Cox and Kings
‘HIGHLIGHTS OF UK - SUMMER 2019’ 05 Days / 04 Nights
ITINERARY IN DETAIL Day 01
Arrive London
We begin our 'Co x & Kings - Highlights Of UK' tour in the capital of the country, London, the city that boasts as much of a rich historic past as it does of a modern cityscape. Arrive in London where we are warmly welcomed by our Cox & Kings representative who meets us at the airport's exit. Our representative then ensures that we are comfortably transferred to the hotel (check-in after 1600 hours). Our today's schedule comprises enjoying a sumptuous dinner which will be served at an Indian restaurant and returning to the hotel for a good night's sleep. Overnight in London. Dinner at the hotel Day 02
London
After breakfast today, we kick off our London exploring expedition with a guided to ur o f the city which takes us past all monumental structures of the town including the Hyde Park, the Piccadilly Circus, the Trafalgar Square, the Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, the Westminster Abbey, the Buckingham Palace (also witness the Change of Guard ceremony at the palace depending on operational technicalities), the London Bridge and many others. Next on our itinerary is a visit to one of the world's largest museums of art, the Victo ria and Albert Museum. It houses a collection of over 2.3 million objects from various streams of art including fine arts, photography, architecture, fashion, etc. forming a narrative that spans over a period of 5000 years. Given that the museum was established with the sole purpose of serving as a classroom for art and design, the buildings themselves are a fine masterpiece of Victorian architecture, one that has often left sightseers in awe. After spending some time in the plush settings of the museum, move on to the next destination, the Natural Histo ry Museum. As can be guessed from the name itself, the museum is dedicated to natural sciences housing some 80 million odd specimens that narrate the evolution of life on earth; from fossils of the tiniest insects to the skeleton of a 25.2 metre tall female whale (the newest addition to the Green Zone) to that of a giant Stegosaurus. Making this journey of existentialism even more fun and dramatic are the interactive exhibits such as the earthquake simulator or the ride into the centre of the earth. Overwhelmed with the excursions so far, we bring the day to a close on a lighter note and spend some leisure time at the Oxfo rd Street, one of Europe's busiest fashion streets. Here, you could either give in to the urge to splurge or simply sit back with a cup of tea or coffee taking in the hustle-bustle of this lively street. Then, head back to the hotel, grab dinner and call it a night. Overnight in London. Breakfast at the hotel and dinner at the hotel Day 03
