£2 London Tour

After 20+ hours of travel we were exhausted, and with the rain on and off it was tough for our 8-year-old to walk around. Thankfully, the staff at Victoria Station pointed us to the perfect hack: Bus 26 — an almost 1-hour ride past all the iconic landmarks for under £2 per adult (kids ride free!) 🚍✨ Just tap your credit card and go.

And while we didn’t manage to find any good restaurants that day, the Sainsbury’s meal deal impressed us — fresh, healthy, and even offering sushi, noodle, or rice bowls as the main 🥗🍣

Sometimes the simplest choices turn into the best experiences. 💛

... Read moreIf you're traveling in London with kids, Bus 26 is a fantastic and budget-friendly way to explore the city without the hassle of changing transport modes. This route takes you past many well-known landmarks, making it a convenient option for sightseeing. Plus, kids travel free on London buses, which is a huge bonus for families looking to save. In my experience, tapping your contactless payment card directly when boarding is incredibly convenient—no need to buy separate tickets or passes. The journey lasts nearly an hour, so it's perfect for soaking in the city's atmosphere while resting tired legs. Additionally, while we didn’t find dining options that day, I was impressed by the Sainsbury’s meal deals available at stations like Victoria. They offer fresh and varied choices including sushi, noodle, and rice bowls, ideal for a quick, healthy, and affordable meal while on the go. For those planning to get around beyond Bus 26, nearby tube stations like Victoria offer connections to Bond Street and Covent Garden, broadening your travel options. So whether you want to hop off and explore or enjoy the ride as a relaxing city tour, Bus 26 and surrounding transport links provide excellent flexibility for families and solo travelers alike.

sometimes, it’s okay to be a little basic. especially in a city like london — where the “touristy” spots are actually… pretty worth it. here’s how i spent 4 days doing the classic things, and had the best time 🇬🇧 (especially if you’re into museums, musicals, & a little bit of nature ✨)
