    I'm very excited, in less than a month i'll go to London for five days. I've never been in another country and i always wanted to go to England. Is there any place, any activity that you could advise me on ?

    I second looking for plays at the theatre. There's usually something good on. Personally I found M&M world a bit boring and the chocolate is way overpriced but it's worth looking into.
    -Madame Tussaud's
    -London Dungeons (possibly)
    -Museums like the national gallery, Tate modern, science museum, natural history museum
    -Camden market is also pretty cool

    I recommend you check out some of the smaller museums, I once visited the museum of Brands, Packaging and Advertising and it was surprisingly fascinating! Also see if you can get yourself a tour of the Houses of Parliament, it's an amazing building and there's some great history there.

    Have a great time in London!

    It depends what you are into? If you want to look at the London skyline you should consider the London Eye, but you might also wish to consider a trip to the top of The Shard.

    London has plenty of museums, galleries and historical attractions and they are usually free to visit, but if you want to do some sightseeing try an open top bus tour or Thames river boat. Getting around London is easiest on the Underground (Subway), in my opinion.

    In the evening, you might want to take in a show at a London Theatre.

    I want to see literally everything but it's really expensive so my mother, my sister and I are gonna have to be careful about how we spend our money. But we'll still have a great time i'm sure.

    Definitely visit the museums (Natural History Museum!!) and the theatres in London. London in itself is an experience and just by simply walking around (in the right neighbourhoods, of course), you will find little things that make it extremely unique.
