Entertainment & Activities
Amazing views for a fraction of the price of London Eye! It goes from O2 Arena to Excel Exhibition Centre (we say from nowhere to nowhere) but it offers stunning views of London. After you catch a DLR at Royal Victoria station (make sure you are right on front seats of the train, which are driverless) and enjoy almost roller-coaster ride through London. When you are in the neighbourhood, go to Olympic Park.
