Detailed London Paris Amsterdam Itinerary 10 days
Day 1: London – Historical Landmarks
If you choose to follow the order of this itinerary, then London is going to be your starting point. Before you head straight to the main attractions of London, we recommend taking a brief sightseeing tour via hop on hop off bus. This gives you a complete orientation tour of London following major attractions like Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, St. Paul’s Cathedral, London Eye, and London Bridge.
If you plan on taking a guided sightseeing bus or walking tour, we’d recommend doing it on the first day of your London trip.
Westminster Abbey
Westminster Abbey is one of London’s most influential churches. This gothic structure dates back to 1245, housing grand coronation ceremonies of England’s many monarchs, royal weddings, events, and the final rites of Princess Diana. As you tour the insides of Westminster Abbey, you’ll find hundreds of tombs and memorials of the famous people of Britain. This list of names includes people from different streams of mastery, such as scientists, artists, politicians, and royalty. Even Sir Isaac Newton and Charles Darwin are buried at the Abbey.
To visit Westminster Abbey, you’ll need to leave early from your hotel. As the site is popular, it’s often crowded with tourists exploring the landmark. If you’re self-guiding, an audiobook is handed to you to make the most of your time spent in Westminster. Alternatively, this guided tour will allow you to skip the line to get fast track entry into the church.
Currently, the site has opened its main section of the Abbey for the tour. It approx costs £5/person. You can get more details on their official website here.
St. James’s Park
Before we head out to Buckingham Palace, we recommend taking a short stroll through one of London’s most evergreen spots – St. James’s Park.
Known for its lush greenery, the 50-acre land of St. James’s Park is one of London’s eight royal parks. It’s often a hangout place for most youth, college students, and senior citizens. If you need to take a break, there’s a small cafe within the park to sip tea or coffee.
Around the park, you’ll come across the Guards Museum, showcasing the story of the five British regiments who have protected the royal palaces to date. The museum houses many artefacts which belonged to the regiment unit of British Foot Guards. If you’re interested, you may need to pay a small fee of £8/person to enter.
Buckingham Palace
Buckingham Palace is one of the UK’s most historical landmarks. If you’re a first-time traveller to London, you shouldn’t miss out on exploring the Palace, as it is genuinely one of the most beautiful experiences you’ll have.
Buckingham Palace has been an epicentre of royal London, serving as both a residential and administrative headquarters.
Back in 1703, the Palace was built for the Duke of Buckingham as a small townhouse, but later it got acquired and transformed by King George III. Since then, Buckingham has become a residential palace for British monarchs, including notable names – Queen Victoria, Edward VII, George IV, and many more.
With the help of a guided tour, you’ll briefly understand the importance of the royal heritage in London and the family’s descendants who came into power. The eventful stories, consequential past and significant moments get enlightened as you tour the Buckingham Palace.
But, it’s not only the history that will excite you, it’s the grand tour of the Palace that will enrich your experience. Buckingham Palace is home to around 775 royal rooms, including 20 staterooms, 188 bedrooms, staff, office spaces, a swimming pool, grand halls, a post office and even a police station. The Grand Hall and The State Dining Room are the most famous out of all these rooms. Most likely, you’ll tour these sections in addition to massive outer gardens, tennis courts, and lakes.
Even if you aren’t doing a Buckingham Palace tour, make sure not to miss their Changing of the Guard ceremony. It happens at 11 am on the forecourt of the PalacePalace on most days. Moreover, the event can also get cancelled due to weather or security concerns.
London Eye
There isn’t a better viewing spot than the London Eye to soak in the city’s striking vistas.
Deemed Europe’s giant observation wheel, the London Eye is a perfect place to get panoramic views. You may explore London all you want and go on sightseeing and walking tours – but nothing can beat the experience of taking a ride on this wheel. They even have private pods served with complimentary champagne to make your visit special.
The London Eye usually opens late, making it ideal for tourists to come and enjoy their evening. On a fantastic sunny day, the sunset views from the eye get even better. But, if you’re unlucky – given the bad weather – I’d rather skip the ride to take another alternative.
Tickets prices for the London Eye can be found here. Try to avoid purchasing the tickets via the ticket desk, as they tend to cost a little higher than the online price. For a refundable pass, purchase your fast track tickets from GetYourGuide.

Day 2: London – Exploring the City & Southwark
Today, we explore some of London’s oldest and most modern buildings set right in the heart of its financial center. Moreover, we also take a tour to the London Borough of Southwark, where you’ll find numerous unique attractions like HMS Belfast, the Imperial War Museum, The Shard, and Southwark Cathedral.
