London’s Eastside and Docklands by Coach
Discover London’s Eastside - the recently-developed Docklands area, with its new business centre, historic warehouses and churches, modern street art and site of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Imagine the transformation from a rural setting of market gardens, botanic gardens and country mansions to furniture-making, almshouses, heavy industry and slums — then to the artists’ studios, loft apartments and quirky fashions of the 21st century. Discover East London’s multicultural markets and restaurants, churches, mosques and synagogues.
Canary Wharf
Britain’s 2nd tallest tower, Napoleonic warehouses, penthouses, gardens, impressive public art, waterscapes, classy restaurants and bars and even a floating church. Visit the fascinating Museum in Docklands and learn about the history of Britain’s world trade.
Observe the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, then take a scenic trip on the Docklands Light Railway or by coach to the Royal Docks. Admire ExCeL Exhibition Centre, venue for 7 Olympic and 7 Paralympic sports, London City Airport, the incredible engineering feat of London’s flood defence, the Thames Barrier, and its beautifully landscaped park.
