A complete itinerary to spend a fulfilling 10 days in London, with hidden gems, food spots, and landmarks – all the best things to do in London in one guide!
I don’t just visit countries. The way my mind works, the only way to really experience a city is to live in it; this might be a deformation as I have always wanted to become a digital nomad.
But if you’re not moving to the UK and are planning to visit for the first time, starting with a good 10 days in London makes for a good chunk of time to discover lots of landmarks and hidden corners of the city.
10 Days in London Itinerary – Secret Spots, Landmarks & Food
The guide that you’re about to read is precisely the one I would have wanted to skim through before I first arrived in the UK.
I knew about some of London’s famous shopping streets, and about some posh areas like South Kensington, but there are so many secret spots I had no idea about, like Camden Passage, or Holly Village.
As we’re embarking on very full days, make sure you’re wearing the most comfortable sneakers you’ve ever worn on vacation – we’re going to be walking our fair share every single day…
But the upside?
You’re going to pop by all the famous landmarks, along with some more secret, maritime neighborhoods, many unique shops, and some of my favorite historical sites in London!
10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 1
Morning: Covent Garden, Leicester Square, Piccadilly, Chinatown, Soho
Our first day in London start in the center of the city; Covent Garden, Leicester Square, Piccadilly, Chinatown and Soho will be the starting point of our trip.
Let’s start with breakfast at Bageriet Bakery, with delicious cinnamon buns, discover a few of the beautiful Covent Garden streets, and go window-shopping for a bit.
I find Stanfords, one of the most beautiful bookshops in London, to be especially worthy of a visit, if only to check out the colorful balloons and globe collection.
Covent Garden’s shops are amongst the best in the world; from high-end makeup to macarons at Ladurée and vintage shops, there’s pretty much anything there.
From Covent Garden, less than 10 minutes’ walk take us to Leicester Square, where we will spend a few minutes discovering the Sculpture Trail, a must for anyone who loves cartoons and movies.
We will then make our way out of Leicester Square, walking past the Twinings, Lego and M&Ms shops until we reach Piccadilly Circus.
There, a couple of pictures are must-haves, and with the Lillywhites department store to our left, we will walk up Piccadilly, the main road right across.
If Covent Garden is a lively but posh area, Piccadilly is even posher.
That’s where you will find some of London’s best perfume shops, art galleries, trendy cafes, and Fortnum & Mason, another department store very much worth knowing.
For lunch, let’s pop by Chinatown or Soho; my pick would be one of the Chinatown restaurants, or rather, a place where I can get some cheap eats like veggie buns at Chinese Tapas House.
The day is full, and if we want to see everything, there’s no better way (in my opinion!) than getting street food and eat it while taking in the beauty of Central London’s streets.

Afternoon: Oxford Street, Regent Street, St James’s Park
From Soho and Chinatown, it’s super easy to get to our afternoon spots. We’ll kick things off at Oxford Street and Regent Street, two of the best shopping areas in London.
If you’re up for exploring more of Soho’s hidden gems, head over to Carnaby Street.
You can get there from several streets, including Regent Street, whose gorgeous neoclassical architecture always leaves me in awe.
Then, Oxford Street is also packed with shops. Whether you’re hunting for top British brands, high-street fashion, or cool streetwear, you’ll find it all here.
To wrap up the day, we’ll head back to Piccadilly Circus to watch the sunlight fade over the famous square.
From there, we’ll take a stroll down to St. James’s Park – it’s one of London’s most iconic parks and a fantastic spot to enjoy the sunset, especially around Duck Island Cottage (pictured above).

