Make a day of it in London with plenty of free time to pick your perfect mix of sights, shops, and snacks. Stroll past the big hitters — Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, and the Houses of Parliament — then wander the South Bank for street performers, riverside views, and landmarks like the London Eye. Dip into world-class museums (many are free) such as the British Museum, National Gallery, or Tate Modern, or head for Covent Garden and Seven Dials for boutiques, markets, and cafés.

Explore Borough Market for foodie treats, meander through St James’s Park, or hop a short boat ride to Greenwich for the Cutty Sark and hilltop views. With maps and tips from your escort, you can go full sightseeing mode or keep it low-key with shopping and long lunches — your London, your way.
