A source-faithful two-day London stop focused on museums, landmarks and a Thames boat ride. Keep Find My iPhone enabled, as the traveler specifically noted after a phone theft that it was disabled.

A boat ticket was described as roughly £12 per person, but the fare may vary. The creator also reported that the V&A’s section holding the Maharashtra-related objects was closed for renovation and expected to reopen in 2028; check the museum’s current display information before visiting.
