With two days in London, there’s plenty of time to get a real feel for this buzzing cosmopolitan capital, where iconic black taxis and red double-decker buses flash past historic buildings. Anything goes in London, so choose how you want to experience it.
With included day passes for the London Underground (the Tube) take advantage of the tube system. Use it like a local and move around the city at your own pace. Some ideas for your free time include a visit to the Tate Modern to check out some of the world’s most famous contemporary art, or you can rub shoulders with the stars by walking through world-famous Madame Tussauds waxwork museum. Otherwise shop in the colourful Camden Markets, visit the Tower of London, ride the London Eye or stroll up Oxford Street. For those that love the Royals, you could head to Kensington Palace for a stroll through the gardens, followed up with some shoping along High Street Kensington. Maybe during your free time you might like to join one of our ME Time optionals to either the London Eye or the Tower of London- or better still one not visit both these iconic sites.
On your last night in London experience a bit of London culture with a trip to a famous West End musical - its on us! Afterwards, round up some friends and hit the town. London has it all; jazz bars, traditional pubs, pumping clubs and loads of live music - take your pick and dive into the action.
