itinerary by Iveta Elišková
This four-day itinerary will guide you through the most beautiful parts of the British capital - from iconic landmarks such as Big Ben and Buckingham Palace to quieter corners full of atmosphere and photogenic views, including the Prime Meridian at the Royal Observatory Greenwich and modern Canary Wharf. A well-thought-out itinerary awaits you, without unnecessary transfers, ideal for a first visit or traveling with older children, with a realistic pace (approx. 8-12 km per day), time for breaks and the atmosphere of the city. This is not a thorough exploration of everything London has to offer.
You do not need a visa to enter the UK, but you do need a mandatory ETA electronic authorization (valid for 2 years, you can apply for it here, for example).
It is necessary to secure tickets in advance (to famous places such as The London Eye even more than 3+ months in advance, even outside the season; even free tickets must be booked = British Museum).

The first day mainly depends on your arrival time - if you arrive in the morning, you can comfortably manage a large part of the iconic Westminster area (without entrances). Or plan 1 entry and count on extra time spent. We arrived late in the afternoon, so we only managed a two-hour walk before dark, but even so, London made an impression on my sons on the very first day.
Focus on exploring the eastern part of London. The highlight of the day is a visit to the Greenwich Observatory with admission, because who wouldn't want to see the prime meridian?! Then a walk along the Thames basin with flood barriers (mega technology in reality). The converted docks in the modern business district of Canary Wharf and a hidden oasis in the heart of London on the roof of one of the buildings in Canary Wharf. Transfers are by bus, on foot and by subway, as we move along both banks of the Thames further from the center.
For the bus journey, I recommend allowing extra time, as the city is congested even on weekends, so expect delays. We were running to the Observatory (please note that the Observatory is on a hill and you have to walk through a park), but even a delay to the booked tour is not a problem ;-).
To the heart of cultural London, where history, urban energy and personal discovery intertwine. Start your morning at the iconic British Museum, one of the world's leading museums, home to treasures across civilisations - the aim is not to see everything, but to pick what's most interesting to you (everyone has different interests) and enjoy the place without rushing. After your cultural experience, have a refreshment (McDonald's will please the youth the most) and do a little "shopping" (so you have memories other than cultural ones). Then move to the vibrant Soho district, where London takes on a completely different atmosphere - alleys, cafes and the hustle and bustle of the city. Then naturally continue to Trafalgar Square and the day can culminate with a visit to the famous Waterstones bookstore on Piccadilly, where you can take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city and perhaps take another treasure with you in the form of a book.
