Stay Local in London

Debark the ship and meet your driver at the pier. Check into your hotel and enjoy the rest of the day at your leisure. Discover some of London’s signature landmarks, such as Big Ben and Trafalgar Square. Or, perhaps, take a ride on the famed London Eye and enjoy a bird’s-eye view of the city. You’ll find no shortage of pubs and eateries for a taste of local life, and London shopping is legendary. Regroup back at the hotel for a kick off dinner and the chance to get to know your fellow travelers.

Begin your exploration of London with a trek across the Millennium Footbridge, a suspended pedestrian walkway spanning the murky waters of the Thames. Capture a few great snapshots before entering the Tate Modern, the city’s acclaimed museum of contemporary art. A self-guided tour precedes a visit to one of London’s most recognizable landmarks—Tower Bridge. Go inside for a look at the old workings before continuing to the Tower of London, the infamous fortress echoing with tales of imprisoned royalty, murdered princess and horrific beheadings. Wrap things up at St. Paul’s Cathedral. If you still have the energy, climb the steps of the great dome for spectacular views of London.

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel. At the prearranged time, say goodbye to newfound friends and bid London farewell as you head to the airport to catch your outbound flight.
