When in London

It wouldn’t be a trip to London without seeing the iconic and historic structures such as Big Ben, The Tower of London (which is often mistaken for London Bridge) and St Paul’s Cathedral.

For those who love history and the arts, you can find the museum district in South Kensington, home to the Science, Natural History and Victoria & Albert museum – all within walking distance of each other. Explore Greenwich and its maritime past with the Cutty Sark standing tall, or the Imperial War Museum to learn about Britain’s role in WW1 and the conflicts that have shaped the nation.

Foodies will love the amount of choice and diversity of cuisine the city has to offer. London’s Borough Market is the oldest running market in London and a fantastic place to start.
