The cheapest way to visit the Royal Observatory and Cutty Sark is to book the Day Explorer ticket online (£25 adult, £12.50 child). The Cutty Sark was the fastest square-rigged ship and the last of its kind before steamships came in. The 'tea race' was a race between tea importers, which meant the first ship to return from China or India could command the highest price upon its return. This is why she is a ship built for speed.

St. Paul's is a beautiful, historic cathedral, which you may have seen narrowly avoided bombing during the WW2 Blitz. Although much can be seen from the exterior, the grand tomb of Admiral Horatio Nelson is found inside.

Food scene

Amazing food, gorgeous stalls, friendly people. It is a lovely place to browse. If you are lucky enough to visit while it is still very quiet, it is easy to look around with no crowds. It has great atmosphere.

This is best suited to younger guests. A disused carpark, Peckham Levels is a super hipster 'Berlin vibe' place to eat and drink with a great view of London. You need to get off the overground train at Peckham Rye.

Museums are free

Since 2001 London museums have been free, although they may still charge for special exhibitions. The Natural History Museum, British Museum and Greenwich Maritime Museum are all free and well worth the visit. See if you can find Admiral Nelson's Jacket in the Maritime Museum.
