Days Out in London
Visiting London can be daunting, as you are arriving into a big city with lots of things to do and see and don’t know where to start. Days out in London can consist of going to museums and galleries, attractions, parks and landmarks as well as enjoying the entertainment. With all of this in mind, you do not want to miss out on any of the great London sites.
Museums & Galleries:
Take a couple of days out to look at the historical sites of London and discover the best exhibitions and museums around. From The Golden Hinde to The Britain at War Experience both located in London Bridge, you are sure to gain a greater knowledge of London’s history.
If you are looking to go for a lighter approach, why not visit Ripley’s Believe it or Not museum located in Piccadilly Circus, it will give you an insight into different original, authentic and unbelievable exhibits, which will leave you amazed. Alternatively, visit the Science Museum Imax Cinema located in South Kensington, to see 2D and 3D films come to life on a giant screen, for your whole family to enjoy
To take advantage of your days out in London, explore the historical buildings and gardens including St Paul’s Cathedral, Jewel Tower situated in Westminster, Royal Botanic Garden in Kew Gardens and Wellington Arch in Hyde Park Corner for an informative and relaxing experience.
Outdoor fun with the kids:
Whilst in London, you do not want to miss out on the beautiful wildlife that London offers. The London Wetland Centre in Barnes shows off the scenic walkways set amongst the lakes, pools and meadows that are home to the wildlife. Visit the centre for you and your family to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
A whole day can be spent exploring the animals at Regent Park’s London Zoo. With almost 750 animals found at the zoo, you won’t only get to see them in action but you can also learn about them and their living environment in a wide range of exhibitions that the zoo has available for your family to enjoy together.
Days out in London cannot happen without a cruise down the River Thames. City Cruises (located in London’s most popular tourist destinations; Westminster, Waterloo, Tower of London and Greenwich) will take you on a picturesque sightseeing tour of London giving you and your family a chance to take lots of photos as well as relax and enjoy the view.
Indoor Tours:

London is also home to the Lord’s Cricket Tour in Marylebone and Twickenham Stadium Tour, where the World Rugby Museum is located.
If you’re looking for a frightening London experience, then the famous horror attractions, the London Dungeon and the London Bridge Experience both based in London Bridge, will give you an unforgettable adventure.
