DAY 3 SOHO TO COVENT GARDEN

Set right in Covent Garden, the kids will love the exhibits covering the history of transport and the growth of modern London since 1800. Historic vehicles, worldfamous posters and lots of interactive things to play with!

The world’s leading museum of urban transport, it’s a great place to absorb London’s journey over time. ltmuseum.co.uk

Stop for lunch at one of the food trucks or for a real taste of London restaurant history, book a table at the very swanky Rules, a vision in red velvet. Established in 1798 it’s a legendary address on Maiden Lane. Trawl the stalls or catch the street artists performing - there’s plenty to while away a few hours before strolling back to Soho.

Get lost in the maze that is Soho, take in a show, stop by Leicester Square or just indulge in window shopping in Carnaby Street until you hit Piccadilly Circus. From there, it’s a short skip to Hamley’s, a treasure trove of toys for kids!
