Greenwich
Enjoy a walk through the charming Greenwich Park and see the Greenwich Meridian (0° longitude) that passes through the historic Royal Observatory. This is where the universal term ‘GMT’ and the time zone UTC+00:00 originates from! Greenwich boasts incredible history as the home to the Royal Navy and the birthplace of many Tudor monarchs. Admire the 16th century Queen’s House, the National Maritime Museum and the elegant riverside complex of the Old Royal Navy College. Feel the busy atmosphere of the historic Greenwich Market where you can purchase rare antiques, artworks and handmade goods. The final stop will be at the 150-year-old tea clipper Cutty Sark, which has sailed from Asia to Victorian Britain.
Royal Observatory Greenwich
This famous 18th century astronomical observatory now houses a museum with a planetarium. Its highlights include the Flamsteed House where royal astronomers lived with their families and one of the largest telescopes in the world! The Royal Observatory is a must-do if you are interested in astronomy, or curious about the history of the Greenwich Mean Time. We provide skip-the-line tickets to skip the long queues, as it is one of London’s most visited attractions.
Cutty Sark
Step on board the historic sailing ship, the last remaining tea clipper in the world. Walk through the lower deck and cabins and get a glimpse into the daily life of the ship crew. Experience authentic life at sea and learn about the ship’s role in the tea trade between China and Britain and as an auxiliary vessel to HMS Worcester for sail training drill.
Thames River
Sit comfortably and enjoy the views of one of the most celebrated rivers in the world, with many London landmarks along the way! See the iconic Tower of London and the Tower Bridge, as well as modern attractions like the Shard, the O2 and the Thames Barrier.
