A weekend in London

If time doesn't appear often on your schedulle then 2 days will have to be enough for you to feel the real London vibe.
The truth is that one month is not enough to know london but the most important things, if you're stong at will, can be seen in just 2 days.
If you find it difficult to choose between the hundreds of options then take our suggestions in the way to have 48 fantastic hours.



Start your journey by taking the underground untill Edgware Road Station and head towards Marble Arch.
Trough this 5 minute walking you'll find many middle east shops where you can find the best exchange rate for your euros. There's no cheaper place in London then in this street.
Drink a hot chocolate down at Starbucks (they're the best, there's dozens of stores everywhere and they're worth the 5 € you pay for it).

Once you're in Marble Arch go through Oxford Street (one of the biggest commercial streets in the world) and be amazed with the London style.
In Oxford Circus catch the underground to Notting Hill Gate and follow the signs to Portobello Road (saturday mornings just follow the crowd to see that you're in the right direction).

With some pounds less and the hands full of stuff go back to Notting Hill Gate station and catch the underground to Green Park (you have to change line at Bond Street).
Once you're in Green Park, follow the signs and go down the park untill you arrive at Buckingham Palace to watch the change guard (daily at 11.30am).




Five minutes from there and after you cross St James Park go to the Horse Guards
and take a picture with the Queen's horses.
At the same time you're heading to the famous 10 Downing Street (the oficial home of Britain's Prime Minister),at the right of the Horse Guards.

Stop to eat something in the neighbourhood and with some energie gained you can see at the bottom Big Ben. Take a good look at him and take as many pictures as you can.
Right in the corner there's the Westminster Abbey, the place where Lady Di said goodbye to this world.

Go back to Big Ben and get in one of the many turistic boats (the ticket costs about 7 €) and go till the Tower of London. There enjoy Tower Bridge and the interior of the Tower of London (it takes about 3hours to see it).
In the way out get the underground at the Tower Hill station and go to Leicester Square (you have to change line at Embankment).
Have dinner and enjoy a bit of the London nightlife.
2 minutes from there shines the big publicity panels of Picadilly Circus.

The next day start your journey in Warwick Avenue and visit Little Venice and see how many of londoner's have a different lifestyle living on boats. There catch a bus to Camden Market. You're going to need about 3hours to watch the latest and unusual trends that exist there.

In Camden catch the underground to Hyde Park Corner (you have to switch line in Leicester Square) and eat something in Hard Rock.
With full stomach it's easier to walk down at the giant Hyde Park. Take a rest and head west toward Harrods.

Loose your head and buy some souvenirs there and right at the door there's the underground station (Knightsbridge) and head to Covent Garden.

Enjoy the street shows and eat something in the neighbourhood.
If you still have the time and energie use them in a night walk from Waterloo to Tower Bridge that is absolutely gorgeous at night.

Have a good weekend!
