  1. The Shard (<\/strong>Joiner Street<\/strong>,\u00a0London\u00a0SE1)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

From the humble surroundings of Elephant & Castle all the way over to the pretty lights of the London Eye it really does give you a bird\u2019s eye view of the bustling city below. Although it comes at a high cost with tickets from \u00a325.95 upwards it\u2019s something you should do at least once in your life\u2026 and a glass of champagne is included, who can say no!<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Shakespeare Globe Theatre (<\/strong>21 New Globe Walk<\/strong>,\u00a0London\u00a0SE1 9DT)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      A wonderful day out with both family and friends. Where better than to experience Shakespeare in all his glory through the stunning architecture of the one and only Globe Theatre.

        \n
      1. Tate Modern (<\/strong>53 Bankside<\/strong>,\u00a0London\u00a0SE1 9TG)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
