Contact your MP to arrange a tour!

When we took ours about 20 years ago, it cost £2pp for the Usher who doubled up as a tour guide. Obviously, the cost could have gone up, but its still well worth it. The offspring was about 8 at the time and learnt a lot.

thankyou ladies, i asked him were he would like to go and he said.



to see the houses of parliment and big ben!!! :-0

hes been doing about them in schoool apparently lol,

i remember mum took us on a boat on the river serpant, powweeeee it stinks lol,


we still have sopme time yet but im liking lyndas idea of the number 11,lol

Just take him on a boat on the river - he'll love it. He can do all the other suggestions when he's older, imo :-D

Yep Postmans Park, just around the corner from Barts Hospital.

A collection of plaques that commemorate people that have died in unusual circumstances. Not morbid at all.

Pretty pond, and a nice place to sit and eat.

The alley opposite the Courts of Justice lead to the Temple Church, dedicated to the Knights Templar. The Da Vinci Code was filmed there. Only open at selected times, but worth a visit, just to see how tiny it is.

Loads of things to do Stray, but how many you can fit into one day, is another question!

he would love it kay he loves culture :-D :-D

:-D :-D@ Joy,

That little man is far too young to be taken in the area of Chinatowwn Soho, ;-) :-D :-D :-D :-D.

though i did say the live food was to be kept as pets lol :-D

he loved epcot when we were in florida because of all the wonders of the dfferent countrys, so i think he will be amazed by china town x

Great, granny knows best xx :-D :-D :-D

he will think he has gone to china he will love it
he loves going to the little forgein shops
we visit while shopping and seeing diffrent foods
but trying them would be a diffrent matter

he is such a fussy child where food is :-D

I agree Joy, I love Chinatown too, but would a little boy? xx

Stray, the Museum of Childhood in Bethnal Green is a great place to visit. I take my little man there every other Friday for an hour or so, it gives him a break from school work and he loves it.

Lynda is right about Postmans park and the pond is quite cute. :)

china town
i just love the place its like a diffrent world :-D

Victoria & Albert for me Stray....amazing place. My daughter had a piece of work shown there so am a bit bias ;-)

O.K then lolly call it 60p an hour :-D

Victoria and Albert I could spend hours in there its always changing.....something for everyone....

Would you pay me 30p an hour for my guided tour Lolly?

Cheap at half the price Lynda :-D

Have to include a few watering holes on the way tho...lol :-D

I don't know how many on here know a place called Postmans Park, it's just a short walk from St Paul's Cathedral, it's a most unusual place, very tranquil, but in the middle of the hustle and bustle, it's well worth a visit if you're nearby....