Tower of London
The first sight to explore on day two of the London city tour is the iconic Tower of London. Initially, in 1078 the tower was built in the name of a royal castle to act as a defense tower. But, over a few centuries, its purposes expanded – acting more like a prison, army base, defensive fortress, and Royal Mint.
Today, in this modern world, the Tower of London has become a UNESCO World Heritage Site – popularly known for its history and as an execution site of Lady Jane Grey and Queen Anne.
The Tower of London isn’t the prettiest of all structures in London, but if you marvel at Gothic architecture – it will be a splendid site visit for you. Nonetheless, its historical importance and surrounding attractions make the Tower of London a must-visit place in the city.
Once you’re here, opt for a guided tour to learn about the site’s past development. Ensure you visit all its highlights, including the Crown Jewels, the White Tower, and the Tower Green. Alternatively, the tickets will be free if you’ve got your London City Card.
St. Paul’s Cathedral
St. Paul’s Cathedral has been an essential landmark in the history of the UK. It’s a gorgeous piece of architecture, standing right in the middle of the city, boasting historical flair to all visitors who travel.
The cathedral’s dome is its main distinguishable feature, and the church has been an important spiritual place for all communities to pray and worship. It was seen as the symbol of spirit back in World War II.
Along with regular prayer services and Sunday masses, the church has actively been a place of royal events. This includes the wedding of Prince Charles and Diana, the funeral rites of Winston Churchill, and other royal services for Queen Elizabeth II.
If you self-guide St. Paul’s Cathedral, you’ll have access to the audio guidebook to learn about its development. Alternatively, you can take this guided tour of the cathedral to explore the crypt and the dome. You also get access to visit the Whispering Gallery and the Stone and Garden Galleries.
Borough Market
If you want to visit the oldest market ever known, then Borough Market is your place. It’s believed that the entire stretch of Borough has been in the area since 1014.
Though the market is the oldest in the UK, it’s as modern as you’d typically imagine. The energetic vibes of the locals, the hustle-bustle of street vendors, and the chirping of local tourists bargaining for the price – always make you feel lively.
As you explore the Borough Market, you’ll find vendors selling various meats and produce, farm-fresh vegetables, fruits, dairy products, artisans’ cheese, baked goods, wines, and other food-related stuff. Many restaurants, cafes, and kitchens are a part of the Borough Market, and small stalls sell packed foods of all street type cuisine.
If you’re interested in taking a slight detour from Borough Market, we recommend this top-rated tour to make your day two more exciting. This is optional and can be added to the itinerary as per your preference.
Note: The Borough Market is mainly closed on Sundays, and during the rest of the week, the market is open from 10 am to 5 pm.
London Bridge and Tower Bridge
The London Bridge and Tower Bridge are two famous icons of London, and both represent the history of London and have been recognizable landmarks since their inception.
London Bridge has been standing tall since the Roman days. However, most of the restoration work and its pillars were newly built in the 1970s. Next to the bridge is the London Bridge Experience, a visually interactive session taking you across the darker times of London’s history.
Tower Bridge is one of London’s other landmarks standing tall next to the London Bridge, and it’s a suspension bridge built somewhere between 1886 and 1894. To get an excellent photo of the Tower Bridge, you may need to head to one side of the Thames or across the Potters Fields Park adjacent to the south bank.
Free Time to Explore
The rest of your day in London is free for leisure activities. Check our below recommendations to add it your itinerary.
Travel Tip: We recommend getting the London City Card which is valid for 1,2,3,6 or 10 days. Most of the London attractions listed in this itinerary are included in the city pass, granting you fast track access to tour the place. Additionally, you’ll save a lot more than you would paying for individual sights.
Day 3: London – Day Trip to Cotswolds
With its fairy-tale villages, green rolling hills, and honey-hued cottages, Cotswolds is one dreamy land that takes you through a sublime English countryside. It has been a favorite getaway destination for tourists landing in London to visit and explore its charming atmosphere.
In this day-trip excursion from London, we visit Cotswold’s famous villages – Cheltenham and Chipping Camden. If you need a detailed itinerary for Cotswolds, we have a separate guide detailing towns to visit, things to do, accommodation, and a planning checklist.
Cheltenham Village
Cheltenham is popularly known as the ‘Western Gateway of Cotswolds.’ This vibrant town is filled with spirited people, local markets, beautiful gardens, and pristine parks. Stroll across the thatched roof cottages of Cheltenham and get your photography skills honed to snap amazing shots.
After your exploration, stop by Cheltenham Art Gallery to discover numerous ancient artifacts & intriguing objects celebrating local pioneers. Later, wander off to tour the Imperial Square and Gardens that houses beautiful Georgian homes.