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 2
Morning: Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Hay’s Galleria, The Shard
Day two of our 10 days in London kicks off in the city and wraps up in one of my favorite neighborhoods, London Bridge.
We’ll start at the Tower of London, a must-visit spot especially if you’re into the dark academia aesthetic.
I suggest walking from City Hall through Tower Bridge; at the end of the bridge, you’ll spot the famous Tower of London on your left, a medieval site that draws crowds daily.
But here’s my little twist.
Instead of heading straight to the Tower, take a right at the end of Tower Bridge and stroll down the river to St. Katharine Docks. It’s one of the prettiest spots in London, complete with boats, restaurants, and riverside cafés.
Next, let’s cross the bridge again and make our way to Hays Galleria, a charming reminder of London’s past as a bustling port. You can choose to have breakfast here or just grab a quick snack.
One of my favorite spots is Café Piazza: I’ve been there countless times, and they serve amazing grilled banana cakes with chocolate coulis, or you can enjoy a cup of hot chocolate topped with whipped cream and marshmallows.
For lunch, get ready to splurge a bit at Hutong, one of my favorite fancy restaurants in town.
If you plan ahead, you can book a set lunch menu to save some money, and Hutong, since it offers some of the best views of London, is a must-visit at least once in your life.

Afternoon: Vinegar Yard, Bermondsey Street, Borough Market, Southbank, Big Ben
If you’re more into finding cheap eats, instead of Hutong, our stop for lunch should be Vinegar Yard. They’ve got a great selection of street food trucks and stalls, including some amazing Neapolitan pizza.
Next, we’ll head to Bermondsey Street, just a five-minute walk from Vinegar Yard. This charming street is lined with historic buildings, cute coffee shops, and unique antique stores.
There, you’ll also find hidden gems like secret alleys and sculptures tucked away in unexpected spots.
A short walk back towards London Bridge Station down St. Thomas Street brings us to Guy’s Hospital, where a hidden courtyard features a statue of the English poet John Keats.
With its arches and heavy bricks, this secret courtyard is a very aesthetic photo spot, and one most Londoners don’t even know about.
Cross the road, and you’ll reach Borough Market, arguably the most famous market in London – I recommend stopping by the fudge stand for a classic British treat.
If you’re in the mood for something more filling, check out Bread Ahead Bakery for their massive filled donuts with flavors like honeycomb, coconut, pistachio, or vanilla cream.
As the day winds down, we’ll stroll along the South Bank, my personal favorite spot in London.
It’s a great place to write or draw inspiration from the people passing by. Keep walking along the water, and you’ll come across a fantastic selection of secondhand books at the daily book market.
We’ll end our day by crossing Westminster Bridge, taking in the iconic views of Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and Westminster Abbey.
While I personally love discovering hidden gems over the typical landmarks, feel free to pick and choose your favorite parts of my ten-day itinerary to make your own perfect London adventure.

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 3
Morning: St Paul’s Cathedral and City of London
The third out of our 10 days in London kicks off at St. Paul’s Cathedral, one of the city’s most iconic landmarks.
What I particularly love about the St. Paul’s area is the mix of famous sights and hidden gems.
Surrounding this grand building, you’ll find local treasures like Paternoster Square, where the Gillie and Marc animal sculptures are often on display, along with historic streets, alleyways, and courtyards.
While you’re around St. Paul’s Cathedral, don’t miss these spots:
First, the Reflection Garden, one of the cutest church gardens in London, established on the site of a former church destroyed during the Great Fire of London in 1666.
Next, head to the top of the One New Change building. It houses some great stores like Oliver Bonas, a proper British brand for jewelry, books, quality home decor, and women’s fashion.
The real treat here is the free rooftop, offering stunning views of St. Paul’s Cathedral and the London skyline.
The morning is pretty open after exploring St. Paul’s Cathedral, really.
If you’re up for another viewpoint, check out the free viewing platform at Horizon 22 for even more breathtaking views of the city.
You should also visit the Royal Exchange to admire its incredible Italianate architecture.
Wander through the small alleyways and discover hidden gems like the Atlas sculpture on top of Atlas House and quirky secret gardens with carved wooden benches at St. Pancras Church Garden.

