ACCESS

If you require specific access information or have particular needs, please contact us before making a booking.

We will be happy to assist and provide the details you need.

MOBILITY SCOOTERS

If you plan to bring a mobility scooter on the trip, it is essential that you book it in advance.

Failure to do so may result in us being unable to accommodate the scooter on the coach, as we must ensure the appropriate ramp and space are available.

The day is yours to do as you please, but as these two amazing icons are right next to each other, it’s an opportunity too good to miss.

Borough Market

Located right in the heart of London, Borough Market is one of the best-known produce and street food markets around. Open six days a week, the food market’s atmospheric halls and passageways are a pleasure to explore.

Borough Market is London at its most alive—a feast for the senses where every corner tempts you to taste, wander, and linger. It’s a buzzing celebration of incredible food, from sizzling street eats to artisanal cheeses, fresh-baked bread, and indulgent treats from around the world, all made by people who truly care about what they sell. Set against historic architecture and humming with energy, it’s perfect whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or slowly grazing your way through the day. You’ll leave full, happy, and convinced there’s no better way to experience London’s soul than through its food.

The Shard

The Shard isn’t just a building—it’s a moment. Stepping inside means seeing London from a completely new perspective, with breath-taking, sky-high views that stretch for miles and make the city feel both vast and intimate at once. It’s sleek, dramatic, and unforgettable, whether you’re soaking in the panorama from the viewing platform, sipping a drink above the clouds, or marking a special occasion. If you want a true “wow” experience that turns London into something cinematic and leaves you feeling on top of the world, The Shard delivers—literally.