Chipping Camden
Before reaching Chipping Camden, take a short detour to stop at Snowshill. The place is popularly known for its Broadway Tower, which you climb to grab 360-degree views of the villages spanning around.
Upon your arrival at Chipping Camden, tour its famous sites – St. James’ Church, Ancient Market Hall, and Alms Houses. You can also drive to Dover’s Hill, which is only 10-minutes away from the main market square.
Spend your evening at the town of Dover’s Hill and then bid farewell to Cotswolds for your trip back to London.
Alternative: If you don’t prefer a day-trip to Cotswolds, feel free to exclude this from your itinerary. As alternatives – we can recommend taking day-trips to Stonehenge, WB Harry Potter Studio or Oxford.
Where to stay in London? The capital city has tons of accommodation options to choose from, including some of the most budgeted yet decent ones. In the later section of this guide, you will get a comprehensive idea of the hotel part.
Day 4: Train to Paris
Today, we will depart for Paris from London.
You will need to take Eurostar, the direct and most convenient transport mode to reach Paris from the UK. It approx takes 2 hours and 25 minutes to travel across the underground tunnel to enter France. It’s the longest underwater tunnel ever built (31 miles long), and it only takes Eurostar 35 minutes to complete the stretch of the tunnel.
Here’s a complete timetable of the train arrivals and departures for you to take the Eurostar. Additionally, refer to this pricing sheet to get an approx cost idea. Usually, the trips start from €59 and can differ when booked on weekends.
Upon your arrival in Paris, the rest of the day is free for leisure.
Alternatively, you can plan a free walking tour of Paris to get briefly acquainted with the city’s landmarks & sights. We also recommend taking on the Seine River Cruise to spend your evening comfortably.
Day 5: Paris – Exploring Parisian Landmarks
Today, we explore Parisian Icons.
Eiffel Tower
There’s no better place than the Eiffel Tower to start your Paris trip!
Being the most common tourist landmark of all, Eiffel Tower still holds its charm and elegance to attract visitors worldwide. Especially for first-time travellers – visiting Eiffel Tower is a dream.
Upon your arrival at the site, you’ll have multiple options to explore the Eiffel Tower. If you want to admire its architecture, head to Trocadero Gardens or Champ de Mars gardens to get the best angle. You even picnic here, spending quality time with your family and friends.
Moreover, if you want to tour the insides, you can take the stairs or an elevator to reach the upper floors. Tickets for an elevator ride will need to be booked well in advance to avoid hassles. They often get sold out fast, and you may want to reserve them for the best experience.
The third option is to book a guided tour of the Eiffel Tower. This is probably the easiest and most convenient method since the tour operator will already manage your tickets. Additionally, you’ll get the skip-the-line advantage clubbed with the ‘summit floor’ exploration. For more details, view this catalogue.
Champs-Elysees
Post your sight-seeing at the Eiffel Tower, and go further down the street to stroll Champs-Elysees.
Starting from Place de la Concorde, the Avenue des Champs-Elysees is one of the world’s most vibrant and beautiful streets. It’s a great exploration place to tour some of the typical Parisian sights, landmarks, and, more importantly, Paris ” s shopping culture. As you stroll up the Champs-Elysees, you’ll discover famous luxury boutiques such as Montblanc, Guerlain, Louis Vuitton, and world-class French restaurants.
Champs-Elysees is also a place for hosting grand events such as the Tour de France cycle race, the 14th July military parade and other Christmas festivities and enchanting markets. Ultimately, it’s a perfect place to unwind and appreciate the tranquillity of the Champs-Elysees atmosphere.
Arc de Triomphe
A short 9-minute walk from Champs-Elysees will take you across one of Paris’s beloved attractions – Arc de Triomphe.
It’s one of the best places in the city to soak in fantastic views of the roads spanning out to various districts. Moreover, the views stretch out to Eiffel Tower, Champs Elysees and the Louvre. There’s also a museum on top of the Arc de Triomphe dedicated to an unnamed soldier.
Note: Exploring the interiors of Arc de Triomphe carries a small fee, and you will get free access with skip-the-line advantage if you’ve got your Paris Pass.
Day 6: Paris – Museums & Historical Monuments
Get ready to witness the charm of Parisian museums & top historical sites.
Sainte Chapelle
Saint Chapelle is a small, royal chapel located on the Île de la Cité boasting gothic-style architecture.
The highlight of visiting this chapel is its gorgeous display of stained glass units lined from floor to ceiling. Though the chapel is small in size, and you wouldn’t expect something so beautiful to see – the intricate designs these glasses hold are remarkable.
