London Summer Days
6 days - by Air

Everyone loves going to London. The trouble is, a single night in a good hotel can cost you an arm and a leg. With Omega, though, you don’t need to go out on a limb.

For just £499.95pp* we can offer a SIX day break in London, including air travel and transfers, 5 nights at the 4 star Tower Guoman Hotel with breakfast, and even a couple of optional excursions thrown in. At that price your only problem is deciding what to do with all that time in the capital, so we came up with a few ideas to set you off without setting you back too much.

Summer Starters

‘Ten Peak’ Challenge
Did you know that ten of the most popular tourist destinations in the UK are all in London, mostly free, and within a mile or two of each other? You can do ten in a week without brandy, a compass and mountain rescue, can’t you? Of course you can!

Six of the Best
Not just of London, or even the UK, but the world. The Science, the V&A, the Natural History, the British, the National Maritime, and the Imperial War. Museums, that is. You’ll find the first three of these right next to each other, and the others are just a few tube stops away. And they’re all free entry.

Absolutely Fabulous
Harrods, Selfridges and, of course, Harvey Nicks for some Bolly. Go forth and multi-buy, darling!

Monopoly Marathon
Your challenge is to walk the Monopoly Board of famous place names including Piccadilly, Pall Mall, Oxford Street, Leicester Square and the Angel, Islington, plus all the stations. This is one time you can land on Mayfair without it costing you all your little green houses. You won’t need Free Parking either and you can skip the Utilities. Just make sure you don’t Go To Jail!

Upstairs Downstairs
Before there was Downton Abbey, there was Upstairs Downstairs. Start from the TV location in Eaton Square and work your way round one of the most exclusive and expensive square miles on Earth, where practically every street is a celebrity and residents don’t order their Rolls with butter. Sloane Ranger your way across Cadogan Gardens, cruise the mews in Kensington and count the Bentleys in Belgravia. Take a walk on the posh side!

One recommends Buckingham Palace...
Even if you’re not keen to pay the entrance fee and join the queues for Buck House, it would surely be remiss to miss the Changing of the Guard, which takes place in the forecourt of Buckingham Palace at 11.30 every day in summer and alternate days in winter. It’s free to watch and lasts about 45 minutes.

Naval Gazing
Take a boat trip or water taxi to see the floating museum of HMS Belfast and the Cutty Sark (trouser outfits are best if you want to clamber around inside these ships). Star gazers shouldn’t miss the chance to go round the Greenwich Observatory and Planetarium.

†Our prices include your flights for which we have allowed a reasonable budget. However, at your time of booking, should the cost of your flight exceed this budget, we reserve the right to charge a supplement, which we will advise you of before we confirm your reservation. Flight supplements are payable in full at the time of booking. Flight times are subject to change and availability will be confirmed at the time of booking.

Day 1 - Meet up at your chosen airport for your flight to London, where on arrival we will transfer you to the 4 star Tower Guoman Hotel for check in and free time before the first of five nights stay.

Day 2 - Breakfast and then a whole day to do the sights. Some of the big name attractions have big entrance fees to match, so if you’re planning on visiting these you might be better off buying a London Pass – see www.londonpass.com

Day 3 - Optional free excursion to Greenwich. The Royal Observatory is free, but a fair trek up a hill. The Maritime Museum is a dream come true for anyone who loves model sailing ships, but there’s lots of other interesting stuff in there too. Then there’s the famous Cutty Sark, now fully restored after the recent fire and set in a new ‘water’ dock.

Day 4 - Optional free excursion to Windsor. You can explore the area, stroll down The Long Walk in Windsor Great Park, wander in Windsor Forest by Virginia Water, or perhaps take a short boat trip up the Thames from Windsor Promenade. The castle itself is also open to visitors but a visit takes around 3 hours and queues are common so you might want to prebook on their website.

Day 5 - Breakfast and free day.

Day 6 - Breakfast and then transfer to the airport for your flight home.
