無論是週末小旅行還是週間短暫停留，倫敦兩日遊絕不會讓您失望。 從舉世聞名的城市地標到 Oxford Street 和 Portobello Road 的購物之旅，再到時尚前衛的 Hoxton 以及 Richmond Park 的鹿群，各類景點的多樣性連倫敦人自己都感到驚訝。 妥善規劃行程 您將能讓旅程充滿驚喜；若規劃不當，您最終可能會把所有時間都花在搭乘地鐵（Tube）上。 這就是為什麼我們特別為您準備了這份實用的倫敦兩日遊行程，其中的天數安排可以輕鬆互換！
第 1 天上午
在倫敦兩日遊中，您可以從一千個不同的地方開啟行程。 但我們建議您前往 Buckingham Palace 門外，觀看上午 11:00 的衛兵交接儀式。 該儀式在夏季每天舉行（屆時也可以進入白金漢宮國事廳參觀），冬季則每週舉行四次。 這項儀式結合了華麗傳統、激昂音樂與一流騎術，參與其中是英國軍隊最大的榮譽之一。 接著穿過 St James’s Park 觀賞鵜鶘，同時眺望 Big Ben 與 Houses of Parliament，這裡也是倫敦四處 UNESCO 世界遺產之一。 就在正對面，您會看到 Westminster Abbey，自 1066 年以來，除兩位君主外，所有英格蘭君主都在這座教堂加冕。
下午
附近的 Victoria Street 有許多可以用餐的地方，接著您可以將注意力轉向被稱為 Whitehall 的大道。 街道兩旁林立著宏偉的政府辦公大樓，您可以順道造訪容易被忽略的 Downing Street 大門，這裡也是英國首相的官邸。 接著前往 Trafalgar Square，自 1868 年以來，廣場上的青銅獅一直守護著 Nelson’s column。 廣場北側坐落著 National Gallery。 館藏橫跨數個世紀的西方藝術，亮點包括李奧納多·達文西、維梅爾的作品，以及梵谷其中一幅著名的《向日葵》；此外還提供對英國藝術家的百科全書式介紹，保證讓您的下午餘下時光充實度過。
晚上
經由 Hungerford Bridge 和 Golden Jubilee Bridge 橫跨泰晤士河，您將來到景點林立的河濱地帶。 找準時機， 您就能在夕陽開始落下之際，乘坐 London Eye 的玻璃觀景艙，俯瞰倫敦天際線的美景。 這是一個非常值得花時間去體驗的景致。 隨後，您可以前往 Leake Street 隧道欣賞街頭藝術，再到 Waterloo 一帶豐富多樣的酒吧和地下俱樂部放鬆身心。 位於 Southbank Center 的 Queen Elizabeth Hall 展現了粗獷主義風格，其頂層花園酒吧（The Roof Garden & Bar）無論您想喝什麼，都是一個值得信賴的好去處。 此外，Sea Containers House 的酒吧也各具特色，其優雅迷人的室內裝潢重現了旅遊黃金時代的風采，與迷人的河岸景觀交相輝映。
第 2 天上午
兩天的倫敦之旅已經過半，請把握時間，抖擻精神，在 Tower of London的倫敦塔衛兵帶領下展開您的早晨，並近距離欣賞陳列櫃中璀璨奪目的王冠珠寶（Crown Jewels）。 其中更包括被稱為「庫里南一世」（Cullinan I）的全球最大淨度切工鑽石。 體積較小但更負盛名的 105 克拉「光之山」鑽石（Koh-i-Noor）被鑲嵌在地位次於國王或王后的王室成員服飾上，最近一次是鑲嵌在伊莉莎白王太后的王冠上。 若想享受片刻寧靜，可以前往聖鄧斯坦教堂花園（St Dunstan in the East），這是一座由教堂遺址改建而成的花園；接著從倫敦橋跨越泰晤士河，捕捉宏偉壯麗的 Tower Bridge 美景。 繼續直行前往自治市高街（Borough High Street），這裡是從查爾斯·狄更斯到傑米·奧利佛等名人曾頻繁出入的地點，當地琳瑯滿目的街頭小吃攤絕對能滿足您在午餐時分的胃口。
下午
The View from the Shard 仍是城中最熱門的景點之一，您可以在 70 層樓的高空俯瞰倫敦全景，視野最遠可延伸至 65 公里。 在夏季月份，您可以花上整個下午，在莎士比亞環球劇場（The Globe Theater）的複刻建築中欣賞一場莎士比亞的喜劇、悲劇或歷史劇。 若非演出季節，則可以改往泰特現代藝術館（Tate Modern）欣賞當代藝術，接著前往聖保羅大教堂（St Paul’s Cathedral），這座擁有淺色石牆的建築是倫敦另一座重要的教堂。 這座教堂在 1666 年倫敦大火後由克里斯多福·雷恩爵士（Sir Christopher Wren）重建。您可以搭乘中央線（Central Line）快速抵達牛津圓環（Oxford Circus），在日落前享受購物時光，那裡是前往牛津街（Oxford Street）與攝政街（Regent Street）各大商店的門戶。 後者以設計師名店而聞名，也是全球最大且最古老的玩具店——漢姆利玩具店（Hamleys）的所在地。 該店自 1881 年起便屹立於現址，其品牌則創立於 1760 年。
晚上
富裕的蘇活區（Soho）鄰近倫敦一些最高級的街區，擁有倫敦最棒的購物場所。 然而，霍克斯頓廣場（Hoxton Square）周邊的街道（包括肖迪奇高街 Shoreditch High Street），才是酒吧與夜店大放異彩的地方。 這裡應有盡有，從供應溫暖艾爾啤酒的傳統英式酒吧，到提供最新雞尾酒的 LGBTQ+ 友善去處，這片曾經被遺忘的區域已重獲新生，成為在倫敦度過夜晚絕對不容錯過的熱點。 說到用餐，倫敦擁有一些當今最頂尖的主廚在幕後施展身手，為客人呈獻驚豔的料理。 如果您想以奢華的方式為這 2 天的倫敦之旅畫下句點，您有超過 60 間米其林星級餐廳可以考慮。 即便預算有限，您仍可享受美食，卡姆登（Camden）匯集了來自世界各地的風味，而紅磚巷（Brick Lane）則是南亞料理的中心。
如何安排倫敦 2 日遊行程
選擇在倫敦待上 2 天，您將迎來行程滿滿、精彩充實的兩日時光。 但如果您擔心費用增加的速度，就像尖峰時段的中央線（Central Line）地鐵車廂客滿一樣快，我們有解決方案。 那就是使用 Go City 展開旅程。 這樣做，您就能在倫敦許多頂尖景點的入場費用上節省驚人開支，這意味著您可以用同樣的旅遊預算體驗比平常更多的活動！