Like the Eiffel Tower and Louvre, Saint Chapelle can get crowded. Hence, we wanted to keep this place as a starting point of your day trip to Paris to avoid crowds. Moreover, the Museum Pass will provide the skip-the-line advantage on your arrival.
Notre Dame Cathedral
Located 10-minutes from Sainte Chapelle is one of Paris’s notable attractions – Notre Dame Cathedral.
The site’s construction took the longest, nearly 200 years to build and was finally inaugurated in 1345. Currently, you can only tour the outer grounds of Notre Dame Cathedral because of its restoration work.
An unfortunate fire broke out in 2019, causing heavy damage to its pillars and many structures. However, don’tdon’t be disappointed – as you can still access the cathedral’s parvis and outer facade.
Furthermore, you can also visit nearby landmarks like Conciergerie and Au Vieux d’Arcoled’Arcole (the prettiest cafe).
Musee d’Orsay
Visiting Musee d’Orsay is a different experience altogether, and it does stand out differently when you compare it with other museums within Paris.
The first notable highlight of Musee d’Orsay is its location. The same place where you see all events, exhibitions, and displays set up was once Paris’sParis’s central train station. The upper rooftop design and its pillars are intact in their original state with a touch of heavy restoration work.
The second feature Musee d’Orsay boasts is the artwork. The museum is home to the world’s most significant Impressionist art, showcasing the fine work of Van Gogh, Monet, Manet, and Gaugin. It’sIt’s paradisal
Montmarte
Day 7: Paris – Versailles & The Louvre
Today, we hit the two major attractions of Paris – Versailles & The Louvre.
Palace of Versailles
Nestled on the outskirts of Paris, Versailles is an important historical site in France. This royal chateau has been home to great names of the French Royalty, including Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI. The Palace is also known for its French political power that came into existence in 1682. It was, however, ended during the French Revolution – making the power shift to the city of Paris.
History buffs will indeed find the Palace an exciting place, and so a regular visitor who admires beautiful architecture. Moreover, the Palace of Versailles boasts 2,300 rooms inside and prominent locations such as Battles Gallery, Hall of Mirrors, Marie-Antoinette’s Bedrooms, and the King’s Apartments.
Furthermore, the French-styled gardens and their outer grounds will mesmerize anyone with their adoring beauty.
If it’s your first-time visit to the Versailles, you need to plan your schedule well. Since the Palace is massive enough to be explored, it could take hours and hours for you to explore all of its grand rooms. However, time your exploration well, and you’ll be good to tour the Palace smoothly.
The Louvre Museum
The Louvre Museum in Paris is one of the places you can’t miss to include in your itinerary. It’s my favourite museum in Europe, and it certainly is worth visiting.
Like the Palace of Versailles, the Lourve is a place for all art lovers and history buffs. Even if you don’t admire art or don’t get much fascinated by history – the museum’s sheer scale of architectural beauty will leave you spellbound.
The Louvre is one of the world’s largest museums, and it can take days for you to explore its legendary artwork, magnificent paintings, and other historical displays. But, don’t bother much about the time – as you’ll love every minute spent.
Famous paintings of Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Michelangelo’s Dying Slave, and the Venus de Milo are displayed here, and it certainly is the “most-watched” painting of all. The only downside is the crowd, as the Louvre tends to be busy during the peak season, and you’ll often find tourists jamming up at a certain point, which isn’t a pleasant experience to witness.
To avoid crowds at the Louvre, ensure you make an early visit. Please arrive during the opening hours, or probably late in the evening. The museum is open until 9.45 pm on Wednesday and Friday, which is relatively a quieter time to explore.
You can also purchase this timed-ticket which guarantees an entry within 30 minutes.

Day 8: Train to Amsterdam

It’s modern, luxurious, and a feasible option – making you reach your destination within 3 hours and 20 minutes. The fare starts from €35, and you will need to book your tickets well in advance to make a reservation (upto 120 days in advance).

Note: Try to make your reservations to reach Amsterdam early in the day. This way, you’ll have the rest of your afternoon & evening for your half-day trips & sight-seeing tours.
Anne Frank House
Undoubtedly, a visit to Amsterdam is incomplete without exploring the Anne Frank House.
You may have already heard the story of Anne Frank and her family, who hid in the basement of her house for almost two and a half years. The world war scenes outside made the situation worse for all the family members in the area, especially for the Franks’ who had to save themselves from the brutal concentration camps.
Today, the family’s home is a tourist attraction to recount their life exploring leftovers & displays. During your tour, you’ll see many of its rooms, photos, artifacts, and the basement where they hid.