Afternoon: Shoreditch and Brick Lane
Since the City of London is close to East London, you can reach our afternoon spots either by bus or on foot.
Walking is a great option because you’ll pass by the historic Liverpool Street area and the Old Spitalfields Market, with its street food stalls and vintage shops.
If you take the bus, you’ll get to Shoreditch and Brick Lane faster.
Don’t worry, we’ll spend some time around Liverpool Street and Spitalfields regardless in a few days, as they are full of gardens, medieval sites, and hidden corners.
In Shoreditch, start with some food. One of my favorite affordable spots for Vietnamese food in London is Song Que Cafe on Kingsland Road.
After eating, explore Kingsland Road for street art and be sure to visit New Inn Yard, a literary location perfect for lovers of Shakespeare’s works. Commercial Road is also great for street art.
Once we’re done in Shoreditch, we’ll pass by Boxpark, known for its street food and independent boutiques (Astrid & Miyu for jewelry is great!), and head down Sclater Street to Brick Lane for even more street art.
If you’re interested, I’ve written a full self-guided walking tour of Brick Lane, highlighting the best spots for street art, stickers, and stencil work.
For a quick mid-afternoon snack, stop by Vida Bakery, a colorful vegan bakery, or Kahaila Cafe, one of my favorite breakfast spots in East London with rustic decor and huge slices of decadent layered cakes like red velvet and rainbow.
As you walk down Brick Lane, you’ll come across the famous Brick Lane Vintage Market and the Truman Breweries. Lose yourself in the stores, searching for retro hats, Burberry coats, or costume jewelry.
In the evening, I recommend either visiting Sleazy Pizza with its quirky decor or Pizza East, which faces Boxpark at the end of Bethnal Green Road.
However, since Brick Lane is known for its historically Indian population, you might want to try one of the local Indian restaurants. If you’re into cheap eats, my go-to is Beigel Bake for a delicious salt beef bagel.

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 4
Euston Road, King’s Cross, Angel, Camden Town and Primrose Hill
After our first three days in London and all that walking, you’re probably looking for a bit of a break.
Your feet are, at least.
So, today’s itinerary is a bit more relaxed.
We’ll start on Euston Road to check out the gorgeous nature mural that recently appeared near the hospital.
As we stroll down Euston Road, there are a few must-see spots.
First up is the Wellcome Collection, a fascinating medical and anatomy museum, a completely free museum which also features one of the cutest libraries in London.
Just a heads-up—keep an eye on your personal belongings here, especially your phone, as there have been lots of thefts from cyclists in this area lately.
Next, we’ll reach King’s Cross, where you can find plenty of places for breakfast or brunch. Grab a croissant or sandwich if the market in front of St. Pancras Station is on.
Then, we’ll wander through Pancras Square, a secret garden perfect for summer visits, and head slowly to Regent’s Canal, and Coal Drops Yard, filled with independent boutiques.
For lunch, we’ll make our way to Camden Town.
You can choose an affordable restaurant like Icco Pizza, known for having some of the cheapest pizzas in London, or enjoy some delicious Indian, Asian, or Lebanese food at Camden Lock Market.
There’s so much to do in Camden Town—explore the colorful streets that rival those of Notting Hill, shop for vintage finds, natural skincare at Sknfed, or edgy clothes at AllSaints.
To end the day, we’ll head to the beautiful Primrose Hill area.
Don’t miss out on Chalcot Square and Chalcot Crescent, with their picturesque houses perfect for sightseeing and photos.
Afterward, walk back or take the bus to Primrose Hill. Grab a meal deal in a nearby shop in Camden Town in the afternoon before visiting the park, sit on the grass with locals and tourists, and enjoy the sunset over London.

