I’m looking at possibly doing a London trip for Spring Break (April 1-9) with our kids who will be 12 and 15. The kids aren’t big into museums as much as my wife and I. So we only have the British Museum and Churchill war room. Is the war room worth a visit? We were in New York last spring break and visited the Met and Natural history museum. How different is the British museum compared to those? I’m wondering if we should skip it and do something else. Here’s what I got planned so far. Any critique would be very helpful. I know April 6 and 7 are big travel days if we do Paris so I’m not sure on rearranging our schedule or skipping it all together and staying in London. Thanks
Itinerary:
April 1- Fly to London
April 2- Arrive at London: Big Bus Red Line Hop on Hop Off(get a overview of the city), Covent Garden/ Neal’s Yard, London Eye
April 3-Buckingham Palace, Church Hill Museum, Elizabeth Tower
April 4-Full day tour to Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, Bath (Roman Baths/ Cathedral) from London
April 5- Changing of the guard, Westminster Abbey, Tower of London, Tower Bridge, St Paul’s Cathedral, Leadnehall Market
April 6- Warner Bro Harry Potter
April 7- Paris Day Trip? My wife and I were here last year for 4 days so it’s whatever the kids want to see and do. We are fine just walking around and soaking up Paris again. Or we could possibly do Disneyland Paris and skip the city itself.
April 8- Horse Guard Parade (is this different than changing of the guard?), British Museum possibly , Trafalgar Square. Checking out sites we missed or wandering the city one last time.
April 9- Fly Home
