurred there.

Next you'll take a walk through the notorious Smithfield Market and see where Braveheart was tortured. As the day winds down, it will be time to walk the alley ways where Jack the Ripper performed his macabre murders. Once you have completed that tour, you will be ready to relax at the Sherlock Holmes pub and discuss with the other tour members who Jack really was.

Children and adults of all ages are huge fans of the most famous wizard of all, and a tour of the making of Harry Potter at the Warner Brothers Studio is something not to be missed. You will get to walk through the sets, view original costumes and props, and get the inside story about those amazing special effects and animatronics.

You will have a chance to walk through the train station and get a peek at Platform 9 3/4, step into the menacing Forbidden Forest, and visit the Great Hall. Dumbledore's private office door is be open to you before your stroll down Diagon Alley in search on the best brooms and wands in the wizarding world.

There are many ancient cities in countries around the world. They all have their charm, but for many England's capital is special. No matter how often tourists get to visit, they always find something new to do and see. Not every city can boast the same.
