Milestones:
Are you visiting Paris but want to make the most of Europe while you’re here? We have prepared a one-day, hassle-free, day of family fun to London for those staying in Paris. With this London escape, all you have to do is take the train right out of Paris into the heart of London and we take care of the rest.
With this day escape, you’ll take an early morning Eurostar train from Paris into the heart of London. Your “Mary Poppins” guide will meet you at the St. Pancras train station and your day of fun will begin! This day is all about seeing the best of London as you have fun while learning.
Ready to experience the London Tube? That’s a part of a London immersive experience! This is the oldest underground passenger railway in the world. Officially known as the “Underground,” it is nicknamed ‘the tube’ due to its small, circular tunnels and rounded trains. Very deep under the streets of London, there are so many escalators! Between those and the round trains, getting from Point A to Point B is almost its own attraction
You’ll start with the famous Changing of the Guards at Buckingham palace. This is a ceremony where the Queen’s Guard exchanges responsibility for protecting the palace to the New Guard. Full of pomp and circumstance, it truly is a sight to see!
On Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday (and every day in June & July), the Changing of the Guards takes place at Buckingham Palace. On Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, there is the Changing of the Horse Guards at the Horse Guards Parade. It’s fun for kids to see the classic guards with their funny hats and marches, but equally amusing to see the horses and their regal choreography! Regardless of which day of the week you book this tour, we know the whole family will love the show.
Next you’ll promenade on the Westminster Walk. This includes iconic sites such as Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, and the Houses of Parliament. These are must-dos when you’re in the city of London! This will be the perfect opportunity to learn how the United Kingdom is ruled, how the power is shared between the different branches, and the various positions such as the Royal Family, the House of Lords and the House of Commons.
Board the London Eye next. This towering ride is the most popular paid tourist attraction in the UK- and for good reason! With its 32 360° observation capsules, the world’s largest cantilevered observation wheel stands over 400 feet tall. Woah! But don’t worry, it goes at a nice and slow pace so that your family can catch all the amazing views of London. Your kids will play a fun spotting game! Can they spy with their little eyes iconic monuments in the city below just from pictures?
With all the sightseeing, you’ll be sure to have worked up an appetite. Lunch time! Your family-friendly, Blue Badge guide will recommend some lovely restaurants on the popular Southbank for you to choose from.
Since you’ve already seen London from the air, time to see it by sea! Or river, really. Hop on the Thames Clipper to sail your way to the Tower of London. See if your kids can spot and identify some of the monuments you saw from atop the London Eye.
Next stop will be the imposing Tower of London. But you will not simply visit it, you will complete a thrilling Treasure Hunt there! Armed with handy activity booklets, your kids will traverse this 900-year-old museum that was once a palace, prison, fortress, and zoo! This type of activity is the perfect way to visit an important site while keeping the kids fully engaged.
After you’ve completed your treasure hunt at this nearly millennium-old site, stroll across the Tower Bridge toward Borough Market, the oldest market of London. This lively covered market is full of food stalls and there you’ll get a sweet British treat, a yummy reward after a long and exciting day.
Now that you’ve experienced the best that London has to offer, it will be time to head back to the train station. In your train ride back, you can reflect on your marvelous family day or simply rest before you continue your adventures in Paris.
And if you’re staying longer in London, view our great selections of family-friendly tours.
We will be delighted to assist you with your Eurostar tickets.
Of course! This day is for you and your family, so if there are museums or sites you’d rather see, just let us know via our contact form and our superhero squad will make it happen.
Absolutely! We have many fantastic Harry Potter experts (true Potterheads) and we would be thrilled to adapt this itinerary to include sites related to the books and films to make your day even more magical.
In case of bad weather, the Changing of the Guards will be canceled. We can replace it with a visit to the Royal Mews. Located at Buckingham Palace, it hosts the royal collection of historic carriages and coaches. Like a site right out of a fairytale, this will be super fun for the kids! There will be an additional charge to cover the tickets.
We can provide you with a van and a chauffeur on top of your kid-friendly guide, but be aware that there is a lot of traffic in London so this may impact the whole program. Another option will be to take a black cab (they can accommodate up to 5 people plus your “Mary Poppins” guide) for some portions of the itinerary. Please use this contact form to get in touch with one member of our superhero squad, and we will get back to you with the best option for your family.
