27th January 2024 – Day 1
Meeting Point: 3 am, VIE Terminal
Departure from Vienna: 6:50 am
Arrival in London: 8:15 am
- From the airport we first went to the hostel to check in + drop off our suitcases
- First, we explored Notting Hill – Portobello Road Market
- We walked through the hide Park to Kensington Palace/Garden
- Next, we passed by the Albert Memorial, the Victoria Albert Museum and Royal Albert Hall
- Finally, we went to Harrods to eat/ go shopping.
- Afterwards we went back to the hostel to check into our rooms.
My opinion:
For the first day it was very exhausting, because we’ve been awake since 3 o’clock. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the day very much and had a lot of fun admiring the various sights. I liked Portobello Market and Hyde Park the most.
Day 2
- After a good breakfast, we started at 10 a.m. in the direction of Hyde Park to the Peter Pan statue.
- Afterwards we watched changing the guards at Buckingham Palace
- The 3rd point on the plan was Big Ben and the London Eye
- Afterwards we visited the National Gallery, the national Portrait gallery and convent garden.
- The last one, was a visit to the well-known „musical“ „Magic Mike“
My opinion:
Of all the days, I think I liked this one the most. From culture to art to a Magic Mike show, everything was there. There was nothing I didn’t like, but the „musical“ was still the highlight.
Day 3
- This time we started at 9:45 a.m. and went to the Sky Garden
- The next attraction was the Tower of London and the Tower Bridge
- At about 1 p.m. we admired the art at Tate Modern
- The penultimate stop of the day was the famous British Museum
- The very last view of London was Oxford Street
My opinion:
I also liked the 3rd day very much. It was a bit more exhausting, and the weather wasn’t as good as usual, but it was still a successful last day in London. My favourite sight this time was Tower Bridge and Oxford Street.
30th January 2024 – Day 4
- After we checked out at 10 am, we went directly to the airport by subway.
- After all passport controls and security checks, we still had about 2 hours to eat or go shopping.
- After a relaxed and even more punctual flight, we got our bags and said goodbye afterwards.
