Houses of Parliament Tour & Battersea Power Station | Crosskeys Day Trip

Travel in comfort to the Houses of Parliament where you will enjoy a self-guided multi media tour of one of the world’s most famous buildings, including the House of Commons, House of Lords and the Medieval Westminster Hall. Take time to admire the artworks and architectural splendour and gain an insight into the fascinating history of the landmark, from the Tudors, to Guy Fawkes and The Great Fire of 1834.

In the afternoon there will be free time to visit Battersea Power Station which opened its doors to the public for the first time in history in October 2022. Almost 40 years after the Power Station’s lights were switched off, the icon is becoming one of London’s most exciting retail and leisure destinations.

The building’s retail offering is housed in the Power Station’s two newly restored, historic Turbine Halls, which although identical when viewed from the building’s exterior, are completely unique in their interior design. Turbine Hall A reflects the lavish Art Deco glamour of the 1930s when the Power Station was built, whereas Turbine Hall B which was completed in the 1950s, has more of a brutalist, industrial look and feel. Inside the Turbine Halls, shoppers will find an array of British and international brands, bars and restaurants.
