Hi,
Planning a day out in London (a Monday) - 2 adults. Got a concert in the evening but what to do something during the day.
We have already done:
London Eye
Tower of London
London Bridge
National Gallery
Tate Britain
Portrait gallery
London Aquarium
British Museum
So any ideas for what else to see?
Was thinking of the tour of the Globe Theater - any opinions?
What else do you recommend that doesn't cost over £15 each?
We know we can get 2 for 1 but what do we pick
And where should we eat in the evening that's reasonable prices?

Thanks guys. Was looking at the V&A museum so might look there, the science museum is just by it isn't it?
Plus a visit to Harrods for a laugh and a look round might be in order on the way there too And can sneak a peak at Hyde Park too. working on clearing the clutterDo I want the stuff or the space?0 -
If the weather is good. Docklands to Greenwich, walk through park, observatory (free), lunch at the pub in Greenwich market, boat trip back to Westminster.0

Is there still a foot tunnel somewhere near Greenwich? Seem to remember from when I was little - but can't remember where, it was all tiled and pedestrians only and went under the Thames

If you are going by train - have you checked out the 2 for 1 deals for attractions/theatres/restaurants?0

Yes I have but have done quite a few of the attractions and don't fancy them all (printed Globe voucher and a couple of others) - theater is no good as we have a concert in the evening. The restaurants are tricky because they don't all show their pricing to work out which is a better 2 for 1 deal working on clearing the clutterDo I want the stuff or the space?0
