Take a look at some of the sights you won’t want to miss while you’re in London for Wimbledon.
Big Ben
London has a wealth of well known attractions from Big Ben to Buckingham Palace to the Westminster Abbey and the Tower Bridge. We spent a day in London doing a hop-on hop-off bus tour with the Original London Sightseeing Tour.

The Original London Sightseeing Tour was the first – and today is also the largest – single sightseeing operation in the world. The history of the company can be traced back to the early 1900s, and London Transport formally introduced the tour for the 1951 Festival of Britain.
The hop-on hop-off tour of London allows you to board at over 90 different stops, across three sightseeing routes. Buses run daily, with live commentary in English and a wide choice of digitally-recorded languages. A free river cruise pass and walking tours are included with every ticket and the Kids’ Club provides an educational and fun alternative for 5-12 year olds.
You might be able to tell from the clear blue sky that we did the tour mid May.

I love the London Eye, especially around sunset, you get great views of the city while slowly been circled around.

If you have time while you’re in London for Wimbledon this tour is a great way to see the main sights easily.
Until next time

Hope those blue skies come back and stay for Wimbledon!
The easy way to see the sights. On a nice day go upstairs for the open top, otherwise stick with the comfort of the downstairs seats.
