London 4 nights

Following my post about Ireland I would also love itinerary ideas for our 4 nights/5 days in London! Definitely want to do one day trip to see Stonehenge. Other than that, we love museums, parks, outdoor activities and a nice pub or two.

If you have four nights in London, you have three full days, not 5. You will have a couple of hours on two different days in addition to your three days in London, but that's it. And you are going to spend on of your three days at Stonehenge - you need to have very limited goals in London.

My top things in London: The Tower of London, the British Museum, and if you love gardens, go out to Kew.

I looked at your other thread and I think you are trying to go too many places. If you have two nights somewhere, it is just one day. I figure if some place is only worth a day, it probably isn't worth including.

Oh -- sorry for the double post. The site froze up so I thought it didn't take. I edited and tried again . . . and both took.

I'm a pretty frequent traveler and although two nights is a short amount of time, I plan on spending is wisely and I dont have any major goals for Amsterdam other than seeing parts of the city. As for London the itinerary looked something like this.
DAY 1: buckingham palace, british museum, london eye
DAY 2: Palace of Westminster and Churchill War rooms
DAY 3: Stonehenge
Day 4: more museums, outdoor activities

Thats perfect! The goal was to have a really busy day or two getting all activities in and then time to wander and enjoy the city. Now, am i being crazy ambitious if I tried taking a train from london to stonehenge early and then stonehenge to oxford and oxford back to the city?

And how much time should I allow for Oxford? I would be happy seeing the university and a couple spots in town. Nothing too extensive

we took a coach tour to Stonehenge...with evans I think it was
it included bath..
ive done two tours like that..long days but you see quite a bit

id love to stay in bath independently but probably wont having been there twice

Look...the tours are always limiting...but when you have only a day theyre efficient

you can book a tour when you get to London
just see what the weather forecast is
