I’ve been to London more times than I can count—but often only for a quick one-day layover. Still, I’ve learned how to make the most of even the shortest visit. With a little planning, you can soak in the city’s iconic sights, grab a bite at a local favorite, and feel like you truly experienced London—even in just a few hours. Here are some of my favorite things to do when I have just one day to spare in this dynamic, historic city.
