2FOR1: London Transport Museum
From the first omnibus on the streets of London in 1829 to iconic works spanning a century of graphic design, explore the heritage of London and its transport system and the stories of people who have travelled and worked in the city over the last 200 years.
The Museum’s iconic collection includes historic buses, vintage Tube trains, trams, trolley buses and black cabs, alongside early Underground maps, vintage posters and photography that spark curiosity and transport visitors to a golden age of travel.
1/3 OFF: SEA LIFE London Aquarium
Dive in and explore an underwater world of glittering scales, waddling feet and razor-sharp teeth at the SEA LIFE London Aquarium.
With over 5,000 fin-tastic creatures to see, you can glide alongside sea turtles, waddle with gentoo penguins, visit the Jellyfish Zone and the Coral Kingdom, and more!
2FOR1: Royal Observatory Greenwich
Mirror Moon by multi-disciplinary British artist Luke Jerram is on display at the Royal Observatory Greenwich, the home of Greenwich Mean Time.
Made of stainless steel and measuring 2 metres in diameter, this new installation uses accurate topographic data from NASA to map the textures of the Moon onto the mirrored steel surface.
Entry is free with tickets to the Royal Observatory.
2FOR1: City Cruises
See and experience London from the comfort of a modern, all-weather sightseeing City Cruises boat.
Open-air decks, heated indoor saloons and panoramic windows give great views of the most iconic sights in London – and the best photo opportunities! Hop on and off scheduled boats all day long, departing from Westminster, London Eye, Tower and Greenwich piers.
