Depending upon your flight arrival time, you can make use of your 3 day Hop-on Hop-off pass and start your sightseeing by visiting St Paul's Cathedral, Tower Bridge and Tower of London.

A slightly early breakfast today to visit Trafalgar Square to see Nelson's Column, utilising your Hop-on Hop-off London bus tour pass. Walk your way up till the Buckingham Palace to see its grandeur from outside. However you do get to witness the "Changing of Guard" ceremony. After watching the iconic ceremony, it'll be time for lunch. Tuck in too much - no problem - head to St. James' Park for a stroll and catching a nice view of the surrounding area from the top of one of the arched bridges. The Horse Guards Parade Ground lies near the east end of the park, and from here you enter into Whitehall to click a selfie with the famed expressionless guards. Just down Whitehall is 10 Downing Street, the residence of the Prime Minister. If you are lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the leader going or returning. Then cross over to Westminster Abbey, known as a place for coronations, state funerals and burials of past monarchs, and even famous writers. The nearby area is also a good place to experience the typical British ritual of High Tea at a café. Thereafter visit the iconic Big Ben. Interestingly, Big Ben is actually the huge bell atop the clock and the Clock Tower. Then cross over the Westminster Bridge for a ride on the famous London Eye ferris wheel to have unparalleled views of London's skyline. In case you are hungry for more, we can suggest an optional add-on cruise on the Thames river. Return to your hotel. Overnight at your hotel in London.

Even though the cathedral got partially burnt in a horrific fire in 2019, rebuilding efforts are on, and you can still witness its scale and the grandeur of gothic architecture from the outside. Then, head across the river to the Latin Quarter, home of the historic Sorbonne University, and the historic Panthéon which was built as a church dedicated to Paris' patron saint - Saint Geneviève.