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 5
Morning: Fitzrovia, Marylebone and Mayfair
Our fifth day in London is designed to be a bit more relaxed, giving you a chance to recharge for the rest of the trip.
The middle days of an 7, 8 or 10 day itinerary are usually the most tiring in my experience, so we’re taking it easy to help you gather some strength.
And believe me, you’ll need it!
We’ll kick off our day in Fitzrovia, starting at Goodge Street. Pop by Caffè Napoli, my absolute favorite Italian cafe in London, for a quick pick-me-up—try their ginseng coffee or a latte with a filled croissant, Italian style.
Fitzrovia is full of charming shops and cute streets, perfect for a leisurely morning stroll – the Oxfam charity shop there is a really good one and often offers second hand designer bits.
Next, we’ll head to Marylebone, a posh area that feels like a little village within London, especially around Marylebone Lane.
This neighborhood is full of sophisticated shops like Sézane L’Appartement, beautiful mews and lovely winding streets.
For lunch, I recommend FishWorks, a fresh seafood restaurant with Italian notes, conveniently located nearby.
After lunch, we’ll visit Daunt Books, one of the prettiest bookstores in London.
From there, we’ll walk through James Street, another colorful and instagrammable street, and explore Christopher’s Place, a hidden alley with shops ranging from beauty to fashion.
Crossing Oxford Street, we’ll make our way to New Bond Street.
In the afternoon, we’ll spend some time in Mayfair, discovering gorgeous shopping arcades like Burlington Arcade.
Stop for a strong coffee at Flocafe and dream of an even better life while window shopping at Fendi, Fenwick, or Buccellati.
Why not keep the dream going with a walk down Piccadilly?
Discover Maison Assouline, a stunning bookshop that doubles as an afternoon tea spot, or visit Hatchards, the oldest bookshop in London.
If you don’t feel like splurging, you can also visit the Royal Academy of Arts with its beautiful painted ceilings and art collections.

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 6
Portobello Road, Notting Hill, Holland Park and Italian Gardens
On our sixth day, we’ll be exploring some iconic spots in West London, including Portobello Road and Notting Hill.
Since I’m not one for crowds, I prefer to start my day early around Portobello Road.
Grabbing breakfast at one of the pastry and street food stalls has been a ritual of mine for years.
It’s just magical to experience the quiet morning as the day begins, almost like stepping into a scene from the “Notting Hill” movie with Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant.
Walking down from Notting Hill Gate to Portobello Road, you’ll encounter oh so many colorful streets.
Lancaster Road is a must-see, but don’t miss Tavistock Road and other vibrant spots along the way.
Despite being famous for its vintage shops and street food, Portobello Road also boasts some incredible street art pieces worth admiring.
After a leisurely stroll, head towards Gloucester Road where you can indulge in a quick snack at Lisboa Patisserie, known for its delightful pastel de nata.
For the afternoon, our next stops are two charming gardens each with its own unique vibe.
The first is the tranquil Holland Park, easily accessible from Notting Hill Gate station.
Before heading to the park, explore hidden gems like Uxbridge Street, Farmer Street, and Hillgate Place, which offer perfect photo opportunities.
Inside Holland Park, don’t miss the peaceful Kyoto Garden, one of London’s few Japanese gardens, especially beautiful in spring and summer.
Another favorite spot of mine in Holland Park is the Dutch Garden with its manicured beds of flowers, its frescoes and fountain.
Once you’ve soaked in the beauty of Holland Park, we’re a short bus ride to Kensington Gardens near Lancaster Gate station.
Here, you’ll find the enchanting Italian Gardens with their ornate vases, fountains, and sculptures—a slice of Italy in London.
For dinner, being close to Marble Arch and Oxford Street, I’d recommend heading to Chinatown or Soho.
In Chinatown, Beijing Dumpling is a longtime favorite of mine, perfect for indulging in roasted duck, pancakes, and homemade dumplings.
If you’re in the mood for Malaysian cuisine, Rasa Sayang offers flavors unlike anything else – you might have to queue, but it’s so worth it.

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 7
Morning: Highgate, Highgate Cemetery and Holly Village
Our fourth, fifth, and sixth days on our 10-day itinerary were a bit more relaxed, but now we’re diving back into some serious exploration.
On the morning of our seventh day, we’ll kick things off in North London, specifically in the charming village-like neighborhood of Highgate.
You can get to Highgate either by bus, enjoying the views from the top of a double-decker, or by tube, followed by a pleasant walk from the station to our first stop: Holly Village.
This cluster of Gothic mansions is truly one of North London’s best-kept secrets, perfect for snapping pictures, sightseeing, and feeling transported back in time.
While it’s private property, just seeing it from the outside and marveling at its beauty is worth the visit.
Close by, you’ll find the famous Highgate Cemetery, split into two parts. The east side is renowned for its impressive tombs of notable figures like Karl Marx and stunning sculptures.
However, my personal favorite is the west side, which feels less structured and holds hidden gems like the atmospheric Egyptian Avenue with its circle of columns.
Whether you’re into creepy places, historical sites, or simply seeking beautiful spots to explore in London, Highgate Cemetery is an absolute must-visit.