Day 1: Art, culture and history in Central London
Day 1: Art, culture and history in Central London
Morning:
There are a zillion different places where you could kick off your two days in London. But we’re going to start at London Victoria, as it’s easy to reach from just about anywhere in town, and it’s well placed for a wander into historic Westminster.
Grab breakfast at the station and mosey up and along Buckingham Palace Road, which is where – as the name makes abundantly clear – you’ll find Buckingham Palace, official residence of the British monarch. First things first though: walk straight on past it and into St James’s Park, a bucolic oasis in the urban heart of the city, with plenty of benches and lawns on which to finally get involved with all those cronuts, fruit pots and granola bowls you’ve been juggling since you left Victoria. Do note, however, that you may be required to share them with the resident squirrels, ducks and pelicans, like something out of a Disney movie. Sort of.
Suitably fortified, seek out the best fairytale views of the palace where it peeps through the foliage and is reflected in the lake below, before joining a tour in time for the 11AM Changing of the Guard (daily in summer; four times a week in winter). Combining pomp and tradition with stirring music and first-rate horsemanship, it’s a slice of British pageantry that’s just too irresistible to miss.
Afterwards, battle the crowds along Birdcage Walk and onto Parliament Square, for some of London’s finest architectural eye candy, including Westminster Abbey and the Palace of Westminster (aka the Houses of Parliament). And yes, that’s Big Ben chiming the hour right in front of you. Blimey, it’s nearly lunchtime already!
Afternoon:
Make a left along the grand thoroughfare that is Whitehall, pausing at the easy-to-miss gates to Downing Street, home of the British Prime Minister, before continuing up to The Strand, Charing Cross Station and their veritable smorgasbord of takeout lunch options. Rumbling belly quietened (for now), double back to Trafalgar Square, whose fearsome bronze lions have stood guard at the base of Nelson’s column since 1868. On the square’s north side stands the National Gallery. Spanning centuries of western art, collection highlights include works by Leonardo da Vinci, Johannes Vermeer and one of Vincent van Gogh’s Sunflowers, as well as providing an encyclopedic introduction to British artists that’s sure to keep you busy for the rest of the afternoon.
