London/Paris trip itinerary

Question — Itinerary

We are taking a trip in June to London and Paris. We will spend 3 days in London and then take the Eurostar to Paris to spend another 3 days before returning home. It will be a once in a lifetime trip for us so I’d like to do as much as possible. I’ve been know to have very eventful travel itineraries as I like to explore news places and do as much as possible in that place.

We fly in Sunday morning and arrive at 8 AM and we are staying in Covent Garden. We are strongly considering taking the Eurostar to Paris late Tuesday night instead of waking up early on Wednesday.

Sunday

———————-

Walk around Covent garden

Big Ben & parliament photo ops

Churchill war rooms - 1 PM

National gallery - short visit

Sky garden

Trafalgar Square

Piccadilly square - nighttime visit

The only thing on Sunday that has a timed entry is the Churchill War rooms. The rest of the day is just walking and exploring and taking pictures.

First thing we are doing is the Arc de Triumphe and then we will walk and explore the place de la Concorde, Tuleries Gardens, and go to the Palais Royal. None of these are very time consuming visits.
