General presentation
Londres
A very dense world capital, between museums, monuments, neighborhoods, parks, markets and walks on the banks of the Thames.
The discovery of London revolves around Tower of London, Westminster and British Museum. The stay thus alternates between the big city, urban life, heritage and riverscapes, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 3 to 7 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: very large city and budget accommodation often high. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. The main sites are generally easy to access.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Fortress
Tower of London
The Tower of London combines imposing shape and historical role legible from the entrance, between massive walls, inner courtyard and dense internal circulation. Its strength arises from the density of the visible strata, which is better captured by moving forward in zones. The quieter passages reveal details of great narrative interest.

Abbey
Westminster Abbey
Westminster Abbey has centuries of royal ceremonies, tombs, and monuments, but the visit is mainly due to the density of its chapels and carved stones. The nave is imposing its magnitude, while the Poetss of Corner, the choir and the funeral corners invite to slow down to read the names, the gills and the coats of arms.