Travel Tip: Book your tickets two months (60 days before your trip). Anne Frank is one of the major tourist attractions in Amsterdam, and the tickets get sold lightning fast. You can check the official website for more details on tickets and pricing.
Van Gogh and Rijksmuseum
With 2 days in Amsterdam, you can be sure to visit at least two of its world-class museums – Van Gogh and Rijksmuseum.
It doesn’t matter if you admire art or not, visiting these two museums in Amsterdam has to be your top-most priority. Apart from being Netherland’s most popular sites, they are fantastic in displaying artistic paintings, contemporary art, and historical displays.
Visiting Van Gogh is an experience altogether. The museum is dedicated to the famous Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh, who has 200 of his paintings stored in the museum. Van Gogh Museum is comparatively much more petite than Rijksmuseum and will only take an hour to explore.
Rijksmuseum is massive. Exploration at this museum can take 3-4 hours, depending on the time you take to browse through all the objects. It houses around 8,000 Dutch art and history displays created by famed artists like Frans Hals and Rembrandt.
Evening Canal Cruise
Nothing can be more perfect than an evening canal cruise to end your day in Amsterdam.
Amsterdam is home to beautiful canals, narrowing across Dutch houses and cute little bridges. An evening boat ride can level up your experience to witness the charm and tranquility of the city’s pleasing aura.
There are many cruises to choose from, and it entirely depends on your choice, duration, and budget. We’ve listed a few options for you to browse through –
Day 9: Amsterdam – City Exploration
Your day two in Amsterdam takes you around some of the city’s influential highlights and unique attractions.
Exploring the Dam Square and the Royal Palace
Start your exploration of Amsterdam by hitting the main square. It’s a 10-minute walk from the primary central station via Nieuwendijk. Once you reach, you’ll come across these significant landmarks – the National Monument, Nieuwe Kerk Church, and the Royal Palace of Amsterdam.
You can take a guided tour of all the main square’s attractions in one bundle. Ensure you tour the Royal Palace of Amsterdam to marvel at the wealth and sculptures stored inside. It was formerly a town hall, which later got converted into a residential unit for the royal family.
The Amsterdam Dungeon
Next on your stop is the Amsterdam Dungeon, known for the dark history related to Netherland’s past.
It’s an interactive based tour where you’ll watch staged actors performing several acts depicted in the history of the Netherlands. Moreover, the stage performances happen in different phases or timelines of the record, showcasing the Spanish inquisition trail and an act of torture.
The entry fee to the Amsterdam Dungeon is free if you’ve got your I Amsterdam City Card. It’s best to acquire one to get access to numerous tourist places & sites within Amsterdam. You’ll save much more than you’d pay individually for each of the attractions mentioned in our 2 days of Amsterdam section.
The Flower Market
The Flower Market, or Bloemenmarkt (as known in the local language), is a unique tourist spot in Amsterdam.
If you’re not aware, the Netherlands is known to house the iconic flower – the tulip. Separate tours are departing, especially to see the tulip season in the country. It’s a magical experience, and we would surely recommend taking a trip (between March and May) to see 7 million tulips blooming in action.
Visitors who are not traveling during the tulip season can head to the Flower Market. You’ll see hundreds of varieties of these tulips in different colors getting sold, and most of them even sell as bulbs, which you store at home.
It’s also a good gifting item to surprise your loved one!
Zuiderkerk and Nieuwmarkt
Stroll around the Kloveniersburgwal canal, and you’ll soon spot Zuiderkerk church. Climb up the bell tower to soak in panoramic views of the entire Amsterdam city. Please note that you’ll only be able to do a climb with a tour guide. Also, there are specific timings that allow you to climb up.
As you continue further down the canal, you’ll come across at Nieuwmarkt market. It looks like a castle straight out of a fairy-tale book, but in reality, it’s a small local market housing excellent cafes & restaurants.
Pick your Ending
You have the choice of giving a fitting finale to your 10 day London, Paris Amsterdam itinerary.
The first option is to explore the famous church of Amsterdam – Oude Kerk. Being the oldest church in the city, the elegance and gloriousness remain modern. The exterior is built with red bricks, and its windows have massive stained glass units.
The second alternative is to bike around across the canals of Amsterdam. Pace your ride at your leisure and wander off the narrow streets, markets, and local attractions to briefly sight-see places you might’ve missed. Also, an evening bike ride is one of the cool things to do in Amsterdam.
The third option is to spend time in Harlem. It’s a 15-minute train ride from the main central station of Amsterdam. If it’s late in the evening, you won’t have much time to tour the surroundings, but you can grab a dinner and a few drinks to spend your last night of this Europe trip.