Afternoon: Smithfield, Holborn, Barbican
In the afternoon of our seventh day, we’ll continue exploring historical sites, and the best part is they’re all free.
By the way, if you’re on the lookout for completely free things to do in London, I’ve written a few posts in which I’ve included various activities perfect for solo travels, romantic dates, or family outings.
But for now, let’s head over to the Smithfield neighborhood.
Smithfield is home to the Charterhouse, the Smithfield meat market, Cloth Fair, and Saint Bartholomew the Great church.
It’s one of the oldest parts of London, still boasting medieval features that transport you back in time as you walk around. After wandering through the narrow streets of Smithfield, we’ll make our way to Barbican.
Barbican is a must-visit if you’re a history enthusiast; with St. Giles Cripplegate church, St Alphage Church ruins and the London Wall trail, it offers countless sights.
If you have the time and energy, explore the Barbican Centre with its artificial lakes and striking Brutalist architecture.
And then, as we’re starting to be a wee bit tired, to wrap up our day, we’ll head to the Holborn area.
If you’re fortunate enough to not have to wait too long, I recommend visiting the Sir John Soane’s Museum.
This quirky place offers a fascinating collection ranging from Roman sculptures to Egyptian artifacts and intricate paintings.
From Holborn station, then, take a stroll down Long Acre, a bustling shopping street that leads you right into Covent Garden, with Leicester Square not too far away.
For dinner in Covent Garden, there’s an amazing Vietnamese restaurant, Com Viet, on Garrick Street, or if you’re craving pizza, Pizza Pilgrims on the same street is another great choice.
Of course, Covent Garden offers plenty of other dining options too, including halal restaurants if you have specific dietary preferences.

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 8
Morning: Spitalfields and Liverpool Street
Yesterday, we explored many historical spots in North London and the City of London.
Today, we’re diving into East London, starting around Liverpool Street station.
If you’re just looking for a quick coffee, you’ll find plenty of options along Liverpool Street, from Pret a Manger to Costa Coffee.
But if you’re in the mood for a proper breakfast, I highly recommend visiting Polo Bar Café, one of the few 24-hour cafés in London.
At the end of Sun Street Passage, behind the station, you’ll stumble upon a very secretive spot: Exchange Square: it offers a view of the back of Liverpool Street station, with skyscrapers in the distance.
What’s really cool about Exchange Square are the sculptures part of the Broadgate Art Trail, like the Commuters sculpture and a huge Venus sculpture.
Don’t forget to explore Broadgate Circle for lunch; it’s filled with numerous restaurants and cafes.
Make sure to also check out The Loom installation, which pays homage to Liverpool Street’s history as a silk neighborhood.
While we’re in Liverpool Street, it’s also worth taking a stroll through the hidden alleys and historic streets of the Spitalfields area.
Places like Artillery Passage and Puma Court, vintage shops, street art, and even sculptures of elephants and a goat – there really is a lot to see in Spitalfields.
A must-see during your walk in Spitalfields is Charnel House, a former ossuarium dating back to the Middle Ages, still visible under Bishop’s Square.
Read: The Best Things to Do in London When It Rains
Afternoon: Canary Wharf
In the afternoon, we’ll head to Canary Wharf, which is easily one of the poshest areas in London—primarily because it’s the financial hub of the city.
The skyscrapers here provide an amazing backdrop for photos. But that’s just the beginning; there’s also a shopping center and an art trail that runs from Canada Place to West India Quay.
Make sure not to miss Westferry Circus, as it offers a view of the Thames River and plenty of benches to simply relax, have a picnic, and enjoy the quietness of the place.
We’ll stay until sunset over Canary Wharf, which has always been my favorite spot to catch the most beautiful sunsets in London – the sky turns burning shades of pink and orange.
When it comes to dining options, Canary Wharf has it all—from halal restaurants to street food stalls.
To finish the day on a good note, we’ll visit the Traffic Light Tree, an extraordinary, eerie, weird and inspiring installation made up of dozens of traffic lights.

