Westminster views, one optional big attraction and a South Bank break. A compact family route with space for snacks and changes of plan.
Our suggested time allowances include breaks and buffers; they are not live opening hours or guaranteed journey times. Map pins identify the area, not your ticket’s meeting point.
Choose one paid attraction as the anchor. Time allowances include breathing room, but not an exact queue prediction. Check stroller and accessibility rules for your chosen attraction.
Route order is a planning suggestion. Check current ferry services, road access and travel times before setting off.
Look towards Big Ben and the river, then cross at your own pace. This is an outdoor stop rather than a Parliament tour.
Getting there: Start near Westminster station and follow the pedestrian crossings.
Book a ride if it suits your family, or enjoy the riverside view from below. Allow for boarding and check the age categories rather than multiplying an adult fare.
Getting there: Walk to the South Bank; allow 15–20 min with children.
Make room for outdoor play, a snack and boat watching. The photo shows the Thames setting. Let everyone’s energy decide how far along the river you go.
Getting there: Stay on the riverside; pause for lunch before continuing.
Visitor information: Visit London — South Bank for kids. Route choices and time allowances are Sightmigo editorial suggestions.
