Greater London

Exploring Greater London via the Tube is a convenient way to see the city’s diverse sights. Start at Westminster Station to visit the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey. Cross the Thames to the London Eye for panoramic views. Next, head to Green Park Station to see Buckingham Palace and nearby Piccadilly Circus.

Continue to South Kensington Station for the Natural History Museum, Science Museum, and Victoria and Albert Museum. Then, visit Tower Hill Station for the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. Finish at Canary Wharf on the Jubilee line to experience modern London’s skyscrapers. The Tube makes it easy to connect with Greater London and it’s rich attractions efficiently.