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 9
Morning: Temple Neighborhood and Somerset House
On our ninth day in London, we’ll split our time between exploring the hidden gems of the City of London and ending the afternoon in one of London’s most secret neighborhoods, Rotherhithe.
We’ll start by hopping off at St. Paul’s and strolling down historic Fleet Street.
Along this route, you’ll encounter secret churches like St. Bride’s Church and St. Dunstan-in-the-West, remnants of Fleet Street’s past as a hub for printing and journalism.
As you walk closer to The Strand, keep an eye out for hidden passageways that lead you into the Temple area, a historic legal district filled with offices.
Take a moment to explore the serene courtyards, such as Fountain Court, where you can relax, have a picnic and admire the stunning architecture.
Continuing along The Strand, you’ll discover more hidden treasures like the abandoned Aldwych Tube station and sculptures like the feminine busts on Milford Lane.
Somerset House awaits nearby, offering a blend of coffee shops, restaurants, and the Courtauld Gallery, which is definitely worth a visit.
However, what I love most about Somerset House is its terrace – free to access, with many tables from which you can enjoy views of the Thames.
Read: The Best Non Touristy Things to Do in London
Afternoon: Rotherhithe Neighborhood
Since seeing the Thames River is already quite heartwarming, let’s spend the afternoon in the charming area of Rotherhithe, a historic maritime neighborhood.
Famous as the departure point of the Mayflower, Rotherhithe offers little houses, a gorgeous church, and a few sculptures, including Dr. Salter’s Daydream.
If you’re up for a walk along the water, you can head towards Bermondsey Beach and further down to the picturesque Shad Thames and Tower Bridge.
Strolling down St. Saviour’s Dock to reach Tower Bridge is magical, as the area is lined with old warehouses, still bearing the imprints of the past – an amazing place to walk through!

10 Days in London Itinerary: DAY 10
Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park and Victoria
What made me smile as I wrote this post is that the 10th day of our 10 days in London follows an itinerary I did a few months ago with a friend.
I’m planning to move back to London for my usual six months out of the year, and if I had to do it again, this is a day I’d relive over and over.
We’ll start at Regent’s Park, soaking in the neoclassical architecture of Buckingham Palace.
We’ll have a quick meal deal on a bench, watching people jog and stroll by with their kids, and after that, take a little walk around the Victoria area.
Our morning is short since most of our day will be spent at the Warner Bros. Harry Potter Studios, but don’t miss Little Ben, and if you have time for some quick shopping, there’s a well-stocked Superdrug for drugstore makeup right outside Victoria Station.
Read: Where to Have Lunch for £5 in London
Afternoon: Harry Potter Warner Bros Studios
A big part of our afternoon will be spent at the Harry Potter Studios, which I’ve reviewed a couple of times on the blog.
I always book the shuttle with Golden Tours when I visit—it’s just so much easier than figuring out how to get to Watford Junction on my own, and paying a little extra is fine if I can have peace of mind.
The Harry Potter Studios are a must-visit, especially if it’s your first time in London.
You’ll see everything from the costumes worn during the Yule Ball in the Harry Potter movies to various iconic sets.
There’s even a makeup and prosthetics corner – I won’t spoil the visit by telling you more about what you’ll find there; just know it’s all incredibly magical.
Last time I visited, I took the shuttle bus back to Victoria, getting off at Marble Arch to get dinner in Central London and from there, I walked down Oxford Street and had dinner at Pizza Pilgrims in Soho.
By the end of the day, I was completely exhausted, but it was one of the best ways to spend the last of our 10 days in London.

10 Days in London Itinerary – Secret Spots, Landmarks & Food
There you have it, my complete itinerary for 10 days in London – you’ll hopefully have found here secret places that you never knew existed in London.
As usual, I have chosen to start with some lesser-known places.
Ten days is more than enough to be able to see the London Eye and Big Ben, for instance, especially if you find yourself in places like Southbank and Hyde Park, both nearby.
This deep dive into London’s culture, who knows, may even trigger a need for you to actually move to London – and since a lot of the places mentioned are completely free, it’s also perfect if you’re traveling on a budget!
Until next time!
