What should I do in London, UK?

Question

I'm going from the 12th to the 20th! What are some things I have to do while I'm there?

Answer 1

Brutally Honest! gave a very good answer, pretty much everything covered there - I was in London last month and that is exactly what I did and had a great time =]

One thing I would say is to give London Dungeon a miss, I went there and thought it was a complete waste of time and money. I have lost three hours of my life that I will never get back (two of those hours were spent standing in the queue to get into the place) lol

Answer 2

go to all of the museums they are fab the natural history museum and the science museums are good and they are all free to get in to and go in to hamleys (the famous toy shop) and harrods for tea it is fab and the weather can be change all the time make sure you check the weather before you leave pack an umbrella  and go to camden they have a brilliant market there

Answer 3

Visit Buckingham Palace, Tower of London and travel on the London Eye.  Also St. Pauls Cathedral is lovely - if you're into art there are lots of exhibits on and art venues.

There are loads of shopping areas, lots & LOTS of markets, theatres, social area (lots of foody places).  Museums too.

What are you interested in particularly?

Answer 4

The weather is variable.

We don't have 'guaranteed' good weather but it should be reasonably warm. Having said that, it at least wont be icy, that's the only guarantee.

There are LOADS of decent nightclubs as well as local pubs.

We have a lot of old buildings steeped in history, such as, Parliament Square - and that big old house where the Queen stays. :~}

The London Eye usually has long wait but the views can be worth it.

For attractions - try leaving the centre of London and heading to Chertsey for Thorpe Park, or to Hook for Chessington World of Adventure.

I wouldn't bother with Legoland but maybe go to Windsor anyway and check out the Queens other house (the castle)

Answer 5

see as many sites as possible, take lots of pic's and video

Answer 6

Madame Tussauds Waxworks Museum.

The London Eye (If you like seeing nice views for a long time, not recommended if you have children, they tend to get very bored very quickly!)

A few museums like :

The Natural History Museum,

The Science Museum. ( Also not recommended for children for the same reasons above! But verenjoyablele)

The London Dungeons. ( Brilliant fun! )

An Aquarium ( Also quite enjoyable )

London Bus Tours ( Very good for site-seeing )

Thats all i can think of at the moment!

Answer 7

I lived there for three long years so I've been everywhere. You should go on the London Eye(unless you're afraid of heights) It takes really long so if you can bring some food or something. You should go to the West Side and watch a musical. That's what London specialises in, musicals. You might want to go to the zoo and aquarium. The Stone Henge is far away but if you have a car you can get there. It's just a bunch of rocks, I know, but at least you can show off to your friends that you were there. Also, you could go shopping at the O2 center. Or watch a concert at the O2 arena. That's where I saw Linkin Park! Thorpe Park is an awesome theme park, but the lines are really long sometimes. And the London Dungeon is kind of gorry, but it's something to do and its entertaining. As a plus, its informative!

Answer 8

Definitely check out the London eye - the views are stunning

The changing of the guards (Buckingham Palace) is said to be a good sight as well

Answer 9

Stonehenge!
