Attraction Name

Thames River Cruise - See the sights of London from the water

Description

What better way to glance at the beautifully designed capital than by cruise? There are multiple cruise services for you to choose from, but we’ve chosen Thames River Sight Seeing as our top pick. This experience doesn’t need much explanation, it’s simply a great alternative way to go sightseeing in London. There’s also a live commentary, so you don’t miss out on the finer details you can see, when embarking on your cruise!

St Paul's Cathedral

Attraction Name

St. Paul's Cathedral - One of the biggest buildings in London

Description

Who doesn’t love a good cathedral? Especially this one? Standing as the second-biggest cathedral in the entire UK, this building has dominated the skyline of London for years. With its beautiful Anglican design, and breathtaking indoor views, you’ll want to visit this place at least once in your life. You can usually enter at 8:30am every Monday to Saturday, and if you’re a follower of the Christian faith, you can also take part in a morning prayer, and other things related to your faith.

Tower Bridge

Attraction Name

Tower Bridge

Description

When you think London bridges, you think… well… London Bridge. But Tower Bridge is the true hero of the Thames. Whilst London Bridge is surely iconic, mostly because of the song, it’s the Tower Bridge that stands out in the distance. Constructed with beautiful 1800s architecture, walking across it once, is a must for your 24 hours. You can even book a visit to its glass floor walkway, so you can see the sights from above whilst feeling like royalty as you look down on all the passers-by! Special note: this attraction is dog friendly! 🐶

Cotswolds Discovery Centre

Attraction Name

Cotswold Villages Tour

Description

There’s nothing quite amazing as Cotswold villages. The buildings truly do look like they were plucked from the past, with a charming and beautiful landscape surrounding them. Multiple movies and TV shows have been filmed here, like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, The Crown, Pride And Prejudice, Downton Abbey, the list is huge! There are multiple tours, with travel directions included. It’s a bit far out, and travelling there on train can take a while, even though there’s direct train lines there, but you won't regret visiting these cozy little towns!
