Top London Zoos & Wildlife Parks

Guarantee your entry before you arrive at the London Zoo by pre-booking your tickets. This major conservation zoo and tourist attraction has enough habitats and activities to keep you—and your kids—engaged for hours. Once you head inside, you can explore its highlights all at your own pace, and visit the animals that interest you most.

Immerse yourself in the sights and scents of London’s breathtaking Kew Gardens. A UNESCO-listed venue, the Royal Botanic Gardens features a diverse array of rare plants and flowers across 326 acres (132 hectares). Discover the lawns and gardens on foot, stroll along the Treetop Walkway to view some of the gardens’ 14,000 trees, and visit magnificent structures like the Royal Kew Palace and the Palm House – one of the largest surviving Victorian glasshouses. Note that last entry is at 2:30 p.m. as the gardens close at 3:15 p.m.

The Tower of London holds nearly a thousand years of history across a sprawling complex, and it's easy to miss the stories behind what you're seeing on your own. Follow a Beefeater through the grounds instead, hearing the history as you go. See the Crown Jewels, step inside the White Tower, and visit Traitors' Gate and Tower Green, the execution site of Anne Boleyn.

The South Bank's busiest attractions draw long entry lines, especially in the school holidays. Booking SEA LIFE® London Aquarium in advance lets you pick a time slot and head in at the hour you choose. Inside, themed zones take you through marine life from sharks and eels to clownfish and turtles, with a glass tunnel that puts the tanks overhead and a suspended platform above the sharks, plus daily feedings and talks.

Inside, the attraction runs on interactive performances, a 4D DreamWorks bus ride through London, and walk-through themed areas, with characters from the films appearing along the way.

Getting to the Harry Potter™ studio tour means a trek out to Watford and sorting your own trains, on top of timing entry to a site that books up. This small-group tour handles both, with round-trip train transport from central London and timed entry arranged. Inside, walk the original film sets, see props and costumes from across the eight movies, and learn how they were made.
