Come here at night. Don’t be tempted by the curries, they’re only passable. But the atmosphere of the place is great. Wander around, there are some nice little bars and clubs just about everywhere

Yes, you can go up the London Eye, but I recommend getting the ferry boat here and head to Greenwich for the park and lovely food. Great ferry ride!

The Queen's residence. Usually. She's a busy lady. As promised, 25 min door to door, in case you're after some nice tea and a scone. You can see the changing of the guard for sure. If it doesn't rain.
