30 or so people required to charter the entire vehicle. Route takes in London Eye, Houses of Parliament, Downing Street, Horse Guard's aven, Nelson's Column, St Jame's Palace, Ritz Hotel, Hyde Park Corner, Liz's house, Wellington Barracks, Westminster Abbey, Tate Gallery, Lambeth Palace and the Florence Nightingale Museum.

Cheesy but frequently surprisingly good fun. Tourlasts 75 mins. Guide price 20.

They don't let you drive the duck in London like they do in Boston though! [:p]

Oh the Boston tour is fab !

did it with (unintentionally) a load of non english speaking Germans and the driver and I just induldged in witty banter about the 1776 Revolution and how the US had gone downhioll ever since !

(edited to correct appalling typing!)

But yes if there is an outing might be interested

After personally witnessing one of these overturn in Ottawa where several people died - no thanks.
