6 days in London Itinerary

Vibrant and noisy, London is one of the world’s leading cities, an international capital of culture, education, fashion, music, finance, trade, and politics.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Oxford University Museum of Natural History and Pitt Rivers Museum. Change things up with these side-trips from London: Battle Abbey and Battlefield (in Battle), Walking tours (in Oxford) and Bodiam Castle (in Bodiam). There's still lots to do: explore the world behind art at National Gallery, get a new perspective on nature at Natural History Museum, take a stroll through Old Town Hastings, and contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Westminster Abbey.

In November, plan for daily highs up to 13°C, and evening lows to 5°C. Finish up your sightseeing early on the 18th (Sun) so you can travel back home.
