Overview

If you are looking to explore London but have limited time or simply want to see all of the main sites in a convenient, family-friendly way, then we have the tour for you!

First stop: the London Eye! With our fast-track tickets, your family will step into one of the 360° observation capsules. Each of the 32 capsules represents one of the 32 London boroughs. Standing over 400 ft tall, it is the most popular paid tourist attraction in the United Kingdom. These views will leave your kids’ (and your) eyes dazzling. While you’ll climb in the air, your kids will be invited to play a fun game. They will receive some pictures and will have to be fast to identify where the monument is located. Who will be the fastest?

Hop off that ride and on to another! Step aboard a boat for a gentle cruise down the lovely River Thames. From your comfortable perch, you will be able to spot all of the main London monuments from a new perspective: Big Ben, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Shakespeare’s Globe, and more!

After you step off this eye-opening ride, you will continue your journey on foot to make the most of the history-filled area. You will walk past the Tower of London. This building, almost a century old, has been a museum, palace, prison, and even a zoo!

Next meander by Leadenhall Market. This 14th century cobble-stoned marketplace has a lovely contrast between its modern bustling atmosphere and Roman Basilica origins (and Harry Potter fans may recognize it as Diagon Alley!).

You will continue your way along the Thames bank to admire the skyline and its skyscrapers. Will your kids be able to locate certain buildings solely based on their nicknames? See if you can identify the Cheese-grater! What about the Gherkin? The Pringle? How about the Walkie-Talkie?

After your little game of ‘I Spy,’ you’ll walk past the Royal Exchange shopping center and the Bank of England. There are roughly 400,000 bars of gold there!

Continue walking past the Mansion House. This impressive building looks almost like it could be a bank too, but is actually the home of the Mayor of London! Not too shabby.

Finally, you’ll finish your fantastic journey with a magnificent view of St. Paul’s Cathedral. One of the most recognizable London sights, it has one of the highest domes in the world. Its breathtaking view will be a great end to your fun-filled family day.

If you want to see the best of London (from multiple angles!) with your family in one lovely activity, this is the tour for you!

At Meet the Locals for Families, we make sure all our activities are hand-crafted to engage every member of the family, and this one is no exception. Your kid-friendly Blue Badge guide will be with you every step of the way to keep you informed and to engage the kids.
