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.

Step out of the city life by going to Speed Boats Tours and WWT London Wetland Centre. Get some historical perspective at Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace. There's much more to do: admire the masterpieces at National Gallery, examine the collection at The British Museum, make a trip to Tower of London, and pause for some serene contemplation at St. Paul's Cathedral.