Afterwards, stop by Covent Garden – home of the city’s most popular piazza and the excellent London Transport Museum. Dawdle here a while to watch the street performers doing their thang, and perhaps to reward yourself with a cocktail on one of the Apple Market’s elevated terraces.
Evening:
Cross the Thames via the Hungerford or Golden Jubilee Bridges to reach the South Bank, a cultural riverside hub that’s packed with attractions. Time it right and you’ll be able to sail above the London skyline inside one of the London Eye’s air-conditioned glass pods just as the sun begins to set over the capital.
Follow it up with a snap-happy stroll through the Leake Street Arches (aka the Banksy Tunnel) beneath Waterloo Station, with 300 meters of cutting-edge graffiti to ogle. There are plenty of places to dine around here, too, especially around the Southbank Centre, a love-it-or-loathe-it slab of brutalist 1950s architecture, of which Royal Festival Hall is where it’s at for live shows and terrace drinks with ace nighttime Thames views. Meanwhile, the nearby BFI Southbank and BFI IMAX cinemas have all your arthouse, indie and blockbuster movie-going needs covered.
Day 2: Towers, theaters and nightlife
Day 2: Towers, theaters and nightlife
Morning:
With half your two-day trip to London already gone there’s no time to lose, so shake off any fuzzy heads you might have and start the morning with the Tower of London’s famous Beefeaters and their resident raven pals. Expect wild tales of murder, mystery, passion and intrigue, many centered around gouty serial monogamist Henry VIII and his tragic, doomed wives. You can also gaze goggle-eyed into the heavily guarded display cases that house the Crown Jewels. They include the largest clear-cut diamond in the world, known as Cullinan I, as well as the ceremonial St Edward’s Crown. Worn at the coronation of every British monarch since Charles II in 1661, it’s anything but old hat.

Afterwards, head west towards London Bridge, pausing for a breather en route amid the pretty gardens and ruins of the church of St Dunstan-in-the-East. Once on London Bridge, stop to enjoy views back downriver to the (much grander) Tower Bridge, with its iconic neo-gothic turrets.
Afternoon:
Hark, is that the thundering of trains overhead, or the sound of your stomach complaining that it’s been running on empty since breakfast? Well, good news: you’ve just arrived at Borough Market, where some of the city’s best street food stalls – think super-gooey potato raclette, slow-roasted pork sandwiches, spicy Indian dals and jam donuts the size of your face – will almost certainly persuade you to come back for second (or maybe even third) helpings.
Grab a fresh brew to go from the legendary Monmouth Coffee Company (or a quick pint at the old-school Market Porter alehouse), before hitting up one of the hottest tickets in town: The Shard. You can’t really miss this one: it’s only the tallest building in the UK. Yes, that great big glass thing that’s been lurking within your line of vision for pretty much the whole day so far. Whiz 72 floors up to The View from the Shard, to see London and all its many landmarks spread out far beneath your feet. Look: there’s St Paul’s Cathedral over there. And the Tower of London. And Wembley Stadium. Keen-eyed visitors may also be able to pick out the distant turrets of Windsor Castle, some 25 miles west of The Shard.
Next, it’s choose-your-own-adventure time. There’s a glut of world-class attractions just a short way from The Shard. Take your pick from the iconic dome and celeb-filled crypt and of St Paul’s Cathedral, get another eye-popping art fix at the Tate Modern, or go time traveling back to the Elizabethan era at Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre.
Afterwards, hop on the bus or Tube for the short ride to Oxford Circus from where, if you have time, you can indulge your inner shopaholic – you’re just a short walk to Selfridges department store, seven stories of fun at Hamleys’ flagship Regent Street toy emporium, and the credit card-melting boutiques of Bond Street.
Evening:
You’re in the West End, baby, so at the very least you should be looking to take in a show. This, after all, is the world’s best theater district this side of Broadway, with perennial musical favorites including Wicked, Les Miserables, Matilda, The Lion King and The Mousetrap to choose from, as well as dramas, comedies and other such grandiose productions.
You can grab a quick dinner in Chinatown beforehand – just follow your nose to the heady scents of spicy noodles and roast duck on and around Gerrard Street, just off the main theatrical drag of Shaftesbury Avenue.
There’s no need to call it a night after screaming your lungs out to Defying Gravity or Don’t Cry for Me Argentina either. For night owls, the intoxicating nightlife of Soho awaits, all subterranean speakeasies, bustling bars and high-energy clubs. You won’t have to walk far along Frith, Greek or Old Compton Street to find a buzzy venue that’s right for you. Just don’t stay up too late, you’ve got a flight to catch in the morning.
