Westminster Abbey Entry Ticket
One of London's must-visit itineraries. The Klook package saves a lot of trouble, but still has to wait in line. Westminster Abbey, located on the River Thames, has a Gothic style building with gray gold as the main tone, inlaid with bronzing carvings and totem decorations. The exquisite design and special structure make it the most elegant and luxurious representative of the Thames River. building. Listed as a World Cultural Heritage in 1987, the quiet and solemn chapel and monastery of Westminster Abbey have become world-famous tourist attractions. Not only the successive British monarchs enthroned, but also Queen Elizabeth II were crowned here. It was also the venue for the wedding of Prince William and Princess Kate in 2011.

Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - the Making of Harry Potter (Central London Departure) (By Golden Tours)
Going to Warner Bros Harry Potter Studio was one of the highlights of my trip to the UK. Klook made the magical experience so readily accessible for me! The bus pick up points were really conveniently located at Birmingham! The ride was comfortable and the lady on the bus gave us some tips on which exhibitions were a must see! Winter is the best time to visit the studios so that you’ll be able to experience the Yule ball set as well! I had great time and I would totally recommend this package to all!

Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter (by Evan Evans)
We recommend watching the Harry Potter movie before you go! !! It was a meeting three hours after I arrived, but it was quite large and I was watching it carefully, so I had to spend time buying souvenirs ...! So you may need to allocate time! !! For the time being, even one person is insanely fun! !! What's more, I'm really impressed! !! I was so glad I went! !!

Stonehenge, Windsor Castle & Bath Day Trip
Because I don’t know how to drive, it’s more convenient to choose a day trip to connect several suburban attractions. Three attractions are also interesting. Stonehenge is good to take pictures when the weather is good. Windsor Castle is lucky. If you are lucky, you have the opportunity to see the Queen. If you can stay in the bath one more Will be better

Windsor, Oxford, and Stonehenge Day Tour from London
Stonehenge's one-day tour is usually connected with Bath. I have participated in it many years ago. In fact, this time I only want to visit Stonehenge again. The itinerary of this group is very satisfactory. In the morning, we will go to Windsor Castle, which is still the residence of the British royal family. Its appearance is exquisite and magnificent, showing the royal style. In the afternoon, we will go to Stonehenge, the famous prehistoric cultural temple site, one of the most famous landmarks in Britain, attracting countless people every day. Tourists, explore the mystery of this ancient building; finally, visit Oxford University, stroll through the streets of this university city, and feel the academic atmosphere of the world's top universities!

London Eye Tickets
Informative tour of the notable landmarks, buildings and cultures as we cruised along the River Thames. Hopped onboard at the London Eye Waterloo Pier with the iconic Big Ben and renowned Palace of Westminster opposite within sight. The ship sailed all the way till we meet the glorious London Bridge. Overall a great way to experience the historic city from a different perspective.
