Day 1- 3 Day Itinerary for London
Your first day in London depends on where you are coming from. For instance, you can board a National Express bus from Manchester to London for convenience and fast arrival. Moving from one city to the next by bus is not only cheap but also a great way to enjoy more of what Europe has to offer.
As soon as you get to London, be sure to use St Pancras luggage storage to store all of your belongings – London is massive and trust me, you won’t want to lug everything around with you. Then, take the London Underground and head to the Marble Arch. Here you get to explore the famous Hyde Park. Take a stroll through the park and head to Green Park to experience the forecourt of Buckingham Palace. If time allows, wait until 11.30 am to attend the Changing the Guard ceremony.
Your day is not complete without visiting St. James’s Park and head to Westminster Abbey. The visit takes between two to three hours, but it is worth it considering that it is London’s most important landmark.
You should then head to the River Thames, where you will find Big Ben and Westminster Palace, which are this city’s central symbols. Upon crossing the Westminster Bridge, you will get to the London Eye for amazing views, and you can call it a day.
Day 2- 3 Day Itinerary for London
The second day begins at the Tower of London. And since you are already in London, you can start your tour early in the morning.
Explore the Tower and be sure to take some cute pictures. Then cross the Tower Bridge and head to the south bank of the River Thames. This is where you find the City Hall on the right end and the HMS Belfast. You can explore these landmarks if time allows or leave them for your next visit to London.
Take the tube and head to Camden Town to explore one of the most beautiful neighborhoods. The authentic town features numerous shops, stalls, and international street food.
The second day is also the best time to visit the British Museum. End your second day’s tour at Oxford Street and the Piccadilly Circus for shopping.

Your last day’s visit to London starts at St. Paul’s Cathedral near St. Paul’s tube station. This is a perfect chance to climb the dome before heading to Trafalgar Square. After exploring the square and taking a few pictures, you may head to the neoclassical building, a National Gallery that holds most of the UK’s historical painting collections.
You can then walk to the Covenant Garden, which is filled with restaurants, shops, and theaters, where you can spend the rest of your afternoon relaxing before moving to the next city.
