7 hours in London
 

Hi, i've 7 hours in London next Wednesday and am loking for things to do.

I'll be there from around 1.15 until 8 o'clock.

Any ideas appreciated

Is that 7 hours between flights - if so which airport?

no its seven hours in London, i'm from the UK and i've a training course in the morning and i'm meeting a friend there at 8pm to travel back to Nottingham

A stroll around Hyde Park, stop in at the Serpentine Gallery for the current (free) exhibition), walk down Exhibition Rd to the museums, have a look at the V&A and have tea there

Take a boat ride down to Greenwich, walk through the park to the Observatory (free), take the DLR back.

Hampstead Heath?

Visit the Wetlands Project in Barnes?

If wet, stay in town, visit the National Gallery, National Portrait Gallery, the Courtauld (all near each other around Trafalgar Square), possibly Covent Garden and up Neal St.

The National Gallery is open until 9 on Wednesdays, so that could help with the hiatus before you meet your friend at 8 if you don't want to sit in a café or a pub.

Theatre matinee???
